Nifty outlook: The Nifty 50 could rally past 26,000 in the near term and potentially climb to 40,000 over the longer term, said Laurence Balanco, Technical Analyst at CLSA, who sees a major bullish breakout developing in Indian equities. He has identified 26,300 as the upper end of his immediate target range, while a move beyond that level could pave the way for a much larger rally towards 31,000-40,000. Speaking to CNBC-TV18 on Monday, Balanco said a Nifty close above 25,500 by November-end would generate a long-term buy signal -- the first since August 2020. His bullish outlook follows a sharp recovery in Indian equities, with the Nifty surging 8.58 percent last week and reclaiming the 25,000 mark for the first time since February 27.
