Nifty 50 gained 1.1% over the five sessions to close at 23,622.9, still below its 200-day average and 10.3% off its 52-week high. The regime remains weak but recovering, with the near-term read neutral-to-up for a ninth consecutive day. The Stage-2 advancing cohort grew by 98 names to 605 stocks — 27% of the market — though the share of stocks above their 200-day average barely moved, from 35.1% to 35.2%, signalling a recovery that is real but still narrow.
How the week's internals shifted
Eighty-five stocks cleared the Stage 1-to-2 transition screen across the five sessions against just seven moving the other way, a net addition of 78 names to the advancing cohort. The Stage-2 share has now widened by roughly 4 over five days, 11 over twenty, and 15 over sixty — a consistent, if gradual, broadening. New 52-week highs closed the week at 127 against 82 new lows, a net positive of 45, and 25 golden crosses registered against only 2 death crosses. Financials led all sectors for the week at +2.4%, followed by Health Care at +1.4% and Consumer Staples at +1.2%. Information Technology was the week's clearest drag at -3.2%, with Utilities also negative at -2.6%.
Sector backdrop and screening results
The one-month and three-month pictures reinforce Industrials and Health Care as the screener's most consistent themes: Industrials leads both the one-month (+4%) and three-month (+16.3%) tables, while Health Care sits second over three months at +12%. Energy is the three-month laggard at -8.3%, yet its Stage-2 cohort is expanding fastest of any sector over the last 20 days, with Health Care and Materials also seeing rapid Stage-2 expansion — the screener is picking up early rotation into names that have been basing. Among fresh breakouts this week, Industrials names dominate: Sanghvi Movers Ltd scored highest in the sector at 7.0, with Unimech Aerospace and Manufacturing Ltd and GE Power India Ltd also clearing the screen. Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corp Ltd and IVP Ltd represent the Materials breakouts. On the transition list, Raghav Productivity Enhancers Ltd (Materials, score 9.4) and SKM Egg Products Export India Ltd (Consumer Staples, 9.2) posted the cleanest setups among the week's 1→2 movers; Panacea Biotec Ltd and Supriya Lifescience Ltd add to the Health Care count. The sustained-setups table is anchored by Venus Remedies Ltd at 9.6 and Thangamayil Jewellery Ltd at 9.5 — names that have held Stage-2 structure across multiple sessions.
