News Topical, Digital Desk : Stock Market Action: The week beginning October 27th will be a busy one for the stock market, with investors closely monitoring corporate results, the US Federal Reserve's interest rate decision, and macroeconomic data. Analysts believe that Q2FY26 results and global events will together determine the market's future direction.

Ajit Mishra, SVP Research at Religare Broking Ltd., said that quarterly results of several major companies
are expected this week, including Kotak Mahindra Bank, IOC, TVS Motor, Larsen & Toubro, Hindustan Petroleum, ITC, Cipla, Dabur, Maruti, and ACC. These results will have a significant impact on investor strategies. 

Key data to be released: India's industrial production data, due on October 28th, could also influence market sentiment. The US Federal Reserve's decision on interest rate cuts on October 29th will determine global liquidity and risk sentiment. Meanwhile, the market is also closely monitoring the proposed presidential meeting between the US and China, which could prove crucial in reducing trade tensions. Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money, said that progress in India-US trade talks could be a positive sign for investors. He noted that the two countries are very close to a bilateral trade agreement, although Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal has clarified that India will not rush into any deal. Siddharth Khemka of Motilal Oswal Financial Services said this will be a macro-heavy week, with investors monitoring US GDP, Fed and ECB interest rate decisions, China's manufacturing PMI, and India's industrial production data. Last week, the BSE Sensex gained 259.69 points and the NSE Nifty jumped 85.3 points. All eyes are now on this week's major announcements, which will determine whether the next direction will be up or down.
