The post from S&P Global's Energy account spotlights a 13.2% year-over-year increase in India's power consumption for April to June, citing data from the Central Electricity Authority. The company attributes this surge partly to El Niño-driven heatwaves, which led to higher electricity use. Renewable energy expansion is also highlighted as a significant trend shaping the sector over the period. The sharp growth in demand stands out as the post's key development.

Bearish structure as gains retrace despite gap higher at open

Since the timing of the news release cannot be directly linked to the market move, no cause-and-effect sequence can be established. In the current session, the most notable action was a gap up at the open from $411.93 to $416.34, but much of that advance has since been retraced. Price currently sits below its MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200, which keeps the daily structure bearish, even as Stoch RSI has reached oversold territory, indicating limited room for further downside. The nearest resistance remains the Ichimoku Kijun at $421.18, capping any potential recovery for now.

Downside risk as weekly trend remains negative for S&P Global shares

Traders looking for confirmation about whether the recent demand-related move is gaining traction should focus on key levels in the coming sessions. The strongest signal for buyers is the gap up from the previous close of $411.93 to the session open at $416.34, though part of this move has faded during the day. For the coming trading week, the upside probability stands at 26% while the downside probability is 74%, with an expected trading range between $402.19 and $430.3. A close above $421.18 would indicate buyers are willing to follow through, while a drop below $404.54 would suggest the move is being rejected. On the weekly chart, the longer-term outlook for S&P Global stock remains firmly negative.

Earlier, analysts noted that S&P Global was experiencing sustained bearish pressure with limited prospects for a near-term rebound. With the longer-term outlook still negative despite recent demand-driven headlines, traders should closely watch for a decisive close above $421.18 or below $404.54 to gauge the next directional move.
