Finolex Cables shares rose about 17% during the Muhurat trading session, a one-hour special session that Indian exchanges hold on Diwali to mark the start of the Hindu Samvat 2083 calendar year, with several other stocks also advancing. The move reflects the ceremonial nature of the session, where a symbolic rally often attracts retail participation and momentum buying in a thinly traded window that can exaggerate price swings in small and mid-cap names. Stocks with concentrated retail ownership and limited free float tend to be most exposed, since modest order flow can move prices sharply when institutional liquidity is absent. Traders should note that gains in such a compressed session frequently do not persist into regular trading, so the sustainability of the rally will depend on whether volumes and fundamentals carry into the next full session. The key near-term catalyst is the regular Samvat-year trading resumption and the follow-through volume in the days that follow.

Why this matters for traders
HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.
How active traders react to headlines like this
Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
