Top 12 Diwali Muhurat Trading stock picks 2026: Up to 41% gain! Buy Jio Platforms, Adani Ports, 10 more by KC Securities

The headline reports that KC Securities has published a list of 12 stock picks for the Diwali Muhurat trading session in 2026, including Jio Platforms and Adani Ports, with claimed upside of up to 41%. The recommendations are framed as tactical calls for a single, one-hour special session that traditionally signals the start of the Hindu new year, a window that has historically drawn retail participation and sentiment-driven buying in Indian equities. The main transmission channel is retail flow and short-horizon momentum rather than fundamentals, since the session's brief duration and ceremonial character tend to amplify positioning in large-cap names with high retail ownership. Jio Platforms and Adani Ports are the most directly exposed, given their prominence in index benchmarks and their sensitivity to broker-driven buying. Traders should watch the session's opening auction and volume profile in the first 15 minutes, as well as the following Monday's cash-market follow-through, to judge whether any Muhurat premium holds or reverses.

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.

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.
