Stock market today: The Indian stock market witnessed broad-based buying on Monday, July 27, with benchmark indices surging around 1% each to snap their five-session losing streak.
The 30-share Sensex rallied 776 points, or 1.02%, to close at 76,835.78, while the NSE Nifty 50 climbed 229 points, or 0.96%, to settle at 23,995.95.
However, the market is likely to open on a muted note as trends in the Gift Nifty index signalled a negative start on Tuesday, 28 July. Gift Nifty was trading near the 23,986 mark, down over 42 points from the previous close of Nifty futures.
“Indian markets are expected to trade cautiously, balancing an improving geopolitical backdrop against renewed volatility in global technology stocks. The U.S. continues to pause strikes on Iran, keeping hopes of a diplomatic resolution alive, although investors remain cautious as markets await tangible progress in the ongoing negotiations. Early indications from Gift Nifty futures, trading around the 24,000 mark, point to a largely flat start for domestic equities,” said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
As the market is pointing towards a negative start, some stocks are likely to remain in focus on Tuesday due to their own positive/negative triggers.
