Stock Market LIVE Updates: GIFT Nifty indicates a gap‑up start; US, Asian markets trade higher
Indian equity markets opened on a positive note on Monday, with the Nifty trading above 26,100 and the Sensex rising over 500 points. Mid-cap and small-cap indices also saw gains, reflecting broad-based strength. The GIFT Nifty, which serves as a key pre-market indicator for Indian equities, suggested a gap-up start, signaling optimism influenced by positive global cues. US and Asian markets trading higher provided additional support for domestic equities. Among the Nifty 50 stocks, top performers included Shriram Finance, Infosys, Bharti Airtel, ICICI Bank, and Reliance. Sector-wise, capital goods, metals, IT, and banking stocks contributed significantly to the market's upward movement. Analysts noted that while the overall market sentiment remains upbeat, investors should remain cautious about potential short-term volatility, especially in mid- and small-cap segments. Market participants are also closely monitoring foreign institutional investor (FII) and domestic institutional investor (DII) activity, along with crude oil prices and bond yields, for cues on the market’s direction.
