Stock market today: Indian benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty 50, extended their winning streak to a fourth straight session on Monday, July 6, supported by the revival of the monsoon and renewed foreign institutional investor (FII) buying, which boosted market sentiment.
The Sensex climbed 521 points, or 0.67%, to settle at 78,285, while the Nifty 50 advanced 160 points, or 0.66%, to close at 24,430. Broader markets also ended in positive territory, with both the mid-cap and small-cap indices posting gains.
However, the market is likely to open in green as trends in the Gift Nifty index signalled a positive start on Tuesday, 7 July. Gift Nifty was trading near the 24,578 mark, up over 95 points from the previous close of Nifty futures.
“Indian equities are expected to trade with a constructive bias, supported by favourable global cues, resilient domestic fundamentals and improving investor sentiment. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) have turned net buyers over the past two sessions, reflecting improving risk appetite as geopolitical tensions ease and weaker-than-expected U.S. labour market data reinforce expectations of a less hawkish Federal Reserve. Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) have also maintained steady buying, providing continued support to the market and reinforcing the positive underlying tone,” said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
As the market is pointing towards a negative/positive start, some stocks are likely to remain in focus on Tuesday due to their own positive/negative triggers.
