Indian benchmark indices look set to extend their winning streak for the fourth consecutive session on Thursday, supported by firm global cues and rising risk appetite across equity markets. Both the Sensex and Nifty50 are now trading less than 3 per cent below their record highs, suggesting sustained bullish momentum.
As of 7:45 AM, the GIFT Nifty was quoting 112 points or 0.44 per cent higher at 25,727, indicating a strong start for Indian equities.
Asian markets were largely in the green, taking cues from a robust overnight session on Wall Street. Japan’s Nikkei 225 was last up 1.5 per cent, while China’s CSI 300 gained 0.8 per cent, as investors cheered reports of the US and China finalising a trade agreement that was initially outlined during talks in Geneva last month.
US markets posted solid gains overnight, with the S&P 500 closing 0.8 per cent higher and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 0.94 per cent. Easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East - particularly between Iran and Israel - and signs of cooling consumer demand have revived hopes of a possible Federal Reserve rate cut in the coming months. Notably, Q1 consumer spending in the US registered its weakest growth since the onset of the pandemic, adding to expectations that monetary easing could arrive sooner than previously anticipated.
On the domestic front, Thursday saw sharp upward moves in benchmark indices. The BSE Sensex surged 1,000.36 points or 1.21 per cent to close at 83,755.87, while the Nifty50 climbed 304.25 points or 1.21 per cent to end at 25,549.00, driven by across-the-board buying and renewed investor optimism.
With global sentiment improving and domestic fundamentals remaining robust, traders will be watching closely to see whether the Nifty50 can make a decisive move toward its all-time high in the coming sessions.
