Stock Market Today: Quiet Tension as Earnings and Trade Clouds Hover
Good morning, traders. It’s Friday, and while the week’s almost over, the market mood is anything but relaxed.
Expect a soft start today, with the GIFT Nifty hinting at a gap-down of around 150 points. Not a crash, just a cautious step back. Thursday’s close wasn’t exactly thrilling either, Sensex fell 345 points, Nifty dropped 120, not due to panic, but more like a collective “hmm” from the street.
What’s behind it? A mix of global trade unease (yes, of course tariff chatter is back), some underwhelming earnings (TCS, is looking at you), and muted cues from the derivatives space.
Volatility is low, but so is conviction. The Put-Call Ratio sits at 0.69, hinting at a bearish undertone. IT might remain under pressure, and with no big domestic trigger, stock-specific moves will likely take center stage.
It’s not fear- just a market choosing to tiptoe instead of sprint. So keep your coffee strong and your positions smarter. Let’s see how Friday unfolds.
Cautious Optimism at the Open, But Don’t Blink!
Good morning, traders. It’s Friday, and GIFT Nifty is offering a mildly upbeat tone, down just 38 points at 25,298 as of 8:50 AM- not exactly fireworks, but not doom and gloom either. After Thursday’s dip, this tepid start feels more like a reset than a retreat. In early morning trading, the GIFT Nifty was trading at 25,283, down 127 points or 0.5 percent.
Global cues are still tiptoeing around tariff worries and macro uncertainty, but early signs hint at selective buying. Think cautious optimism rather than full-blown FOMO. With earnings season warming up and key global signals in the mix, today could quietly turn interesting.
Tight setups, disciplined entries, and a sharp eye, that’s the trader’s toolkit for today. Because sometimes, it’s the quiet opens that throw the loudest surprises.
The Indian Stock Market benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty opened with a flat start (9:15 AM). Nifty at 25,255.50 with −99.75 points, Whereas Sensex opened at 82,813.99 with −376.29 from previous session.
Global tariff talk and Trump’s tariff shocks are rattling markets, but the Indian share bazaar isn’t losing sleep. While others sweat, Dalal Street’s showing some serious resilience—steady, calm, and ready to dance through the storm. Looks like the bulls have packed their raincoats and aren’t backing down anytime soon.
Brent crude took a dip of nearly 2% on Thursday, keeping traders on their toes. The price action is moving sideways for now, as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is comfortably oscillating between 40 and 60—meaning neither buyers nor sellers are in full control yet. Watch closely around the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) zone between USD 71 and USD 71.50; this is a key resistance level where Brent might struggle to break higher. On the downside, immediate support lies around USD 67.50 to USD 67.30. So, if you’re trading Brent, keep an eye on these levels for the next move
The market sentiments are heavily influenced by many things happening around the world. From geopolitical tensions to investor sentiments, all these factors are affects the Indian stock market.

Markets weren’t in the mood to party on Thursday! The Indian equity indices wrapped up the session in the red, dragging investor spirits down along with them. The Sensex slipped 345.80 points (that’s a 0.41% drop—ouch!) to close at 83,190.28, while the Nifty lost 120.85 points, ending the day at 25,355.25—a 0.47% dip.
So what happened? Blame it on weak earnings vibes, lingering trade tensions, and maybe just a general lack of enthusiasm on Dalal Street. Even with positive cues trying to cheer things up globally, our indices just didn’t want to play along.
If you were refreshing your portfolio hoping for green—sorry, it was more of a tomato-red kind of day. But hey, markets breathe too. Sometimes they inhale, sometimes they exhale. And today? Well, they let out a sigh.
Let’s see what Friday brings—some fresh energy, or just more market moodiness? Stay tuned and stay diversified!
