Stocks to Watch Today: Markets Wake Up To A Very Eventful Weekend

If you were to think the new year would come in without much noise, then you are wrong because markets have different plans. The Sensex and Nifty50 are going to look for guidance from a global backdrop that has changed a lot over the weekend, since there are no major domestic triggers on the calendar.

The early signals were very positive. GIFT Nifty futures at 7:10 AM increased by 79.1 points to 26,534.5, indicating a strong opening bell. However, with the markets absorbing the new developments, the momentum slowed down. At 8:25 AM, GIFT Nifty was around 26,552, gaining about 19 points and demonstrating how fast the mood is changing.

The Asia-Pacific markets opened the first full trading week of 2026 with a strong bullish trend after the US attacked and took control of oil-rich Venezuela and reportedly arrested President Nicolas Maduro, who was said to be connected to oil-related narco-terrorism charges. Japan’s Nikkei 225 soared as the defence sector did well, and South Korea’s Kospi and Australia’s ASX 200 also moved up.
