Stocks To Watch Today: Let’s Dive Into The Charts Of The Stock Market Today
Indian equities show signs of starting the day with positive momentum. GIFT Nifty futures indicate a positive market opening, trading at 25,441, up 59 points from the previous close. The markets are set to begin the day on an upbeat note, reflecting improving global sentiment.
Across the Asia-Pacific region, markets continued Tuesday’s positive trend, tracking Wall Street’s strong performance. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 rose 0.12 per cent, while South Korea’s Kospi posted an impressive 1.27 per cent gain. Japan, however, lagged behind, with the Nikkei 225 slipping 0.79 per cent, reminding investors that gains remain uneven across markets.
Overnight, Wall Street delivered a mixed but optimistic performance. The S&P 500 advanced 0.41 per cent to close at a record high, marking its fifth consecutive day of gains. Investor sentiment was buoyed by expectations of upcoming megacap earnings, although a sharp sell-off in health insurer stocks led to mixed reactions. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.91 per cent, driven by strength in technology stocks, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.83 per cent amid pressure in select sectors.
Overall, global cues remain supportive, though volatility is selective. The Indian stock market is likely to open on a positive note today, provided earnings-related concerns do not weigh on sentiment early in the session. With the opening bell set to ring, investors should stay alert, surprises may still be in store.
