Stocks To Watch Today: Before digging in te list of stocks, lets take a quick update on the market trends. The Indian stock market is ready to open on a positive note this Friday, with Sensex and Nifty 50 expected to ride supportive global signals, plus a bit of optimism around a potential US–Iran peace breakthrough. Gift Nifty is trading in positive for aover 100 points, which really looks like a soft green start for Dalal Street, pretty composed, measured, and maybe just a touch suspicious. Now Globally, Across Asia, the atmosphere stays upbeat, with Japan’s Nikkei jumping more than 2%, while Hong Kong and South Korea are also trading higher. Wall Street kept the tone steady overnight, with the Dow Jones even ticking to a fresh record close, despite some tech softness coming from Nvidia. So on the face of it, everything seems to be lining up. Yet ask any trader, and they’ll say this is precisely how Fridays love to mask themselves under surprises. The Brent crude is back above $104 into the picture, and inflation starts to feel closer again, like it’s knocking at the door. With expiry-day positioning running in the background, the only real certainty today is uncertainty, and the opening hour might very well decide the theme for the whole day’s plot twist.
