Ready for a bumpy ride? Indian markets are set to open lower, spooked by a curveball from US President Trump—yes, again—who just slapped a 25% tariff on Indian goods starting tomorrow. GIFT Nifty is down 196 points at 24,650 (ouch!). Meanwhile, Asia’s a mixed bag: Nikkei’s up 0.21%, Kospi dipped 0.14%, and Aussie markets slid 0.53%. In the US, Jerome Powell poured cold water on rate-cut hopes, dragging the S&P 500 and Dow down. Only the Nasdaq managed a tiny win. Buckle up—global jitters and tariff drama could make today anything but boring! Watching closely? We all are!

Here Is How The Stock Market Might Lead Today

Likely to See Pressure
- Export-Oriented Companies
  Tata Motors, Infosys, TCS, Dr. Reddy’s, Sun Pharma
  Why: US President Trump’s 25% tariff on Indian goods (effective Aug 1) may hit export-driven sectors like IT, pharma, auto components, and textiles.
- Metal & Steel Stocks
  Tata Steel, JSW Steel, Hindalco
  Why: Rising US-Asia trade tensions, including new tariffs on South Korea, may dampen global demand and put pressure on metal prices.
- Rate-Sensitive Stocks
  HDFC Bank, SBI, Bajaj Finance
  Why: Fed Chair Powell’s comments reduced hopes of a September rate cut, limiting prospects for global monetary easing.
Potential Gainers
- Domestic-Focused FMCG & Consumer Stocks
  HUL, Dabur, Britannia, Titan
  Why: Largely shielded from global trade noise; may benefit from defensive investor positioning in uncertain times.
- Power & Renewable Energy
  NTPC, Adani Green, Tata Power
  Why: Continued positive sentiment driven by energy transition momentum and policy support at home.
- Select Defense & PSU Stocks
  HAL, BEL, BEML
  Why: Potential government capex boost as India looks to reduce reliance on foreign defense suppliers amid strained trade ties.
Other Key Market Indicators
- GIFT Nifty Futures: Down 196 points at 24,650, indicating a weak open
- USD/INR: May face pressure due to trade tensions
- Crude Oil: Volatile; could impact oil marketing companies (IOC, BPCL, HPCL)
- Bank of Japan Policy: Awaited; could affect global bond yields and fund flows.
