Stocks to Watch Today: If you were hoping for a fiery market open, you may want to keep that coffee strong, Indian equities are gearing up for a rather lukewarm start.
Mixed global cues have kept enthusiasm in check, and even the GIFT Nifty seems to be tiptoeing into Tuesday. At 06:54 AM, it was barely up by 6 points at 26,340. But fast-forward to 8:09 AM, and sentiment cooled further, with the index slipping to 26,320, down 25 points. Not exactly the pep you’d want, right?
What is the Global market mood today?
Asia-Pacific largely marched ahead, with South Korean automakers stealing the spotlight after the US rolled out retroactive tariff cuts. Meanwhile, Wall Street stumbled overnight as rising Treasury yields and stubborn manufacturing pressures weighed on investors. With the weekly Nifty derivatives expiry and key global data lined up today, traders may need to stay alert, because the real action might unfold after the opening bell.
