Sensex Today
Sensex Today: Indian equity markets are poised to open on a positive note on Monday, buoyed by optimism around GST reforms, steady domestic institutional inflows, and mixed global cues.
However, lingering uncertainty over Trump-era tariff measures will keep investors watchful of global developments and FII activity through the session. At 8:25 AM, GIFT Nifty futures were trading 31.5 points higher at 24,879.
In the week ahead, key triggers include India and US inflation data, China’s NPC meeting, the European Central Bank’s interest rate decision, weekly US jobless claims, and potential updates on the India-US trade deal.
Global Cues
Asian markets opened higher on Monday as investors awaited Japan’s final April–June GDP growth figures and China’s August trade data due later in the day. Market participants are also digesting the resignation of Japan’s Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba announced over the weekend. At last check, Japan’s Nikkei 225 gained 1.7 percent, while South Korea’s KOSPI rose 0.21 percent.
On Wall Street, US equities ended lower on Friday, September 8, as a weaker-than-expected jobs report raised concerns about the pace of the economic recovery. The S&P 500 fell 0.32 percent, the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.48 percent, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.03 percent.
