The BSE Sensex jumped 418.81 points to close at Rs 81,018.72, while the NSE Nifty ended the day above 24,700 at 24,722.75 with a gain of 157.4.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">In the broader market, the BSE Midcap Index was trading higher by 1.11% and the BSE Smallcap Index was up by 0.76%<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Among the 30 shares on the Sensex, a total of 26 ended the day in green. Among the top gainers were Tata Steel (4.05% up), Bharat Electronics (3.55%), Adani Ports (3.46%), TCS (2.55%), and Tech Mahindra (2.46).<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">However, four companies closed in red \u2014 PowerGrid (down 1.01%), HDFC Bank (-0.86%), ICICI Bank (-0.60%), and Hindustan Unilever (-0.25%).<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Sector-wise, metals and auto were the top gainers on the Nifty, rising by 2.48% and 1.61%, respectively.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">\u201cIn the near-term the market is in unchartered territory. A clear direction will emerge on news surrounding the US-India trade deal happening after the next round of trade negotiations. A deal with a tariff of 20% or below will be positive from the market perspective. If this doesn\u2019t happen, and the 25% tariff remains, the market is likely to drift down since it will impact India\u2019s growth and corporate earnings making it difficult to justify the current elevated valuations,&#8221; V K Vijayakumar, chief investment strategist at Geojit Investments Ltd.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">From the global market perspective, indications are that a rate cut from the Fed in the September FOMC meeting is likely after the latest jobs report indicating declines in job additions in July and downward revisions in the jobs created in May and June. Clearly, the US economy is slowing down and the Fed is likely to respond with a rate cut in September. With the inflationary impact of the tariffs kicking in, a stagflationary scenario for the US cannot be ruled out. The market will respond to incoming data and evolving outlook, he added.<\/p>\n<h2>Technical View<\/h2>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">With over 30% of Nifty 500 stocks closing below their respective lower bollinger bands, we are beginning to approach extremes from where a swing higher could be seen. However, if pullback attempts fail to clear 24,670, expect continued slippage towards 24450-24000, said Anand James, chief market strategist at Geojit Investments Ltd.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-07-08-at-16.46.30-2025-07-4288ce65f2e878c717819ce8b60fc7c8.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=0&amp;height=0\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/mohammad-haris-21410.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Mohammad Haris<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Haris is Deputy News Editor (Business) at news18.com.
