Stock Market Today<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Sensex Today: <\/strong>The NSE Nifty 50 reclaimed the 25,000 mark on Tuesday after nearly a month, extending its winning streak to five sessions. The index, which last closed above the milestone on July 24, ended 70 points, or 0.3 per cent, higher at 25,050, after hitting an intra-day high of 25,089. With this, the Nifty has added 563 points over the past five trading days.<\/p>\n

The BSE Sensex also advanced, touching a high of 81,986 before settling at 81,858, up 213 points, or 0.3 per cent.<\/p>\n

IT shares powered the rally, with Infosys jumping nearly 4 per cent to Rs 1,495, contributing 165 points to the Sensex. TCS, Tech Mahindra, and HCLTech gained between 1\u20133 per cent, as analysts pointed to value-buying after months of underperformance.<\/p>\n

Among other major gainers on the Sensex were Hindustan Unilever, NTPC, Tata Steel, Bharti Airtel, Eternal, and Mahindra & Mahindra. On the downside, Bharat Electronics slipped 2 per cent, while Bajaj Finance and Tata Motors fell over 1 per cent each.<\/p>\n

Global Cues<\/strong><\/p>\n

Asian markets were under pressure, with Japan\u2019s Nikkei 225 slipping 1.52% and South Korea\u2019s Kospi down 1.72%, as investors digested Japan\u2019s trade data and awaited China\u2019s loan prime rate decision.<\/p>\n

Overnight, US stocks closed weaker, led by declines in technology shares. The S&P 500 fell 0.59%, the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.46%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended nearly flat.<\/p>\n
