Stocks to buy on 6 April: The domestic equity markets were shut on Friday, April 3, on account of Good Friday.
On Thursday, April 2, the major indices, Nifty 50 and Sensex, recovered from previous losses as the rupee gained strength following measures taken by the central bank, although decreasing hopes for a swift resolution to the situation in Iran prolonged the downturn to six consecutive weeks.
The Nifty 50 finished 0.15% higher at 22,713.1, while the Sensex rose by 0.25% to 73,319.55 after experiencing a drop of over 2% earlier in the day.
What Gift Nifty live chart signals?
The Gift Nifty Live Chart is showing a negative start for the Indian stock market today. By 7:30 AM, the Gift Nifty was trading around 22,611.5 level, a discount of 155 points from the Nifty futures’ previous close of 22,766.60.
Decoding the impact of Gift Nifty live chart and other triggers on Dalal Street, Hariprasad K, SEBI-registered Research Analyst and Founder, Livelong Wealth said that Indian markets are expected to open on a muted note, with Gift Nifty pointing towards a flat start around the 22,690–22,700 zone. After a brief three-day pause, markets return to full trading with sentiment still anchored to global developments, particularly evolving tensions in the Middle East.
Asian cues remain mildly supportive, with Japan and South Korea trading higher, although broader participation is limited due to regional holidays. However, the underlying tone remains cautious after fresh geopolitical rhetoric over the weekend. Comments from US President Donald Trump indicating potential escalation if key supply routes are not restored have kept risk appetite in check. This continues to keep crude oil and global uncertainty as dominant drivers for markets, according to Hariprasad.
