In a session marked by fluctuations, the Sensex and Nifty ended their two-day winning streak in the red, influenced by concerns over US tariffs which led to a volatile trading atmosphere. Despite opening lower, the indices managed to recover somewhat, thanks to selective buying in heavyweight stocks like Reliance Industries and Tata Motors, as well as those in the oil and gas sector. The broader market, especially the smallcap index, which surged by 1.1%, outshone the benchmarks, recording its fourth straight session of gains. This performance underscores the varied investor sentiment and sectoral performance that characterized the day's trading activities.
During the trading session, the BSE Sensex slightly increased by 71.04 points, reaching 74,411.13, which represents a modest growth of 0.09 percent. Similarly, the NSE Nifty witnessed a slight uptick, adding 22.65 points to close at 22,567.35, marking a 0.10 percent increase. The market breadth was predominantly positive, with 2,383 stocks advancing, overshadowing the 1,190 decliners, and 106 remaining unchanged. This positive breadth indicates a broader market support, despite the overall decline in the indices.
