Sensex & Nifty Rise On Strong Global Cues & Investor Optimism

Indian stock markets opened with strong momentum on Wednesday, bolstered by positive global trends and renewed investor confidence.

The Sensex climbed 260 points, or 0.31 per cent, to reach 84,847, while the Nifty rose 88 points, or 0.34 per cent, to trade at 25,973 during the early hours of the session.

Market analysts noted that the Nifty continues to trade within a defined range.

Resistance is expected around 26,000–26,050, while near-term support has formed between 25,750 and 25,800 — a zone that may attract buyers if the index dips to those levels.

Experts added that fresh long positions could be considered once the Nifty decisively crosses 26,100–26,130, though global cues and technical indicators remain crucial to watch.

Global equities have been rallying for three consecutive days amid rising optimism that the US Federal Reserve may implement a rate cut in December 2025.

This positive sentiment has spilt over into Indian markets, providing an additional boost to domestic investor morale.

The strengthened global outlook has contributed significantly to Wednesday’s upbeat opening.

Major Stocks Push Indices Higher

Several heavyweight stocks contributed to the rise in the Sensex. Top gainers included Tata Motors PV, Trent, Adani Ports, Tata Steel, Larsen & Toubro, Ultratech Cement, Infosys, Maruti Suzuki, ICICI Bank, and Tech Mahindra. These companies showed strong early performance, helping lift overall market sentiment.

However, a few key stocks saw declines. Bharti Airtel, Hindustan Unilever, and TCS were the only major laggards in early trade, reflecting selective profit-taking or cautious investor positioning.

Broader market indices also moved higher, reflecting strong buying interest beyond blue-chip stocks.

The Nifty MidCap index gained 0.53 per cent, while the Nifty SmallCap index rose 0.79 per cent, indicating that investor confidence extended across the market spectrum.

Among sectors, metals led the rally with the Nifty Metal index jumping 1.7 per cent, driven by robust global commodity trends and improved demand outlook.

PSU banks, information technology, financial services, and private banking stocks also posted gains of up to 0.8 per cent, further supporting the market’s upward trajectory.

Analysts advised retail investors to avoid aggressive trading in the current environment.

Instead, they recommended gradually accumulating fairly valued, high-quality growth stocks that may become available at attractive prices due to ongoing market volatility.

Such a strategy, they suggested, would be more prudent for long-term wealth creation.

Indian markets appear poised for continued optimism, supported by strong global sentiment and healthy domestic participation across sectors and indices.
