On Friday, June 27, 2025, Dalal Street kicked off the trading session on a positive note, with Nifty 50 hovering around 25,600 (up ~47 pts or 0.18%) and the BSE Sensex rallying over 100 pts (+0.15%) to approximately 83,887 by 9:17 AM IST.
Broad market sentiment remained buoyant due to favorable global cues—particularly easing Middle East tensions, expectations of early U.S. rate cuts, and optimism over potential extensions to U.S. tariffs impacting India.
Positive spillovers from Asian markets and Federal Reserve rate cut speculation also added support.
Sectorally, IT and metal stocks outperformed, with media, PSU bank, and oil & gas segments also gaining upside traction—driven in part by dollar softness benefiting dollar-denominated metal stocks. Broader indices, including small-caps and mid-caps, were modestly higher, continuing their earlier momentum.
Market analysts noted that benchmark valuations are nearing cycle highs—less than 3% below all-time peaks—highlighting some profit-booking risk, though experts remain cautiously optimistic if global ease and tariff clarity persist.
