Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty are expected to start positively on November 11, with GIFT Nifty trading higher. The previous trading session saw benchmarks snapping a three-day losing streak, with Nifty closing above 25,550 and Sensex gaining 319 points to 83,535.35, while Nifty rose 82 points to 25,574.30. This uplift was supported by buying in IT, metal, and pharma sectors.
Globally, Asian stocks advanced for the second consecutive day, boosted by positive sentiment stemming from potential progress in ending the prolonged US government shutdown. Wall Street also ended sharply higher, with the Nasdaq, S&P 500, and Dow Jones Industrial Average all recording significant gains. This rally was largely led by heavyweight AI-related companies like Nvidia and Palantir.
Other market indicators showed mixed signals. The US Dollar Index was relatively unchanged, while US Bond Yields traded flat. Asian currencies were mostly lower, and crude oil prices dipped due to oversupply concerns. Gold, however, held its gains, rising on prospects of further interest-rate cuts.
Fund flow data for November 10 indicated that Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) sold equities worth Rs 4114 crore, while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) were net buyers with purchases exceeding Rs 5805 crore.
Impact This news provides a positive outlook for the Indian stock market opening, influenced by strong global cues and domestic institutional buying. The resolution of the US government shutdown is a significant sentiment booster. However, FII selling warrants monitoring. Rating: 7/10
