retained text

Stock market today: The Indian stock market remained under pressure in Friday’s session on August 7, as rising crude oil prices and renewed uncertainty over the Strait of Hormuz heightened concerns about the prospects of a Middle East peace deal. The Nifty 50 fell 0.32% to settle at 24,557, while the Sensex declined 0.59% to close at 78,491.
The market is likely to open on a flat note as trends in the Gift Nifty index signalled a muted opening on Monday, 10 August. Gift Nifty was trading near the mark, up over 100 points from the previous close of Nifty futures.
“Indian equity markets are expected to open on a steady note, supported by firm regional cues, although investors are likely to remain selective as geopolitical developments and global macroeconomic expectations continue to shape risk sentiment. Asian markets are trading higher in early trade, with Japan's Nikkei 225 and South Korea's Kospi each advancing more than 1%, providing a constructive backdrop for regional equities. Reflecting the improved sentiment, GIFT Nifty futures are pointing to a positive start for domestic markets,” said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
As the market is pointing towards a flat start, some stocks are likely to remain in focus on Monday due to their own positive/negative triggers.
