The Indian equity markets remain closed today, Saturday, June 28, 2025, for the weekend, with trading set to resume on Monday, June 30, 2025. Market participants will be closely evaluating global cues and domestic developments over the weekend to form their outlook for the upcoming trading week. On Friday, June 27, 2025, India's benchmark SENSEX index closed at 84059 points, marking a gain of 0.36% from the previous session.

Global Market Cues

The global economic outlook remains a key determinant for market sentiment. Recent assessments indicate a weakening of global economic prospects, with projected slowdowns in major economies like the United States and China. Despite this, global stocks have shown resilience, with some indices roaring back to all-time highs as of mid-June 2025. Volatility persists due to policy uncertainties, ongoing trade discussions, and geopolitical tensions. Inflationary pressures could also be more persistent in certain economies, potentially leading to more restrictive monetary policies. Investors will be monitoring how these international factors evolve over the weekend, setting the tone for Asian markets on Monday.

GIFT Nifty and Domestic Cues

GIFT Nifty, formerly SGX Nifty, plays a crucial role as an early indicator for the Indian market, reflecting global investor sentiment and providing insights into the potential opening of the Nifty 50 index before Indian exchanges commence trading. It operates for extended hours, allowing global events to be factored in. Domestically, market sentiment is significantly influenced by foreign institutional investor (FII) activity, inflation data, and the progress of the monsoon. After being net sellers earlier in the year, FIIs reportedly turned net buyers in April and May 2025, which has been a supportive factor for the Indian markets. The Reserve Bank of India's stance on interest rates, especially in light of cooling inflation and a steady GDP outlook, is also a critical factor that can support investor confidence.

Key Stocks in Focus

As markets prepare for Monday's session, individual stock movements will likely be driven by corporate-specific news and broader sectoral trends. Sectors sensitive to interest rate changes, such as banking and finance, could remain in focus, especially if there are further indications regarding the RBI's monetary policy trajectory. Companies that recently announced earnings or have upcoming corporate actions may also see increased activity. The overall market structure, including FII inflows into specific sectors like autos, components, telecom, and financials, could indicate areas of interest for investors.

Key Events to Watch Today

While the market is closed today, investors will be looking ahead to key events and data releases for the upcoming week, particularly for Monday, June 30, 2025.

• Global Economic Data: Any significant economic data releases from major global economies (e.g., US, China, Eurozone) that may influence global market sentiment.
• FII/DII Flows: The trend of foreign and domestic institutional investment flows will be closely watched, as they significantly impact market liquidity and direction.
• Monsoon Progress: Updates on monsoon progress and sowing patterns are crucial for rural consumption and overall economic health in India.

• Corporate Earnings: While many companies have concluded their quarterly results, any lingering corporate announcements or updates could influence specific stocks.
