Markets woke up on a positive note this morning (June 26, 2025). After days of nervous trading, the Sensex added over 100 points early, while Nifty comfortably crossed 25,300 (as of 9:40 am). The trigger? News of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.
With global tensions easing (for now), investors are showing fresh appetite for equities. IT, auto and mid-cap stocks led the charge, setting the tone for what could be a steady session.
What’s happening
Both indices were in the green post-opening.
- Sensex: 83,124, up 0.37 per cent
- Nifty 50: 25,347, up 0.43 per cent
That’s on top of Wednesday’s solid gains when the Sensex rose 700 points and the Nifty added 200 points. Mid and small caps also found takers, with both indices up 0.3-0.4 per cent.
The easing geopolitical tensions calmed nerves across Asia, and Dalal Street followed suit.
What’s driving this
It’s all about relief. The Middle East ceasefire turned risk-off into risk-on. Fears of oil price shocks and supply disruptions have receded for now. Meanwhile, strong showings from IT and auto stocks reflect confidence in export growth and domestic demand.
What it means for investors
For investors, this is a reminder of how quickly sentiment can shift. Two days ago, it felt like caution ruled. Now, the mood is tentatively upbeat. If you’re sitting on the fence, remember: timing the market is tricky. The better play is to stay disciplined, diversify, and avoid chasing short-term rallies.
