Kolkata: On a big ay f RBI announcement on expected cut in key policy rates, the global cues are not markedly positive. US indices were giving mixed signals and GIFT Nifty was trading in the red on Friday morning. Therefore, the moot point is will the Indian market broad indices Sensex 30 and Nifty 50 open in the green on Friday, June 6, 2025 after a rise of 443 points on June 5?
Following a muted start on Thursday morning, Sensex and Nifty jumped though profit booking in the latter half significantly compromised the gains. Robust global cues, a fall in US treasury yields and a weaker dollar helped investor sentiments. Indices in the IT, metal, pharma, realty sectors went up significantly. Sensex closed at 81,442.04, up 443.79 points and Nifty was up 130.70 points to end the day at 24,750.90.
One significant point was that Gita Gopinath, deputy managing director at the International Monetary Fund thought that the continuing global trade disputes could pose a more complex challenge for central banks in emerging markets than the economic crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.
