Sensex Today: Key benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty are likely to be influenced on the last trading day by a combination of factors, including India-US trade deal discussions, Trump’s 35 per cent tariff announcement on Canada, TCS Q1 results, institutional investment trends, primary market activity, and mixed global cues.
That said, around 7:05 AM, GIFT Nifty futures were trading 137 points lower at 25,285, indicating a gap-down start for the bourses.
Global cues
Asia-Pacific markets traded mixed on Friday following US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 35 per cent tariff on Canadian goods starting August 1. He also indicated plans to implement blanket tariffs of 15–20 per cent on most trading partners, downplaying concerns about potential impacts on inflation or the stock market.
