On Thursday, 29 May 2025, Indian equity markets recovered after falling for two consecutive sessions. The BSE Sensex rose by 320.70 points (+0.39%) to close at 81,633.02, while the Nifty 50 gained by 81.15 points (+0.33%) to settle at 24,833.60.

Today’s uptrend was broad-based but more focused on sectors that were affected by Trump tariffs, with the Nifty Metal index leading the sectoral increase, increasing by 1.21 percent. Welspun Corp increased by 10 percent following its robust Q4 results. Other metal stocks, such as Tata Steel, NMDC, and Hindustan Zinc, also saw an uptick. The Nifty IT index also saw an uptick of 0.76 percent. In contrast, the Nifty PSU Bank fell by 0.24 percent, and the Defensive FMCG index fell by 0.13 percent

Global markets were in tune with the Indian markets on May 29, 2025. Japan’s Nikkei 225 closed up 1.88 percent, as Trump tariff fears eased after the US court halted the tariffs. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index increased by 1.35 percent, and China’s Shanghai Composite also closed up 0.70 percent, both following the tariff’s suspension by the US Court.

The Indian market initially fell after opening but later closed at the day’s high following the global trend, which was set by the tariff suspension by the courts.

Nifty 50 has been trying to break the 25,000 level since May 12th. However, because of global uncertainty, the index is yet to give a decisive breakout above the 25,000 level.
