Stock market today: Trade setup for Nifty 50, Trump tariffs, Q1 results today; 7 stocks to buy or sell on Thursday
Stock market today: The benchmark Nifty-50 index ended another weaker trading session on Wednesday with a 0.3% decline at 24,574.20. The Bank Nifty at 55,411.15 ended marginally higher after the RBI maintained the policy rate, which remained unchanged, and the stance neutral, while Realty, Pharma, and IT emerged as the top losers. The broader indices also ended nearly one percent lower. On the downside, 24,500 for the Nifty-50 index continues to be a promising support zone, while 24,700 would act as a crucial resistance area for the bulls. Above 24,700, the pullback is likely to continue up to 24,850–24,900, said Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research, Kotak Securities. The Bank Nifty index is nearing a crucial support zone between 55,200 and 54,900, as per Bajaj Broking. As expected, the RBI maintained a neutral stance and kept policy rates unchanged, acknowledging global headwinds while emphasizing India's domestic resilience, fiscal prudence, and strong rural demand. The inflation outlook has turned more favorable, supported by a good monsoon and healthy kharif sowing. In anticipation of improvement in consumption, private investment, and continued government-led capex, the domestic economy appears well-positioned for a better second half, reinforcing investor confidence despite external uncertainties, said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited. Donald Trump announced an additional 25% tariff on India as a "penalty" for its continued import of Russian crude oil, while pledging similar measures against other nations that buy Russian energy and thereby fund Moscow's cash-strapped war effort in Ukraine. The new tariff applies to goods entered into the U.S. 21 days from Aug 6, 2025 (except shipments already in transit before the deadline, which must arrive before Sept 17, 2025. Trump's latest tariff offensive brings total duties on Indian imports into the United States to 50% —20% higher than the tariff on China and 21 percentage points above that imposed on Pakistan. 'We expect the markets to fall by 1-2% in a knee-jerk reaction, but most would expect a resolution of the same. Impact on GDP will be around 30-40 bps if these tariffs are sustained for a year,' said Dhiraj Relli, MD & CEO, HDFC Securities.

Indian stock market: 8 key things that changed for market overnight - Gift Nifty, US tariffs on India to Apple shares
Indian stock market: The domestic equity benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are expected to open lower on Thursday, after the US President Donald Trump imposed an additional 25% tariff on imports from India, bringing the combined tariffs to 50%. Asian markets traded mixed, while the US stock market ended higher, lifted by a rally in Nasdaq. On Wednesday, the Indian stock market ended lower after the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) decided to keep the repo rate unchanged, and maintain the policy stance to 'Neutral'. The Sensex fell 166.26 points, or 0.21%, to close at 80,543.99, while the Nifty 50 settled 75.35 points, or 0.31%, lower at 24,574.20. 'We expect the market to continue its consolidation as investor sentiment remains cautious amid India-US trade tensions and the ongoing Q1 earnings announcements,' said Siddhartha Khemka - Head Of Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd. Here are key global market cues for Sensex today: Asian markets traded mixed on Thursday after Trump's vow to impose a 100% tariff on imports of semiconductors and chips. Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 0.66%, while the Topix index gained 0.19%. South Korea's Kospi rallied 0.53% while the Kosdaq was flat. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index futures indicated a weaker opening. Gift Nifty was trading around 24,594 level, a discount of nearly 40 points from the Nifty futures' previous close, indicating a negative start for the Indian stock market indices. US stock market ended higher on Wednesday, led by a more than 1% gain in the Nasdaq. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 81.38 points, or 0.18%, to 44,193.12, while the S&P 500 rallied 45.87 points, or 0.73%, to 6,345.06.

Walt Disney shares eased 2.7%. US President Donald Trump slapped an additional 25% tariff on imports from India, citing the country's alleged direct and indirect import of oil from the Russian Federation, bringing the combined tariffs imposed by the United States on its ally to 50%. Apple share price jumped 5% after US President Donald Trump announced that the company will invest an additional $100 billion in the United States, a move which will expand its domestic investment commitment and could help it sidestep potential tariffs on iPhones. The new pledge brings Apple's total investment commitment in the US to $600 billion. Earlier this year, the company had announced it would invest $500 billion and hire 20,000 workers across the country over the next four years, Reuters reported. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said that for him, the cooling US labor market and a slowing economy adds up to a case for interest rate cuts in coming months. 'The economy is slowing, and that means in the near term it may become appropriate to start adjusting,' Kashkari said on CNBC's Squawk Box, adding that two quarter-percentage-point rate cuts by the end of the year 'seems reasonable to me.' The dollar remained lower against major peers. The dollar index, which measures the greenback against a basket of major peers, edged up 0.1% to 98.259, after a 0.6% slide in the previous session, Reuters reported. The US currency was little changed at 147.36 yen. The euro stood at $1.1654, down almost 0.1%. Gold prices rose, helped by a weaker dollar on growing expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut next month. Spot gold price rose 0.1% to $3,372.97 per ounce, while US gold futures gained 0.3% to $3,442.20.
