Stock market today: Trade setup for Nifty 50 to global markets; Eight stocks to buy or sell Monday—7 July 2025
Stock Market Today: Amid concerns around trade negotiations in the US, the markets continued to consolidate during the week ended 4 July 2025. The Benchmark Nifty 50 index ended around 0.7% lower at 25,461.00. Bank Nifty also followed suit, ending 0.75% lower at 57,031.90, while Realty was another loser, though IT and Healthcare were among key gainers. In the broader markets, the mid-cap and small-cap indices gained 0.3% to 0.5%. For the Nifty, 25,500 would act as an immediate resistance zone, above which it could move up to 25,670 and the 25,800–25,900 cone. On the flip side, if the market falls below 25,300, it could slip to 25,000–24,950, said Amol Athawale, VP-Technical Research, Kotak Securities. For Bank Nifty, the 20-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) at 56,500 is a key level to watch, added Athawale. The coming week holds significant importance not only for Indian markets but for global equities as well. The most anticipated event is the outcome of the U.S. trade deadline on July 9, which could shape global trade dynamics. Investors will also closely monitor the release of the U.S. Federal Reserve's FOMC minutes on the same day, as per Ajit Mishra—SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd.
