    Global Market Overview

    US stock futures and European markets experienced sharp declines following President Trump’s tariff threat against several European countries over Greenland. The tariffs, starting at 10% in February and rising to 25% by July, have heightened geopolitical tensions. This led to caution among investors, pushing them toward safe-haven assets like gold and silver. Meanwhile, oil prices rose slightly as markets braced for potential risks.

    The Indian market reflected global weakness, with Nifty closing lower on January 19th. The cautious outlook in derivatives, with call writing limiting upside, suggests a sell-on-rallies setup. Bank Nifty remains in a narrow range, suggesting a mild negative bias unless there’s stronger support or short covering.
