Global markets turned cautious on Thursday as technology stocks once again came under heavy selling pressure. The S&P 500 fell 1.1%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 397 points (0.8%) and the Nasdaq Composite slid 1.9%.
The decline was led by AI-focused names such as NVIDIA Corporation, which fell over 4%, as investors grew wary of stretched valuations after a brief recovery a day earlier.
On the macroeconomic front, fresh data showed that U.S. job cuts surged to the highest monthly level in 22 years, raising renewed concerns about the labor market and economic growth. Adding to the unease, the U.S. Supreme Court began hearings on whether former President Trump’s broad tariff measures violated domestic law—a case that could redefine presidential trade powers and reshape global trade dynamics, especially U.S.-China relations.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield eased by more than 6 basis points to 4.09% as risk aversion drove demand for safe-haven assets.
Spot gold gained 0.2% to trade at $3,989.91 per ounce, while the U.S. dollar weakened for the second straight session amid growing expectations of another rate cut later this year. The Dollar Index was down 0.3% at around 99.60.
Meanwhile, Brent crude futures edged 0.22% lower, closing at $63.38 per barrel.
Following the sharp declines on Wall Street, Asia-Pacific markets opened in the red on Friday. Japan’s Nikkei 225 fell 1.38% at the open, while the Topix slipped 0.5%. South Korea’s Kospi lost 0.46%, and the Kosdaq declined 0.92%.
The Gift Nifty also indicated a negative start for Indian equities, with the Nifty spot expected to trade in the 25,330–25,680 range for the day.
Indian equity markets ended lower on November 6, as weak global cues and a risk-off mood weighed on sentiment. The Sensex slipped 148 points (0.18%) to close at 83,311, while the Nifty fell 88 points (0.34%) to 25,510.
Sectorally, metal, power, realty, and media indices saw notable declines of 1.5%–2.5%, whereas auto and IT stocks managed to stay in the green with marginal gains.
In the broader market, the Midcap index dropped 0.95% and the Small-cap index fell 1.39%, indicating continued profit booking and cautious investor positioning.
The Nifty has now posted five consecutive sessions of lower highs and lower lows, signaling extended profit booking. Over the last ten trading days, the index has corrected by nearly 600 points, unwinding its overbought levels after a strong 1,500-point rally in October.
Technically, the Nifty is approaching a key demand zone between 25,500 and 25,300, expected to serve as a strong support base. A sustained move forming higher highs and higher lows could indicate a pause in the correction and open up a rebound toward the 25,850 resistance zone.
Intraday Levels:
Resistance: 25,600 & 25,680
Support: 25,400 & 25,330
