The Indian stock market benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are likely to open lower on Monday, tracking weak global cues after escalating tensions between the US and Iran raised concerns over a potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz, sending crude oil prices sharply higher.
As of 7:43 AM, the GIFT Nifty was trading around 24,042, a discount of nearly 200 points over the Nifty futures’ previous close, indicating a negative start for domestic equities.
Asian markets traded mixed, while US stock futures declined as investors remained cautious amid rising inflation concerns and expectations of higher interest rates.
The US reportedly widened its military strikes on Iran, targeting several locations across southern and western parts of the country, according to Iranian state media. Meanwhile, tensions over the Strait of Hormuz continue, with Iran claiming it has shut the key shipping route, while the US maintains that the waterway remains open.
South Korean memory chip maker SK Hynix delivered a strong Nasdaq debut, with its US-listed shares surging 12.76% to close at $168.01. The company raised more than $26 billion through the sale of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), priced at $149 each.
US Treasury yields moved higher as rising crude oil prices fueled concerns over inflation and the possibility of tighter monetary policy. The 2-year Treasury yield climbed to 4.24%, its highest level since February 2025, while the 10-year yield edged up to 4.58%.
Japanese government bond yields declined, reflecting demand for safer assets. The 10-year JGB yield fell to 2.735%, the 20-year yield eased to 3.710%, and the 5-year yield slipped to 1.970%.
Oil prices rallied sharply after renewed US-Iran tensions heightened concerns over supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude gained 3.88% to $78.96
Gold prices retreated as stronger inflation expectations and the possibility of higher interest rates weighed on the precious metal. Spot gold fell 1.2% to $4,072.78 per ounce, while US gold futures declined 0.8% to $4,081.70. Spot silver also dropped 1.6% to $58.89 per ounce.
The US dollar strengthened against major currencies amid rising geopolitical tensions and inflation concerns. The US Dollar Index (DXY) stood at 101.07 after gaining 0.2%.
From a derivatives perspective, the Put-Call Ratio (PCR) stands at 1.27. On the Put (PE) side, significant open interest addition was seen at 24,200 strike, as a result significant open interest concentration was seen at 23,000 and 24,000 strike.
On the Call (CE) side, significant highest open interest addition was seen at 24,700. The highest open interest was concentrated on the 24,600 strike price.
The Nifty 50 closed at 24,207, extending its recovery and moving above its key short- and medium-term moving averages, indicating improving momentum. The index needs to decisively reclaim 24,400 to confirm a sustained uptrend towards 24,600–24,800, while immediate support is placed at 24,000, followed by the crucial 23,800 level. Technical indicators, including the RSI, MACD, and a bullish candlestick formation, suggest positive near-term sentiment, although range-bound trading may continue until a decisive breakout above 24,400.
