Commodities:
Gold prices pared earlier losses on Monday. Spot gold recovered to be down 0.1% at $3,332.62 an ounce.
Oil on Monday shrugged off the impact of OPEC+ hiking output more than expected for August as well as concern about the potential impact of U.S. tariffs, with prices rising as a tight physical market lent support. Brent crude futures gained 1.87%, to close at $69.58 per barrel.
General Trends:
Asia-Pacific markets mostly rose after U.S. President Donald Trump announced steep tariffs on 14 trading partners, including Japan and South Korea.
Sector Specific Indicators:
Japan’s Nikkei 225 benchmark added 0.36% in early trade, while the broader Topix index ticked up 0.31%. In South Korea, the Kospi index increased by 0.44%, while the small-cap Kosdaq was up 0.19%.
Market in Previous Session:
The benchmark indices on Monday moved in a narrow consolidation range, signaling subdued volatility and a lack of directional momentum highlighting a phase of indecision and equilibrium between bulls and bears. The Nifty 50 index traded within a tight consolidation band, oscillating in a narrow range of merely 80 points before closing on a flat note.
By the close, the Sensex edged up 9.61 points or 0.01% to settle at 83,442.50, while the Nifty ended flat with a marginal uptick of 0.30 points at 25,461.30.

On the broader market front, underperformance was evident. The Nifty Midcap index declined by 0.27%, while the Nifty Smallcap index shed 0.44%, indicating a slight risk-off sentiment in the broader space.
Looking ahead, the market's immediate trajectory is likely to be influenced by developments in the US-India trade negotiations and the Q1 FY26 corporate earnings season—both seen as potential triggers for a decisive move.
TRADE SETUP FOR JUL 08
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index formed a doji candle with long shadows on either side, signalling consolidation amid stock-specific action.
Going ahead, a follow-through strength above last two sessions' highs (25490) will open upside towards the 25,610 levels. While a closing below last week's low, 25,330 will open downside towards 25,200 levels.
Overall, we expect Nifty to extend consolidation with positive bias in the range of 25,200-25,700.
Key positional support lies at 25,200–25,000 levels, being the confluence of the 20-day EMA and the upper boundary of the recent consolidation area (25,200-24,500). We expect the index to hold above the support area. Hence, dips should be used as a buying opportunity.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,530, followed by 25,610 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,380, followed by 25,300.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 57,200, followed by 57,450, while downside support is found at 56,700, followed by 56,450.
Nifty:
The Nifty index shows the highest call open interest (OI) at 26000, while the highest put OI is at 25000, indicating a broad trading range. In the previous session, put writers were dominant below 25300, highlighting strong support at that level.
Additionally, call unwinding was observed above 26800, while fresh call additions between 25450 and 26200 suggest a shift in the base towards higher levels.
As a result, 25300 now becomes a crucial support; a breakdown below this could drag the index towards the 25000 mark. On the upside, 26000 remains a key resistance level.
The current Put-Call Ratio (PCR) stands at 0.95, reflecting a relatively balanced market sentiment with a mildly bullish undertone.
Bank Nifty:
Bank Nifty has its highest call and put OI at 56000, followed by notable OI at 57000, marking these levels as key pivots.
In the last session, put writers were seen unwinding positions, while call writers actively added positions between 56800 and 58000, indicating a shift toward a negative bias.
The 57000 level now acts as immediate support; a break below this could push the index toward 56000. On the higher side, 57500 is a crucial resistance that needs to be surpassed for any upside momentum.
The broader expected range for Bank Nifty is between 57000 and 58000, with the Put-Call Ratio currently at 1.00, suggesting a neutral market stance with slight downward pressure.
Performance Overview:
The S&P 500 closed sharply lower Monday after President Donald Trump announced a slew of tariffs including a 25% levy on Japan goods, reigniting fears of a worldwide trade war that could the put the global economy in the crosshairs.
Sector-Specific Index:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 422 points, or 0.9%, the S&P 500 index dropped 0.8%, and the NASDAQ Composite slipped 0.9%.
Trump announced a 25% tariff on goods from South Korea and Japan starting Aug. 1, citing the need to correct long-standing U.S. trade deficits with the two countries.
Economic Indicators:
There’s little on the economic data slate Monday, and so eyes are likely to turn to the release of the minutes of the latest Federal Reserve policy meeting on Wednesday, with investors keen for more insight into how policymakers see interest rates evolving over the rest of the year.
