BSE, STOCK MARKETS

Stock Market close highlights, Thursday, June 5, 2025: Following a muted start, Indian equity benchmark indices witnessed a sharp rally on the back of expectation of further interest rate cut by the Reserve Bank of India, and gains in pharma and realty stocks. In addition, fall in US Treasury Yields and a weak dollar also boosted the investor sentiment.

After hitting intraday high of 81,911, the Sensex settled at 81,442, up by 443.79 points or 0.55 per cent. The Nifty50 closed at 24,750.9 levels, up by 130.7 points or 0.53 per cent.

In the broader markets, Nifty Midcap100, and Nifty Smallcap100 indices settled with gains of 0.65 per cent and 0.96 per cent, respectively.

On the sectoral front, Nifty Realty, Pharma, and Healthcare indices emerged as top gainers up by 1.75 per cent, 1.28 per cent, and 1.07 per cent, respectively. Nifty Metal, IT, Bank, Energy, Financial Services, and Oil & Gas also settled higher. However, Nifty PSU Bank was down 0.58 per cent, followed by Media, and Auto.

Among the Sensex constituents, 19 out of 30 stocks ended higher, with gains led by Eternal, PowerGrid, ICICI Bank, Reliance Industries, UltraTech and Sun Pharma rising up to 4.5 per cent. On the other hand, IndusInd Bank, Axis Bank, Bajaj Finserv, Bajaj Finance, Kotak Mahindra Bank, and Maruti Suzuki were among the 11 Sensex laggards that ended lower by up to 1.4 per cent on Thursday.

Meanwhile, the fear index (India VIX), which gauges the volatility in the markets, settled down by 4.2 per cent at 15.08 points.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Market expert view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Markets witnessed volatility on the weekly expiry day but managed to close in the green. A lack of strong cues from global markets led to a flat start for the Nifty, followed by a swift recovery in the first half. However, profit-taking in the latter half significantly trimmed the gains, and the index finally settled at the 24,750.90 level.

Meanwhile, there was no dearth of stock-specific trading opportunities, thanks to the mixed sectoral trend. On one hand, realty and pharma posted decent gains, while auto and banking ended on a subdued note. The broader indices continued to outperform, gaining in the range of 0.6 per cent to 0.9 per cent.

With all eyes now on the outcome of the upcoming MPC meeting, the continued outperformance of rate-sensitive sectors such as banking, realty, and auto appears to be factoring in a 25 bps rate cut. However, the RBI’s commentary will be crucial, given the mixed global cues amid a favorable domestic environment.

On the index front, the Nifty has reclaimed its short-term moving average (20-DEMA), and its ability to sustain above this level will be critical for any further rebound. Otherwise, profit-taking may resume. We continue to recommend a focus on theme-specific opportunities while maintaining prudent position sizing due to the mixed market signals.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The index remained volatile within a range throughout the day, failing to establish a clear directional move as range-bound trading continued. However, a golden crossover is visible on the daily chart, indicating the potential for a strong uptrend in the short term. On the 2-hour chart, the RSI has formed a positive crossover, suggesting bullish momentum in the near to short term. Support continues to hold at 24,500; unless the Nifty breaks below this level, a serious correction is unlikely. On the contrary, a steady or even sharp recovery appears possible in the near term.
