The BSE Sensex opened with a gain of 104 points at 74,707 and quickly surged to a high of 74,834. As of 9:20 AM, the Sensex was up by 115 points, standing at 72,722.

Global Cues
Asian equities opened within a narrow range as investor sentiment remained cautious following mixed signals from global markets. Earnings reports from Nvidia Corp. failed to propel the stock higher in after-market trading, dampening overall market sentiment. Additionally, new tariff announcements by President Donald Trump introduced fresh uncertainty, further weighing on investor confidence. As of 9:08 a.m. Tokyo time, S&P 500 futures were little changed, while regional indices showed varied movements. Hang Seng futures dropped by 0.5%, Japan’s Topix saw a modest gain of 0.1%, and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 rose by 0.6%. Meanwhile, Euro Stoxx 50 futures advanced 1.5%, reflecting a more positive outlook for European markets.
