Mixed signals from global market, according to Gift Nifty, chances of flat opening of domestic market

After the stormy rise in the Indian stock market on Monday, today i.e. Tuesday (26 May 2026), there may be slowness or very limited trading in the market. At present, the signals coming from the International Stock Markets are not pointing towards any major rise. Apart from this, pressure can be seen on the domestic markets due to uncertainty regarding US-Iran peace talks and the rise in crude oil prices again. Let’s see what is the trend of global markets before the opening this morning: Gift Nifty indicates a flat opening. Gift Nifty, which is considered the most important for the opening of the Indian market, is looking very quiet this morning: Gift Nifty is trading with a slight increase of only 5 points compared to yesterday’s (Monday) closing. This is a clear indication that Indian indices (Sensex and Nifty) may have a flat opening today (without any major fluctuations). How was Monday’s trading session? In the previous session i.e. on Monday, the Indian stock market had a record breaking performance: BSE Sensex closed at the level of 76,488.96 with a stormy jump of 1.42% or 1073.61 points. NSE Nifty 50: closed at the historic level of 24,031.70 with a gain of 312.40 points. Mixed trend in Asian markets: A mixed trend is being seen in the Asian stock markets this morning. While there is heavy profit-booking in some markets, some are at record levels: Asian Market Indices Today’s Status Change (%) Japan’s Nikkei 225 down -0.33% (down 225 points) Japan’s Topix down -0.36% South Korea’s Kospi Great rally (record high) +3.34% Kosdaq up +2.12% Hong Kong Kong’s Hang Seng futures fall in the red; American market (Wall Street) and crude oil condition; rise in American futures: There was a holiday in the American stock markets on Monday, but today the US stock futures look strong. A rise of 0.73% is seen in Dow Jones futures, 0.78% in S&P 500 futures and 1.14% rise in Nasdaq-100 futures. Crude Oil became expensive again: There was a huge fall of about 7% in the prices of crude oil on Monday, but today it has increased again. Brent crude oil futures have risen by 1.5% to $ 97.56 per barrel, which is a bit worrying for the sentiment of the Indian market. Gold and Silver: An uptrend has been recorded in the prices of gold and silver in the international market today. Disclaimer: This information is based only on market data and global signals.
