A massive recovery on Dalal Street as Sensex hits a fresh high following positive global cues.
MUMBAI — Indian equity markets witnessed an explosive recovery on Tuesday, with the benchmark BSE Sensex surging over 1,600 points in mid-day trade. The rally was triggered by US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a five-day suspension of planned strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure, signaling a temporary de-escalation in Middle East tensions.

Market Dynamics:

  • The ‘Trump Effect’: Global oil prices retreated below $100 per barrel, providing immense relief to India, a major oil importer.
  • Nifty’s Surge: The NSE Nifty50 breached the crucial 23,000 mark, led by heavyweights in the Banking and IT sectors.
  • Gold & Silver: Safe-haven assets saw a sharp sell-off; gold prices dropped by nearly 3% as investors moved back to risky assets (stocks).
The “V-shaped” recovery follows Monday’s bloodbath, proving once again how sensitive Dalal Street remains to geopolitical headlines.
