Indian stock markets, including the Sensex and Nifty 50, closed lower for the fifth consecutive session on Friday, January 9. Concerns over US tariffs, upcoming Q2 results, and foreign capital outflows pressured market sentiment. The Sensex fell 605 points and the Nifty 50 declined 194 points. Broad-based selling across sectors, particularly Realty, Financials, FMCG, and Auto, contributed to the decline, with only IT and Oil & Gas sectors showing marginal gains.
