Indian Stock Market Ends Week Lower Amid Geopolitical Tensions and Range-Bound Outlook
The Indian stock market ended the week lower amid elevated crude oil prices, geopolitical tensions, and mixed global signals, with the Sensex closing at 78,009.25 and the Nifty 50 at 24,366. Experts Sumeet Bagadia and Ganesh Dongre noted a sideways bias for the Nifty, expecting it to remain range-bound between key support and resistance levels until a decisive breakout occurs. Sectoral performance was mixed, with gains in Telecom and Capital Goods despite overall cautious investor sentiment.
