Pre Market Analysis & Global Cues | 25 May, 2026

Global markets are looking very strong this morning after crude oil prices fell sharply over the weekend. US futures are trading strongly in green, Asian markets are also positive and Gift Nifty is showing a strong opening for Indian markets today. The biggest reason is crude oil cooling down. Brent crude fell nearly 8% and moved near the $96 zone after positive developments around possible US-Iran peace discussions and hopes of smoother movement through the Strait of Hormuz. This is a big relief for countries like India because high crude oil prices were one of the biggest reasons behind recent market pressure. Bond yields are also cooling a bit, which is helping global markets further, especially technology stocks. For Indian markets, this is the first proper positive global setup seen after many stressful sessions. Rupee is still weak near 95.7, but if crude oil continues falling, pressure on currency and foreign investor flows may also reduce slowly. Nifty closed near 23719 on Friday. Today market is likely to open strongly above recent resistance zones. Now the main thing to watch is whether Nifty can finally hold higher levels properly instead of giving up gains again after opening strong.
