Pre-Market Analysis – Indian Stock Market (13th May, 2025)

Good morning, everyone. Here’s a quick and simple look at the market setup for today: Global Cues: US Markets ended on a strong note yesterday, thanks to a positive trade agreement between the US and China. This boosted global investor confidence: • Dow Jones: +2.81% • S&P 500: +3.26% • Nasdaq: +4.35% European Markets also closed in green for the third day in a row. The rally is likely supported by trade agreement between US-Europe, easing recession fears, and strong earnings reports. • FTSE: +0.58% • CAC: +1.35% • DAX: +0.29% Asian Markets Today: Most major Asian markets are trading positive: • Nikkei 225: +1.70% • Taiwan Weighted: +1.41% • KOSPI: +0.26% • Shanghai Composite: +0.24% However, Hang Seng is down 1.30%, likely due to profit booking.

GIFT Nifty @ 8:20 AM • Trading at -160 points (-0.63%) • Indicates a negative opening for Indian markets despite positive global cues. Summary • Global mood is positive, led by US-China deal. • Indian ADRs are strong, but GIFT Nifty hints at a weak start. • Watch for volatility—markets may recover later in the day if global momentum continues.
