The stock market opened this morning with renewed enthusiasm and confidence. After hitting record highs on Thursday, the Sensex and Nifty opened positively in Friday’s session (November 28, 2025), further boosting investor sentiment. The market gained the most strength from buying in major stocks like Reliance Industries and expectations of global interest rate cuts. This is why the domestic market appeared green in the morning session.
Sensex and Nifty Morning Movement
The BSE Sensex opened this morning with a gain of 103.96 points at 85,824.34, while the NSE Nifty rose 36.20 points to 26,251.75. Such strength in the indexes, even a day after hitting record highs, demonstrates that market confidence remains intact. Investors are also eyeing today’s GDP data announcement, which could lead to market volatility.
Who were the top gainers and losers
On the Sensex, heavyweight stocks like Mahindra & Mahindra, Reliance Industries, Hindustan Unilever, Titan, Tech Mahindra, and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles made a strong start and held the market steady. On the other hand, stocks like Axis Bank, Adani Ports, Asian Paints, and Power Grid saw some weakness, creating some pressure in the opening session.
Global Markets Gave Mixed Signals
Asian markets witnessed mixed trends this morning. Japan’s Nikkei 225, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng, and South Korea’s Kospi were in the red. China’s Shanghai Composite was in the green. US markets were closed for Thanksgiving, so the Indian market had to navigate its own course amid a lack of foreign cues.
Foreign and Domestic Investor Behaviour
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold heavily on Thursday, amounting to ₹1,255 crore. However, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) maintained market stability by purchasing shares worth ₹3,940 crore, preventing investor morale from falling. This strong domestic support played a key role in preventing the market decline. Impact of Crude Oil and Economic Expectations
Crude oil rose 0.36% today to trade at $63.57 per barrel.
Low international oil prices are always considered positive for the Indian economy, and this impact was also visible in the market. The news that positive talks are underway regarding a US-India trade deal was also a major reason for the market rally.
Why the positive start despite the record high
- Sensex touched an all-time high of 86,055
- Nifty reached a record high of 26,310
The market’s strong opening the following morning indicates that investor confidence remains strong and the rally is likely to continue. According to experts, expectations of upcoming Fed and RBI rate cuts are currently the biggest positive force in the market.
