Sensex and Nifty 50 remain under pressure on August 19, 2026, extending their losing streak amid rising crude oil prices, Strait of Hormuz tensions, higher US Treasury yields, rupee weakness and continued FPI concerns.

Indian stock markets traded lower on August 18, 2026, as rising crude oil prices, US-Iran tensions, higher global bond yields and rupee weakness triggered a risk-off mood. Nifty 50 fell to 24,177.20 by 11:30 AM, while investors tracked NSE IPO developments, Lalithaa Jewellery Mart IPO subscription, ICICI Bank and key corporate updates.

Indian benchmark indices ended sharply higher on August 3, with the Sensex gaining 544 points and the Nifty closing at 24,774. Strong buying in IT stocks, easing crude oil prices, improving FII sentiment, and the rollout of the new Closing Auction Session (CAS) drove the rally, while investors remained focused on the upcoming RBI policy meeting.

Indian stock markets ended sharply higher on July 29, 2026, with the Sensex gaining 888.68 points and the Nifty closing at 24,250.20. The rally was driven by sustained buying in IT stocks, positive FII inflows, lower market volatility, and expectations of an unchanged US Federal Reserve interest rate. Infosys led the IT surge, while broad-based gains across FMCG, Metals, Pharma, and Financials boosted overall market sentiment.
