“Rising geopolitical tensions and fresh tariff-related concerns have triggered profit-booking at higher levels, keeping risk appetite in check. As a result, the market is expected to remain largely range-bound, with stock-specific and sector-led moves dominating trade rather than a broad-based directional trend,” Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money, an online trading and wealth tech firm, said.Asian markets were mixed, with South Korea’s Kospi and China’s SSE Composite trading higher, while Japan’s Nikkei 225 and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng were lower. US equities closed higher on Tuesday. In commodities, Brent crude slipped 0.87 per cent to $60.17 a barrel.Foreign institutional investors sold equities worth Rs 107.63 crore on Tuesday, as per exchange data. Domestic institutional investors, however, remained net buyers, purchasing shares valued at Rs 1,749.35 crore.(Disclaimer: Recommendations and views on the stock market, other asset classes or personal finance management tips given by experts are their own.
