    Stock Market Highlights: Sensex settles 765 pts lower, Nifty below 24,400; Tata Motors, M&M drop 2% each

    08 Aug 2025 | 08:00:45 PM IST
    Caution prevailed on the Street as investors assessed the possible fallout of Trump's hefty tariffs on India.
    Synopsis

    Indian stocks ended in deep red on Friday, with the benchmarks logging their sixth consecutive weekly loss, as a confluence of global and domestic headwinds, from U.S. President Donald Trump’s abrupt doubling of tariffs on Indian exports to persistent foreign investor outflows and subdued Q1 earnings, weakened investor sentiment.

    The BSE Sensex fell 765.47 points, or 0.95%, to close at 79,857.79, while the NSE Nifty shed 232.85 points, or 0.95%, to trade at 24,363.30.

    Why was the stock market down today?
    1. Trump’s 50% tariffs
    2. FII selling continues
    3. Q1 earnings offer little cover
    4. Dollar surge compounds pain
    5. Technicals signal fragile support

    OPEC oil output rises in July led by UAE and Saudi, survey finds

    OPEC's oil output rose further in July after an OPEC+ agreement to raise production, a Reuters survey found on Friday, although the hike was limited by Iraq making additional cuts and by drone attacks on Kurdish oilfields.

    The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries pumped 27.38 million barrels per day last month, up 270,000 bpd from June's revised total, the survey showed, with the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia making the largest increases.

    OPEC+, which comprises OPEC and its allies including Russia, is accelerating its plan to unwind its most recent layer of output cuts. At the same time, some members are required to make extra cuts to compensate for earlier overproduction, in theory limiting the impact of the hikes.

    SBI confident about double-digit corporate loan rise despite tariff woes

    State Bank of India is confident that corporate loan growth will quicken to double-digit percent despite U.S. tariff-related turmoil, its chairman said on Friday, after treasury profits helped the country's top bank beat earnings estimates.

    U.S. President Donald Trump on August 6 imposed an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods as punishment for Delhi's purchases of Russian oil. That raised the total duty on Indian exports to 50% - among the highest of any U.S. trading partner.

    While SBI will face limited direct business impact from U.S. tariffs, uncertainty stemming from the levies could slow businesses down, which could delay investment decisions, chairman CS Setty told reporters.

    Trump's Fed shake-up sends Wall St futures higher on rate easing hopes

    U.S. stock index futures rose on Friday after President Donald Trump's temporary pick for a Federal Reserve governor fueled expectations of a more dovish policy ahead.

    Investors were being whipsawed by mixed signals over the Fed's future, as Trump's pressure stirs worries about the central bank's independence and a potential leadership reshuffle that could skew policy looser.

    On Thursday, the U.S. president said he will nominate Council of Economic Advisers chair Stephen Miran for a short-term Fed seat while the White House hunts for a permanent governor and a new chair. Miran replaces Governor Adriana Kugler following her surprise resignation last week.

    The Nasdaq and the S&P 500 were on track for their best week in over a month, buoyed by tech names after signs they could sidestep new chip tariffs by building more in the United States.

    The bears resumed their downward move after a brief pause in the previous session. Nifty extended its losing streak to the sixth consecutive week, slipping below its 100-DMA at 24,500, which is now expected to act as an immediate hurdle. The 200-DMA, placed at 24,050, is likely to offer near-term support. The overall trend remains weak as long as the index trades below 24,800, with any pullbacks likely to face selling pressure.

    The market continues to be technically and fundamentally weak and continuous lower lows on the Nifty is technically a weak sign. From the fundamental perspective, there are no indications yet of a sharp uptick in earnings for FY26. These weak indicators, along with the relatively high valuations in India, are triggering sustained selling by the FIIs. FIIs have sold on all trading days of August, so far, taking their total cash market selling in August, till now, to Rs 15950 crore.
