SGX Nifty November 2025 futures were observed to be trading higher by 71.00 points (or 0.27%) in early trade, suggesting a positive opening for the Nifty 50 today.
Institutional Flows:
On 19 November 2025, provisional data indicated that foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) acquired shares valued at Rs 1,580.72 crore, whereas domestic institutional investors (DIIs) were net buyers amounting to Rs 1,360.27 crore in the Indian equity market.
Global Markets:
On Thursday, Asia-Pacific markets experienced an uptick, driven by a surge in chip shares following Nvidia’s stronger-than-anticipated earnings and optimistic outlook, which seemed to bolster confidence in the global AI sector and uplift the overall market. The chip giant’s shares surged over 4% in after-hours trading following a fiscal third-quarter earnings report that exceeded both earnings and revenue forecasts. The AI chip manufacturer provided a fourth-quarter sales forecast that exceeded expectations, with CEO Jensen Huang stating that demand for its current-generation Blackwell chips is “off the charts.”
U.S. equity futures saw a slight increase in early Asian trading hours, buoyed by Nvidia’s positive guidance. This development appears to have improved investor sentiment regarding the AI sector, especially after recent trading sessions that highlighted concerns over high valuations, debt financing, and the risk of chip depreciation.
On Wall Street, stocks finished predominantly in the green on Wednesday as the market regained some momentum following a tech-driven sell-off. The S&P 500 increased by 0.38%, closing at 6,642.16, breaking a four-day losing streak, while the Nasdaq Composite rose by 0.59%, finishing at 22,564.23. The Dow Jones Industrial Average increased by 47 points, representing a 0.1% rise, closing at 46,138.77.
Domestic Market:
Equity benchmarks concluded Wednesday with notable gains, driven by a surge in IT stocks, which was bolstered by encouraging signals regarding the US-India trade deal, enhancing overall market sentiment. Following a slow beginning influenced by lackluster global indicators, the indices gained traction throughout the session, propelling the Nifty beyond the 26,000 threshold. Market participants are closely monitoring the upcoming FOMC minutes for insights regarding the trajectory of US interest rates.
The Sensex increased by 513.45 points, reflecting a gain of 0.61%, concluding at 85,186.47. Meanwhile, the Nifty saw an uptick of 142.60 points, or 0.55%, finishing at 26,052.65. HCL Technologies (up 4.32%), Infosys (up 3.74%), and ICICI Bank (up 0.82%) played significant roles in driving the gains.
