Sensex Nifty Today | Stock Market Live Updates: Indian stock markets ignore Donald Trump’s tariff concerns and continue on a gradual recovery journey. The Nifty is steady above 22,100 and the Sensex firmly in the green. Auto, power and tech stocks are rallying in trade today.
Asian markets have also clocked modest gains on the back of China’s 5% GDP target. Japan’s Nikkei and Topix edged higher, while South Korea’s Kospi and Kosdaq also advanced.
The big factors that impacted markets today –
China’s economic roadmap for 2025: China has outlined its economic targets for 2025, setting a GDP growth goal of around 5% while keeping inflation under control with a 2% consumer price index target. The government plans to maintain a budget deficit of about 4% of GDP and inject 500 billion yuan in special sovereign bonds to support major banks.
Trade war escalates with retaliatory tariffs: The US has imposed 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, along with increased duties on Chinese goods. In response, Canada announced countermeasures on $20.7 billion worth of U.S. products, covering consumer staples like orange juice, peanut butter, and motorcycles. China retaliated with additional tariffs of up to 15% on select US import.
Trump targets high tariffs, announces reciprocal action: In his first joint session of Congress since returning as US President, Donald Trump took a strong stance against countries like India for imposing steep tariffs on American goods. He announced that the US would introduce reciprocal tariffs starting April 2. Trump said, “India and others charge the US huge tariffs. On April 2, reciprocal tariffs will kick in.”
Wall Street extends losses: US markets saw another day of declines as investor sentiment took a hit following the implementation of fresh tariffs. The Dow Jones tumbled 670 points or 1.55% to 42,520.99, while the S&P 500 dropped 1.22% to 5,778.15. The Nasdaq Composite also lost ground, slipping 0.35% to 18,285.16.
