NEW DELHI: The Indian stock markets are expected to continue their upward trajectory, backed by strong macro fundamentals and policy support, a report said on Thursday, adding that with the Nifty50 rebounding from March lows, resistance is expected at 26, 300, and a breakout could see the index reach over 27, 500 by year-end.
The key triggers to watch out in second half of 2025 include clarity on U.S. tariff policies and their impact on global trade flows, resolution of geopolitical tensions in the Indo-Pacific and Middle East, and progress on key bilateral deals such as the UK–India FTA, according to recent report of Smallcase Managers, an investment products and platforms provider.
However, the report suggested that investors closely monitor U.S. inflation trends for the remaining months of 2025.
