Nifty & Sensex — 03 Aug 2026
Pre-Market
Section titled “Pre-Market”Markets Data
Section titled “Markets Data”Markets are positioned for a positive open with strong overnight gains in US indices and a weaker dollar supporting risk assets. The rupee's strength and lower oil prices add to favorable conditions, while domestic institutional buying outweighs foreign outflows. Volatility remains subdued, and the previous session's close in the upper range suggests continued bullish momentum. The overall bias leans long with normal conviction.
