01 December, 2025
Share Market: Monday was such a day for the stock market as if the market first walked the ramp, caught everyone’s attention and then slowly took a step back. This is no puzzle, in fact, both Sensex and Nifty touched new lifetime highs, but by the end of the day the indices closed with a slight decline. The reason is the same old, investors booking profits after reaching life highs and withdrawal of foreign funds.
high-low drama
The 30-share BSE Sensex jumped 452 points intraday to reach a record level of 86,159.02. However, later due to profit booking, it fell only 64.77 points or 0.08 percent and closed at 85,641.90. NSE Nifty also made a new all-time high of 26,325.80, but by closing it slipped 27.20 points to 26,175.75. By the way, the expectations of a rise also got a break because the market is now feeling less hopeful of a rate cut from RBI this week. On the other hand, the tremendous 8.2 percent growth of GDP has given the message that the economy is strong, but the RBI is in no mood to relax any time soon.

Who shined, who slipped
Among the big Sensex companies, decline was seen in Bajaj Finance, Sun Pharma, Trent, Mahindra & Mahindra, SBI and Bajaj Finserv. On the other hand, shares like Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, Maruti, Bharat Electronics, Kotak Bank, Adani Ports and HCL Tech remained in the green zone. According to market experts, the market is in turmoil due to sluggish GST collection in November, weak rupee and weak expectations of rate cut. Also, in Asia, the markets of Shanghai and Hong Kong closed on the green mark, while South Korea’s Kospi and Japan’s Nikkei 225 closed with the red mark. Apart from this, European markets were also in decline, while American markets had closed strongly on the previous trading day.
Miracle of Crude Oil
Foreign investors sold Rs 3,795.72 crore on Friday, while domestic investors took control of the market by buying about Rs 4,148 crore. Brent crude jumped nearly 2 percent to $63.60 per barrel. By the way, the market remained cold even last Friday. Last week, in the last trading session, Sensex fell by 13.71 points to close at 85,706.67 and Nifty fell by 12.60 points to close at 26,202.95.
