Indian Stock Market Rises Amid Easing Tensions and Optimism Over US-Iran Deal
The Indian benchmark indices traded higher on Thursday, 21 May, as investors remained optimistic about the possibility of a US-Iran deal to end the Middle East conflict. The easing of crude oil prices boosted investor sentiment, with Brent crude trading near the $106 per barrel mark after plummeting 5.6% in the previous session.
As of 12:22 IST, the Nifty 50 rose 0.24% to 23,715.25, while the Sensex was trading flat at 75,395.04. Market sentiment improved after US President Donald Trump said negotiations with Iran were in their final stages, raising hopes of a possible peace agreement in the region.
Shipping data showed that two Chinese oil tankers exited the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, signaling some easing of tensions around global energy supply routes. This development added to the optimism, as investors focused on key corporate earnings announcements.
