Tariff Turbulence & Geopolitical Jitters Drag Nifty Lower

The Nifty 50 ended the week on a subdued note, declining approximately 1.5% from its previous close of 25,571 to settle around 25,510, weighed down by a confluence of global headwinds and geopolitical uncertainties. Sentiment turned sharply negative mid-week after U.S. President Trump threatened retaliatory tariffs on nations aligning with a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, triggering broad-based selling. Adding to the unease, escalating tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan, coupled with PM Narendra Modi's visit to Israel amid a volatile Middle East, kept investor risk appetite firmly in check.

On the sectoral front, Nifty Pharma (+2.23%) emerged as the top performer, followed by Nifty Metal (+1.85%). On the other side, Nifty IT bore the brunt of AI disruption fears and global tech weakness, while Nifty Realty remained under pressure amid tight liquidity and risk-off sentiment.

Looking ahead, markets will closely watch developments on the India-U.S. trade deal, further U.S. tariff announcements, the Pakistan-Afghanistan border situation, and India's Q4 GDP data all of which are likely to set the directional tone for the weeks ahead.
