Stock market prediction for Friday, 13 November, 2026: The Indian stock market is likely to open on a negative note as the GIFT Nifty signalled a muted start for both Sensex, Nifty 50 on Friday, November 13.
Meanwhile, Asian markets mostly opened higher in early trading session on Friday; however, US stock witnessed a down day amid NVIDIA saga.
“Indian equity markets look set for a cautious start, with GIFT Nifty trading marginally lower near 25,270, compared with the previous session’s Nifty close of 25,299, following a volatile trading session. The near-term outlook remains cautious, with market direction likely to be shaped by movements in crude oil prices, US Treasury yields and foreign portfolio flows. A sustained moderation in oil prices, coupled with continued FPI buying, could provide further support to the rally. However, a renewed rise in bond yields or fresh escalation of tensions in the Gulf could weigh on sentiment and prompt profit-booking at elevated levels,” said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty closed marginally higher on Thursday, extending their gains for the third consecutive session. The positive momentum was supported by continued foreign fund inflows and a decline in crude oil prices.
The 30-share BSE Sensex rose 31.61 points, or 0.04%, to close at 81,911.01. During the session, the index touched an intraday high of 82,325.61 and a low of 81,576.15. Meanwhile, the NSE Nifty 50 gained 44.30 points, or 0.18%, to settle at 25,299.35.
