The Indian stock market is expected to open cautiously on Friday due to a significant selloff in the previous session, where the Sensex fell by 852.49 points (1.09%) to close at 77,664.00, and the Nifty 50 dropped 205.05 points (0.84%) to 24,173.05. Mixed signals from global markets, particularly the US stock market, which ended lower amid escalating tensions in the US-Iran conflict, are influencing investor sentiment. Additionally, crude oil prices have risen sharply, with Brent crude futures reaching $106.3 per barrel, raising concerns about inflation and economic stability. In corporate news, Infosys reported a 27.8% increase in Q4 net profit, amounting to ₹8,501 crore (approximately $1.03 billion USD), while its revenue increased by 2% to ₹46,402 crore (approximately $5.6 billion USD). Investors are advised to focus on stock selection as certain sectors continue to show resilience despite the overall market volatility.
