Indian markets likely open flat as global cues and US data await
On 18 November 2025, Indian equity markets are expected to open broadly unchanged after multiple sessions of gains. With the Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex having advanced over the past week, domestic optimism is somewhat tempered by weak global leads and upcoming US labour‑market and inflation data. Brokerages noted that while domestic earnings remain supportive, foreign institutional investor flows and currency volatility will determine near‑term direction. 
Traders are focusing on whether foreign outflows intensify or the rupee weakens further before making new commitments.
