Stock Market Prediction This Week: Stock market this week will track simmering tensions in West Asia, its impact on crude oil prices, and trading activity of foreign investors, PTI reported quoting analysts.
Besides, progress of monsoon and inflation data announcement will also be important factors to watch out for, according to PTI.
“This week will be driven by key inflation, and global macroeconomic data releases. In India, investors will closely track inflation data for May, scheduled for release on June 12, along with foreign exchange reserves data on the same day.
Global developments
“Globally, developments around the US-Iran negotiations and their implications for crude oil prices, currency movements, and overall risk sentiment will remain in focus,” Ajit Mishra, SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd, said.
US markets ended sharply lower on Friday, with the Nasdaq Composite tumbling 4.18 per cent. The S&P 500 dived 2.64 per cent and Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 1.35 per cent, as per PTI.
Developments on the US-Iran front remain highly fluid and continue to generate volatility in global markets, he said.
Macroeconomic releases from US and China
“This week will also be data-heavy, with several important macroeconomic releases from both the US and China. Among them, the US inflation data scheduled for Wednesday will be particularly critical, as it could significantly influence expectations regarding the Federal Reserve’s future policy path and set the tone for global markets,” Meena added.
“The Nasdaq fell 4 per cent, marking its worst single-day decline since April 2025, as investors aggressively reduced exposure to semiconductor and technology stocks. Given the significant weight of IT in Indian indices, this weakness could spill over into domestic markets and keep sentiment under pressure during the early part of the week,” Hariprasad K, Research Analyst and Founder, Livelong Wealth, said.
Globally, the key event to watch will be the US CPI inflation data, he said, adding that a softer-than-expected reading could revive hopes of future Federal Reserve rate cuts and improve risk appetite across global markets. (With Agency Inputs)
