Sensex Today | Stock Market Live Updates: GIFT Nifty points to a gap-down start after Trump tariff announcements

Stock Market Live Updates: Indian equities brace for a roller coaster session on Thursday, April 3, as US President Donald Trump, in the early hours of the day, Indian time, announced sweeping reciprocal tariffs for as many as 60 countries, including India. In response, the US equity futures, led by the Dow Jones, sank as much as 1,100 points, while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq futures fell 3.5% and 4.5% respectively. Both the Sensex and Nifty 50, along with the broader markets, have been fairly resilient last week amidst the uncertainties and clawed back some of Tuesday’s sell-off on Wednesday. What makes this session even more important is that today is the weekly options expiry of the Nifty 50 contracts.

What also remains to be seen is whether the 26% reciprocal tariff imposed on India has already been priced in with the sell-off seen in February? or is there more pain to come?
