India's BSE Sensex achieved a record high, closing approximately 0.5% up at 85,633 on Thursday. This upward trajectory builds on the prior day's gains, driven by a resurgence of foreign investments, robust corporate earnings, and positive developments in US trade negotiations. Additionally, investors responded favorably to Nvidia's optimistic performance results, which helped mitigate worries of a bubble in AI-related sectors, as focus shifted to the forthcoming US labor data, which had been delayed. The financial sector spearheaded the market rally with Bajaj Finance and Bajaj Finserv climbing 2.4% and 2.2%, respectively. Meanwhile, Reliance Industries saw a 2% increase in its stock price, fueled by positive evaluations from several brokerage firms regarding its oil-to-chemicals and emerging energy ventures. Conversely, Asian Paints, HCLTech, and Titan experienced declines, falling by 1.3%, 1.2%, and 0.8% respectively.
