Trump’s Tariffs, IT Woes Drag Indian Markets Down

Indian stock markets commenced trading on a weak note Friday, July 11, 2025, succumbing to global pressures. Investor sentiment remained subdued.

The ongoing trade tensions, fuelled by US President Donald Trump’s tariff policies, significantly impacted market performance. This uncertainty created a ripple effect across various sectors.

Disappointing earnings reports from prominent Information Technology companies further dampened investor enthusiasm. Profitability concerns weighed heavily on the sector’s performance.

The combined effect of these global and domestic factors resulted in a negative opening for the key indices. This trend reflects the interconnected nature of the global economy.

This downturn underscores the vulnerability of the Indian market to external shocks. The government needs to proactively address these challenges to bolster investor confidence and ensure sustainable economic growth.
