Top stocks to watch today: The Indian stock market is expected to open higher on Monday, November 9, with GIFT Nifty indicating a positive start for domestic benchmark indices. GIFT Nifty was trading around the 25,018 mark, up nearly 38 points or 0.15% from the previous close of Nifty futures, signalling a gap-up opening for the Sensex and Nifty.
However, both benchmark indices erased their opening gains and ended lower during Sunday's special Muhurat Trading session, marking the first time in nine years that the Sensex and Nifty closed in negative territory during the auspicious Diwali trading session. The Sensex shed nearly 29 points to settle at 80,999, while the Nifty 50 declined 44 points to close at 24,986. The losses also snapped the six-session winning streak of both indices. In the previous week, the Sensex had surged 6,569 points, while the Nifty had gained nearly 9%.
