Monday’s slide to 23,070.15 on US-Iran strike fears marked the weekly low, Tuesday’s bank-led bounce steadied the tape, the middle of the week drifted as tensions simmered, and Friday delivered a 470.15 point Nifty surge once the US cancelled planned strikes and crude collapsed. That arc, a fearful start repaired by a powerful finish, is the spine of this stock market weekly summary.

Weekly Numbers That Matter in the Stock Market Weekly Summary

  • Nifty 50: Closed 23,631.75, up 265.05 points or 1.13 percent for the week, weekly range 23,070.15 to 23,645.35

  • Bank Nifty: Closed 56,805.50, up 2,309.25 points or 4.24 percent, the week’s runaway leader
  • Volatility: India VIX ended at 14.72 after cooling 5.7 percent on Friday, the calmest close in over a week
  • Derivatives: Nifty June futures settled at 23,714.80 in long buildup, with heavy put writing at the 23,500 strike for the coming weekly expiry

Those are the hard numbers anchoring the stock market weekly summary.

Winners and Laggards of the Week

Banking and rate-sensitives owned the week while IT sat out the rally. Friday’s breakout session showed the leadership in full, and it frames the stock market weekly summary at the sector level.

  • Banking led everything: Bank Nifty’s 4.24 percent week dwarfed the headline indices, with HDFC Bank closing the week at a fresh high and PSU banks rallying alongside
  • Rate-sensitives followed: Realty, financial services and autos rode the same rate-cut trade that powered the banks
  • Friday’s stars: Bajaj Finance surged 5.49 percent on Friday, Larsen and Toubro crossed 4,000 for the first time with a 4.85 percent jump, and Eternal gained 3.66 percent
  • The laggard: IT was the only red sectoral index on Friday’s 2 percent rally day, with Infosys flat and Tech Mahindra down 2.45 percent as the Fed meeting loomed

Global and Macro Recap Behind the Stock Market Weekly Summary

  • US-Iran arc: The week opened on strike fears and closed on de-escalation, with reports the US cancelled planned military action and would soon sign a deal, though Iran clarified nothing final is signed
  • Crude oil: Brent fell over 4 percent for the week toward 89 dollars as the geopolitical risk premium unwound, with MCX crude down nearly 4 percent on Friday alone
  • Wall Street: The S&P 500 surged 1.75 percent to 7,394 and the Dow gained 1.85 percent on Friday, powering the global risk-on close
  • US inflation: The US May CPI printed a hot 4.2 percent headline but a cool 0.2 percent core month reading, keeping the 16-17 June Fed meeting live
  • Domestic flows: FII sold Rs 2,249.03 Cr and DII bought Rs 4,365.11 Cr in the cash market on 11 June, with Friday’s provisional figures awaited, the domestic bid cushioned every dip
