Stocks to Watch Today: Market Setup

The setup for stocks to watch today reflects weak global cues, with South Korea’s Kospi down over 8 percent as SK Hynix shares plunged 10 percent, Japan’s Nikkei 225 down 3.84 percent, and Australia’s ASX 200 down 0.23 percent, as investors trim technology exposure ahead of earnings from Amazon, Meta and Apple.

Crude oil extended its decline, with WTI futures quoted at $87.52 a barrel, down 0.95 percent, while gold and silver futures were also lower, down 0.67 percent and 1.79 percent respectively. This follows a strong session on 27 July 2026, when the Nifty 50 snapped a five-day losing streak to close up 0.96 percent at 23,995.95, and the Sensex jumped over 1 percent, as a sharp fall in crude oil prices lifted sentiment.
