Nifty Metal 13,029.95 (-1.45%) June 8 2026. SAIL -3.48%, NATIONALUM -3.01%, NMDC -2.41%, JSL -2.32%, Hindalco -2.03%. Dollar strength, China demand fears hit metals.<\/em><\/p>\n

Nifty Metal fell 1.45% to 13,029.95 on June 8, 2026, making it the worst-performing sectoral index of the session. The breadth of selling was notable, with every major Nifty Metal constituent trading in the red. SAIL led losses with a sharp 3.48% decline to Rs 183.93, followed by National Aluminium at -3.01% to Rs 383.80, NMDC at -2.41% to Rs 90.66, JSL at -2.32% to Rs 674.60, Hind Copper at -2.19% to Rs 514.80, and Hindalco at -2.03% to Rs 1,070.40.<\/p>\n

The Nifty Metal selloff reflects a confluence of global and domestic headwinds: a stronger US dollar (boosted by Federal Reserve rate hike bets from the strong US jobs data), renewed fears about China’s economic momentum, elevated energy costs for metal smelting linked to Brent oil above $97, and FII-driven risk-off selling across cyclical sectors.<\/p>\n
