  • Sensex jumps 500 points as buyers return after US-Iran hit
    July 9, 2026, 1:06 AM EDT. Indian shares snapped back on Thursday. The Sensex shot up 516 points to 77,019 and the Nifty topped 24,000, shrugging off worries from the latest US-Iran flare-up. Stocks had tumbled Wednesday after US military action in Iran and comments from President Trump raised fears of more conflict. Traders jumped in on the drop, seeing value. Crude held steady near $79 a barrel, which traders say stays manageable for Indian importers unless the Strait of Hormuz gets blocked. Foreign funds added almost Rs 4,000 crore to equities over four days, mainly in large cap, financial and auto shares. Broader markets also caught a bid-both smallcap and midcap stocks finished higher as buying spread out, even with big geopolitical risks still in play.
