Sensex jumps 200 pts, Nifty tops 26,000 amid trade optimism, strong earnings

Indian stocks remained largely flat on Tuesday, with the Sensex and Nifty showing minimal movement. This stability was driven by positive sentiment surrounding eased U.S.-China trade tensions and strong domestic corporate earnings, which counteracted some profit-taking after recent market advances. The benchmarks are currently trading approximately 1% below their September 2024 all-time highs.
