On Tuesday, the Indian stock market indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are anticipated to open on a flat note amid largely positive global cues.

Previous Trading Session 

On Monday, the Sensex rose by 591.69 points (0.73%) to close at 81,973.05, while the Nifty 50 gained 163.70 points (0.66%) to close at 25,127.95.

FII and DIIs 

On October 14, 2024, DIIs bought securities worth ₹11,597.52 crore, while FIIs sold securities worth ₹13,095.75 crore.

Put Call Ratio (PCR)

Nifty’s PCR has shifted to 0.70 in the previous session. A PCR ratio below 0.7 or heading toward 0.5 denotes a bearish trend, whereas a ratio above 0.7 or approaching 1 typically suggests a positive sentiment.

 

The increasing PCR, which is higher than 0.7 or surpasses 1, means traders are selling more Put options than Call options, which generally indicates the firming up of a bullish sentiment in the market. If the ratio falls below 0.7 or moves towards 0.5, then it indicates selling Call Options is higher than selling Put options, reflecting a bearish mood in the market.

Crude Price

Crude oil prices continued to drop after reports suggested Israel might refrain from targeting Iran’s oil infrastructure. Brent crude declined by 2.94% to $75.18 per barrel, while U.S. WTI crude futures dropped by 3.07% to $71.56.

Asian Markets

On Tuesday, most Asian markets traded higher, following an overnight rally on Wall Street. Japan’s Nikkei 225 increased 1%, with the Topix up 0.8%. However, South Korea’s Kospi and Kosdaq dropped slightly, by 0.11%. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index futures pointed to a positive start.

US Markets

On Monday, U.S. stock markets closed higher, with both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones reaching new record levels. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose by 201.36 points (0.47%) to 43,065.22, while the S&P 500 increased 44.82 points (0.77%) to 5,859.85. The Nasdaq Composite also advanced by 159.75 points (0.87%) to finish at 18,502.69.
