Indian equity benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are expected to begin Wednesday's session on a cautious note, weighed down by mixed cues from global markets.
At 07:45 AM, Gift Nifty was trading around the 25,663.50 level in early trade, down 18 points, indicating a muted start for Indian indices.
Asian markets were mostly in the red this morning, mirroring the uncertain tone from Wall Street overnight. Japan’s Nikkei 225 dropped 1.32%, while the Topix shed 0.64%. South Korea’s Kospi slipped 0.42%, and the Kosdaq hovered near flat. On the brighter side, futures for Hong Kong’s Hang Seng suggested a positive open.
In the U.S., markets ended mixed on Tuesday as weakness in heavyweight tech stocks pulled down the Nasdaq and S&P 500. The Nasdaq Composite slid 166.84 points (0.82%) to 20,202.89, while the S&P 500 dipped 6.94 points (0.11%) to close at 6,198.01. In contrast, the Dow Jones bucked the trend, rising 400.17 points (0.91%) to finish at 44,494.94.
