Stock market today : BSE Sensex and Nifty50 , the Indian equity benchmark indices, opened in red on Wednesday. While BSE Sensex was below 81,700, Nifty50 was just above 25,000. At 9:22 AM, BSE Sensex was trading at 81,670.33, down 150 points or 0.18%. Nifty50 was at 25,023.25, down 34 points or 0.14%.
"This market movement aligns with expectations, and we recommend maintaining a cautious stance until Nifty decisively surpasses the 25,300 level. However, select sectors and themes are still presenting buying opportunities, so traders should focus on stock selection and adopt a balanced approach," said Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking.
According to Nagaraj Shetti of HDFC Securities, Nifty's short-term trend remains choppy, with the market currently trading within a broader range of 25,200-24,900 levels. A decisive move above 25,200 could lead to further upside towards 25,500-25,600 levels in the near term, while immediate support is at 24,900.
US stock indexes closed lower on Tuesday, with the Nasdaq falling 1% due to concerns about chip stock demand, while the energy sector dropped 3% as oil prices declined. The Dow dipped 0.75%, the S&P 500 was down 0.76%, and the Nasdaq fell 1.01%.
Asian stocks also declined following the US selloff, triggered by a disappointing outlook from Europe's most valuable tech firm and concerns about tighter US curbs on chip sales. As of 9:25 a.m. Tokyo time, S&P 500 futures were little changed, while Hang Seng futures fell 1.3%, Japan's Topix fell 0.5%, Australia's S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.4%, and Euro Stoxx 50 futures fell 1.6%.
