Indian equity markets close in red on account of global worries

Indian stock markets end the week in red after a stellar performance on Wednesday. The fade out in markets happened due weak global cues. The hotter than expected inflation numbers dampened the hopes of US rate cuts. This meant that US bond yields would stay higher for longer, impacting foreign inflows. Higher commodity prices and geo-political tensions further hampered sentiments. Nifty 50 was flat with marginal gains of 0.03% underperforming Nifty Midcap 150 Index and the Nifty Small cap 250 Index which also registered slight gains of 0.3% and 0.5% respectively.

Sectoral indices were a mixed bag. Nifty Metal, Nifty Realty and Nifty Oil and Gas were high performers gaining 2.9%, 1.6% and 1.3% respectively. While Nifty Oil and Gas, Nifty Healthcare and Nifty FMCG were at the bottom. Nifty Pharma, Nifty PSU Banks and Nifty Media were at the bottom with (-) 1.9%, (-) 1.5% and (-) 1.5% respectively.

It was a lackluster week for global indices. S&P 500 (US) Index^, and Dow Jones^ fell by (-) 0.1%, (-) 1.1% respectively. Nasdaq^ registered positive gains of 1.2%. UK markets were rallied as ECB maintained policy rates. FTSE registered marginal a gain of 4.1%. Asian markets were a mixed bag. Nikkei was positive, gaining 1.4%. Hang Seng, Kospi and Shanghai Composite Index fell by (-) 0.01%, (-) 1.3% and (-) 1.0% respectively.
