Stock market today: The Indian stock market is expected to open lower on Wednesday, tracking mixed global cues amid caution surrounding the US-Iran conflict.
Trends in GIFT Nifty also signal a subdued start for the domestic benchmark. The GIFT Nifty was trading near the 24,303 mark, indicating a discount of about 90 points compared to the previous close of Nifty futures.
“Indian equities are to open on a cautious note on Wednesday, with Gift Nifty signalling a largely flat start following the sharp rebound seen in the previous session. After yesterday’s strong recovery, the market currently lacks fresh domestic triggers to sustain an immediate follow-through rally, suggesting that a phase of consolidation could emerge in the near term,” said Hariprasad K, SEBI-registered Research Analyst and Founder, Livelong Wealth.
On Tuesday, however, the Indian stock market ended on a positive note as improving risk sentiment lifted equities, with the Nifty 50 finishing above the 24,200 level.
