Pre-Market
Section titled “Pre-Market”Markets Data
Section titled “Markets Data”Markets are expected to remain neutral with mixed signals. Overnight declines in major indices and rising US Treasury yields suggest caution, while a weaker dollar and lower USDINR rates may provide some support. FII inflows are positive, but DII outflows and India VIX rising indicate lingering uncertainty. Brent crude's increase adds to inflationary pressures, reinforcing a cautious outlook.
