Stocks To Watch: Wipro, HDFC, Nykaa, Hero MotoCorp
New Delhi: The domestic stock indices are likely to trade in green on Wednesday, taking cues from their global peers. Asian stocks steadied and demand for safe-havens waned a little as investors regarded Russian troop movements near Ukraine and initial Western sanctions as leaving room to avoid a war. Trends on SGX Nifty indicated a positive opening for the markets back home. The Nifty Futures on Singapore Exchange also known as the SGX Nifty Futures rose 38 points or 0.22 per cent to 17,240.50.
The benchmark BSE Sensex had dropped 383 points or 0.66 per cent to close at 57,301 on Tuesday; while the broader NSE Nifty had moved 114 points or 0.67 per cent lower to end at 17,092.
