Stock Market Live: Sensex, Nifty Likely To Open Lower; Nikkei, Kospi Tumble 3% Each; Q2 Earnings, US Midterm Election Outcome In Focus

1 minute ago

Indian benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty 50, are likely to track mixed global cues on Wednesday, November 4, with investors keeping an eye on the US midterm election outcome, crude oil prices, and ongoing geopolitical tensions involving the US-Iran and Russia-Ukraine conflicts.

GIFT Nifty futures were trading 61 points lower at 23,719.5, compared with the Nifty 50 futures' previous close of 23,780.5, indicating a weak start for domestic equities.

In the previous trading session, the BSE Sensex settled at 76,917.85, gaining 1,225.07 points, or 1.62%. The NSE Nifty 50 also ended higher, rising 370.05 points, or 1.58%, to close at 23,810.85.

Global Cues

Asian markets were trading mixed amid uncertainty over the US midterm election results, with early indications pointing towards a possible Democratic victory over Republicans.

South Korea's Kospi rebounded from the previous session's decline, rising 1.6%. However, Japan's Nikkei 225 tumbled 1.56%, while the Topix slipped 0.55%. Australia's ASX 200 was also trading 0.52% lower.

Crude Oil Prices Today

Crude oil prices resumed their upward move on Wednesday, November 4, after declining for two consecutive sessions, as investors assessed the uncertainty surrounding peace negotiations between the US and Iran.

Brent crude was last trading 0.74% higher at $104.30 a barrel.

Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the US and Iran were considering fresh proposals put forward by mediators to resolve their differences. However, Iran's national security chief indicated in a social media post that Washington's response to the proposals remained unsatisfactory.

Investors will also track developments in the ongoing geopolitical conflicts, along with the latest corporate earnings announcements, for further cues on the domestic market.
