India Market Recap

India's total market capitalisation crossed $5 trillion, regaining its position as the fourth-largest equity market. Benchmark indices extended gains for the fourth straight session, ending near six-week highs. Nifty 50 rose 0.40% to close at 24,085.70, while Sensex gained 0.45% to 77,155.62.

US Market Recap

Wall Street remained largely steady ahead of the Fed meet decision slated for later in the day on Thursday. S&P 500 and Dow Jones remained little changed, while tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite edged higher as stocks recovered from their rout. 

S&P 500 opened 0.9% higher at 7,524.50, Dow Jones was stable at 52,013.52 after a record high closing in the previous session, and Nasdaq was up 0.46% at open to 26,493.82. 

As of 10:22 a.m. EST, S&P 500 traded 0.23% higher at 7,527.88, Nasdaq traded 0.11% higher at 26,483.8 and Dow was up 0.5% 53,264.90. 

Asian Market Update

Asian stocks opened primarily higher on Thursday as US-Iran signed peace deal and investors assessed a more hawkish message from the U.S. Federal Reserve, with Japan's Nikkei 225 and South Korea's Kospi extending gains after touching fresh highs. Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 1.44%, while South Korea's Kospi advanced 0.93%. Thailand's SET Index climbed 1.16%. Australia's ASX 200 fell 0.14%, while New Zealand's NZX 50 remained 0.03% lower.

Commodity Check

Oil prices dropped on Thursday as an agreement was signed between the US and Iran, raising hopes that crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz could gradually return to normal and ease concerns over global supply disruptions. Brent crude fell below $78 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate traded near $76. Meanwhile, gold jumped, driven by US-Iran peace deal, despite the Federal Reserve signaled a rate hike later in the year. The precious metal  traded near $4,295 an ounce following a 1.7% fall in the previous session.
