INDIAN BENCHMARKS NEWS UPDATES


INDIAN BENCHMARKS are trading on a lower note during the morning trading session mirroring losses in the global equities after the recent rally in oil prices reversed stoking concerns regarding the outlook of the global economy. Oil futures slipped on oversupply glut. Rise in US crude stocks raised concerns about global oversupply, outweighing moves by oil producers including Saudi Arabia and Russia to cap oil output. US crude inventories rose by 2.1 million barrels last week, to a peak of 504.1 million barrels, the third week of record highs in the past month, data from the US government's Energy Information Administration (EIA) showed on Thursday. At 9:29 am BSE SENSEX was at 23609.52, down by 39.7 points or by 0.17% while the NSE Nifty Trading Tips was at 7161.45, down by 30.3 points or by 0.42%. The top gainers of the BSE Sensex pack were M&M up 1.02%, Wipro up 0.99%, RIL up 0.98%, Bajaj Auto 0.96%, Bharti Airtel 0.75%, among others. The top losers of the BSE Sensex pack were BHEL 1.88%, Coal India 1.29%, Axis Bank 1.14%, ITC 1.02%, GAIL 0.82%, among others.

Japanese shares witnessed profit taking after recent gains. Meanwhile strengthening of the Yen further hurt the sentiments. The benchmark Nikkei was down 2.3% while Shanghai Composite was down 0.1 % while Hang Seng eased 0.6% and Straits Times was down 0.4%
