Market-View-Feature-Image

View on market: Stay Cautious, be with quality business:

Asian stocks were poised to decline Wednesday as negotiations over raising the U.S. debt ceiling remained at an impasse, sapping sentiment for risk taking. Futures for equity benchmarks in Hong Kong, Japan and Australia were all down at least 0.5%, following drops of more than 1% for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100. Contracts for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 increased about 0.3%, an index of Asian shares also rose 0.3% and Euro Stoxx 50 futures climbed 0.2%. In the U.S., debt negotiations continued but progress appeared limited, with some House Republicans questioning the urgency of a deadline imposed by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen for when the government will start missing debt payments. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year treasuries in U.S. was trading at 3.70%. Crude was trading below $77-mark, while Bitcoin advanced above 27,000-level. At 05:42 a.m., the Singapore-traded SGX Nifty, an early indicator of the Nifty 50 Index’s performance in India, down up 0.44% at 18,280. Domestic benchmarks closed marginally higher as Adani Group stocks led the gains while private banks dragged. Meanwhile, the Indian rupee snapped its four-day decline against U.S. dollar following marginal rise in domestic equities.
