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

Asian markets are set to decline for a fifth day after U.S. shares dropped on Wednesday as concern over American regional banks outweighed better-than-expected technology earnings. Equity futures in Japan, Australia and Hong Kong are all lower, placing a gauge of the region’s equities on course for its longest run of daily losses this year. Contracts for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 edged higher in early Asian trading after results from Meta Platforms Inc. beat analyst estimates, pushing its shares 11% higher in after-hours trading. On Wednesday, U.S. markets witnessed a second daily decline for the S&P 500 Index with all sectors except technology falling. The Nasdaq 100 edged higher, helped along by upbeat earnings from Alphabet Inc. and Microsoft Corp. late Tuesday. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year treasuries in U.S. was trading at 3.45%. Crude prices dropped nearly 3% to around $77-mark, while Bitcoin was trading above 28,000-level. At 5:41 a.m., the Singapore-traded SGX Nifty, an early indicator of the Nifty 50 Index’s performance in India, was down 0.19% at 17,795. Domestic benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty, rallied in the last hour of trade to pare early losses and close in the green for the fifth straight session. Indian rupee gained against the U.S. dollar, tracking the weakness of the greenback in the overseas market.
