Verdict · Market mood

Markets opened lower for an eighth straight session, extending Monday's sharp sell-off, as the same pressures - expensive crude near $107/barrel, a weaker rupee past 96/dollar, and persistent foreign investor selling - carry into Tuesday. Financials, metals and auto stocks are among the sectors investors are watching most closely in early trade.

Watch nextWhether crude eases back from $107 as the US-Iran standoff develops further, how far the rupee slides past 96/dollar, and today's subscription closes for the Runwal Enterprises and Orient Cables IPOs.

Key drivers

  • Sensex was down around 578 points (-0.79%) to about 72,194 and Nifty 50 down around 175 points (-0.77%) to about 22,606 as of 10:00 AM IST, following Monday's 1.52%/1.56% fall
  • Brent crude held near $107/barrel, keeping India's import-cost and inflation concerns elevated after Monday's spike
  • The rupee traded around 96.15 to the US dollar, near its weakest levels, adding to the pressure of costlier crude imports
  • Foreign institutional investors have pulled billions out of Indian equities through September, with elevated US Treasury yields continuing to draw global capital away from emerging markets

News

  • Brent crude held near $107 a barrel, extending Monday's spike after US-Iran talks over the Strait of Hormuz broke down, keeping oil-driven inflation and rupee concerns front and center for the market.
  • The Indian rupee traded near 96.15 against the US dollar, pressured by the costlier crude import bill and a stronger dollar.
  • Foreign institutional investor selling continued into September, compounding pressure from elevated US Treasury yields drawing capital away from emerging markets like India.
