Sensex and Nifty Open Lower Amid US-Iran Tensions and Await Fed Outlook
Indian stock markets opened lower on Monday, with the Sensex falling between 133.78 and 285.90 points and the Nifty dropping around 58 points, following a rebound in the previous week. The declines were influenced by renewed US-Iran military tensions raising concerns over global energy supplies and crude oil prices. IT stocks had supported gains last week, driven by positive earnings from Nvidia and optimism about AI investments, while investors awaited clarity on US interest rates from the upcoming Federal Reserve symposium.
