Fading the two days’ gaining momentum, the benchmark indices ended in red on Friday. The hawkish statement from the US Fed lowered the sentiment globally including in domestic markets. 

On Thursday, the bulls took the charge and forced the benchmark indices to close on a higher note. The broader markets also replicated the benchmark indices and closed in green. 

On Wednesday, reversing the previous sessions’ fall, the benchmark indices managed to settle in green. In the global market, European shares rose after a few positive earnings reports, which lifted sentiment while cautiousness over the Ukraine war, slowing growth, and rising yields monitored the gains closely. 

On Tuesday, the equity markets saw a highly volatile session and the benchmark indices ended lower with Nifty settling below 17,000 mark.

On Monday, the benchmark indices opened on a weak note in line with global markets. The quarterly results of HDFC Bank and Infosys lowered the investors’ sentiments and together comprised 500 points of the market plunge.  

On Wednesday, the markets made a gap-up opening but were unable to sustain the gains due to global cues & weekly expiry and thus, closed lower for the third consecutive session.  

The domestic benchmark indices closed in red for the second consecutive session in the volatile market on Tuesday. India VIX, the volatility gauge of domestic markets, was trading lower along with the headline indices. Before the session closed, it contracted 0.49 per cent, but is still holding above 18 levels. 

On Monday, the European and Asian markets traded lower at the beginning of the week with key central bank meetings and US inflation prints. The domestic benchmark indices traded lower as offhand global sentiments and rising bond yields undermined the rally in the equities. 

On Friday, the markets broke the losing streak and ended higher after RBI's Monetary Policy Committee kept the key rates unchanged. 

On Thursday, the benchmark indices ended lower for the third consecutive session, ahead of the RBI policy outcome on Friday.
