Sensex Today Rallies 600 Points, Tops 73,000 Mark | Nifty Above 22,000 | Wipro Surges 10%

Asian shares got off to a sluggish start on Monday ahead of a week packed with geopolitical risk, Chinese economic data and earnings reports from major US banks.

The Nikkei index was trading 0.2% lower, while Hang Seng was trading 0.5% lower. Meanwhile Shanghai index shed 0.4%.

US stocks barely changed on Friday, after wavering between modest gains and losses, as mixed bank earnings offset cooler-than-expected inflation news that buoyed hopes for interest-rate cuts from the Federal Reserve.

Adani Enterprises on Friday received a Letter of Award (LoA) from Solar Energy Corporation of India for setting up manufacturing capacity for Electrolysers in the country under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition Scheme.
