SGX Nifty Up 84 Points; Indicates Firm Opening for Indian Stock Markets
Fri, 17 Sep SGX Nifty

The SGX Nifty opened on a positive note today.

At 8:10 am, it was trading up by 84 points, or 0.5% higher at 17,695 levels.

Trends on SGX Nifty indicate a firm opening for Indian stock markets.

Asian stock markets are trading on a steady note today as traders weighed risks from China to the global recovery and the prospect of reduced Federal Reserve stimulus.

The Hang Seng is trading up by 0.2%, while the Shanghai Composite is trading down by 0.3%. The Nikkei is trading up by 0.5%.

In US stock markets, Wall Street indices fell on Thursday as losses in heavyweight technology and oil stocks offset cheer over strong retail sales indicating economic resilience.

US retail sales unexpectedly increased in August, likely tempering expectations for a sharp slowdown in economic growth in the third quarter.

Treasury yields and the dollar stayed higher following surprise strength in US retail sales, which eased worries over the impact of the delta variant and highlighted the case for the Federal Reserve to scale back pandemic-era emergency support.

Meanwhile, the labour market remained under pressure, with data showing initial jobless claims were slightly more than expected last week.
