Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 27 (ANI): The stock market experienced a challenging start to the trading day on Wednesday as it opened in negative territory, reflecting broader global economic concerns.

The Sensex, India's leading stock index, commenced trading with a 0.23 per cent decline, opening at 65,782.84.

Global factors continue to exert pressure on markets worldwide. The DXY index (U.S. Dollar Index) has been on the rise, contributing to a challenging environment for US markets.

India, while showing resilience, remains susceptible to global trends.

The growing tension regarding a potential recession is affecting global markets. Major US indices like the Dow Jones and Nasdaq are grappling with sustained selling pressure, primarily driven by a hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve. This global uncertainty has repercussions worldwide.

Varun Aggarwal, founder and Managing director, Profit Idea said,"India on the flip side is showing a lot of strength but the usual saying is when the US sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. Nifty OI data suggest heavy put writing at 19500 but if this level breaks, the market will open the lower levels for 18887. This is most crucial level for bulls.

Looking at the world market, one should be cautious and form limited risk strategies".

"Selected blue chip, mid and small-cap stocks look good. It will be wise to have a stop loss as market is on the verge of make-or-break levels. A cautious approach or waiting and watching for few days will be better for traders and investors", added AggarwalIn India, Nifty Open Interest (OI) data indicate significant put writing at the 19500 level. However, market analysts caution that if this level is breached, it could pave the way for a downward trend toward 18,887, a pivotal point for the market.

As the world watches these global economic events unfold, analysts are recommending a cautious approach for traders and investors.

The current market climate is characterized by a make-or-break situation, and forming limited-risk strategies is advised.

While there remain positive indicators for selected blue-chip, mid-cap, and small-cap stocks, prudent investors and traders may opt for a cautious or wait-and-see stance in the days ahead.

The market's reaction to ongoing global developments will likely continue to influence its direction in the short term. (ANI)
