Indian benchmark indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty traded in green on Wednesday’s trading session. After the large downfall over 2 weeks, the green rally came into the markets. The Sensex climbed 304 points, or 0.38%, to close at 80539, while the Nifty gained 131 points, or 0.54%, to settle at 24619. The Nifty regained its position above 24500. The markets were down on the last day because of US tariff uncertainties, India’s July retail inflation data, and the US inflation data. But the markets were boosted from their opening and continued a bullish trend in today’s market.
India’s CPI retail inflation reached its low at 1.55% in July. This is the lowest CPI since June 2017. The steady US inflation data derived a rally in the global markets. US inflation data remained unchanged at 2.70%, which raises hopes for the Fed’s rate cut.
