Developments Shaping The Market

• Middle East Tensions: The Middle East tensions have been affecting the stock markets across the globe. In the latest turn of events, Hezbollah has rejected a proposed ceasefire by the US in Lebanon. This has raised fresh concerns.

• Rupee’s Decline: The Indian National Rupee (INR) has been constantly declining due to geopolitical uncertainty and volatile energy prices. On Friday, the currency opened marginally higher at 95.72 per US dollar. The previous close was at 95.79.

• Oil Prices Unchanged: Oil prices remain largely unchanged after suffering heavy losses in the previous session. As hopes for a near-term resolution to the US-Iran conflict faded, prices could move further northwards.

• RBI’s Policy Announcement: All eyes are now on the Reserve Bank of India’s policy announcement scheduled for 10 AM on Friday. There is anticipation that the central bank would make a move to stabilise the INR’s free fall.
