Global Cues
On the global front, investors are awaiting key macroeconomic data, including the UK’s GDP growth figures and the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) interest rate decision. Back home, market participants will keep an eye on India’s external debt and government budget value data, while the weekly expiry of Nifty derivatives is also expected to influence sentiment.
Asian markets were trading mixed on Tuesday morning ahead of the RBA’s rate decision. A Reuters poll suggests the RBA is likely to keep its cash rate unchanged at 3.6%, as stubbornly high inflation limits the scope for policy easing.
Regionally, Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.10%, South Korea’s Kospi added 0.27%, while Japan’s Nikkei 225 slipped 0.17%.
Overnight in the US, Wall Street’s major indices ended higher, led by the Nasdaq Composite, which rose 0.48% as investors picked up large-cap technology stocks. This rebound came despite lingering concerns about a potential US government shutdown and hawkish remarks from Federal Reserve officials. The S&P 500 gained 0.26%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average inched up 0.15%.
