Global Markets:
Asia-Pacific markets declined on Thursday, tracking losses on Wall Street that saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average touch a new closing low for the year.
Bank of Japan kept the interest rates steady at 0.75% but noted that inflation risks now are tilted to the upside due to the Iran war.
In the commodities market, Brent crude for May 2026 settlement rallied$ 3.85 or 3.59% to $111.23 a barrel.
Overnight in the U.S., the 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial lost 1.63%, ending at 46,225.15, reaching a new low this year. The index also closed below its 200-day moving average. The S&P 500 fell 1.36%, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.46%.
The Federal Reserve held its key policy rate steady at 3.5% to 3.75%, with Chair Jerome Powell watering down rate-cut expectations, saying that inflation was not coming down as much as 'hoped.'
The U.S. central bank's 'dot plot' projects a cut in 2026 and another in 2027, even though the timing is unclear.
The producer price index ' which tracks the change in wholesale prices ' rose 0.7% in February, well above the 0.3% that economists polled by Dow Jones had estimated.
Domestic Market:
Domestic equity benchmarks ended Wednesday's session with strong gains, extending their rally for the third straight day, even as the ongoing Middle East conflict kept investor sentiment cautious.
The S&P BSE Sensex jumped 633.29 points or 0.83% to 76,704.13. The Nifty 50 index surged 196.65 points or 0.83% to 23,777.80. In three consecutive trading sessions, the Sensex and Nifty climbed 2.87% and 2.71% respectively.
