Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: GIFT Nifty indicates a 110-point gap-down start; Brent near $90

Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: The Nifty 50 index has had a forgettable month of August, with the index having declined around 200 points from the end of July. Last week turned out to be another rangebound one, with no significant moves on either side. The index remains locked in the 24,000 – 24,400 range.

The bulls will hope for a breakout on the upside in a week that will include the weekly expiries, macro data, and many other triggers.

A major one to watch today will be the MSCI rebalancing, which will take place during the closing minutes of trade. This will be the first rebalancing that will take place after the introduction of the Closing Auction Session.

Although the Nifty Bank has had a slightly better month compared to the Nifty, it also remains stuck in the 57,000 – 58,000 band. HDFC Bank could well be the stock to watch today, and that could determine moves both in the Nifty and the Nifty Bank. Brent crude is back at $90. Also keep an eye on Eternal, Laurus Labs, SBI Card, Ola Electric and others.
