SGX Nifty Up 26 Points; Indicates Flat Opening for Indian Stock Markets
Fri, 4 Feb SGX Nifty

The SGX Nifty opened on a positive note today.

At 8:10 am, it was trading up by 26 points, or 0.2% higher at 17,583 levels.

Asian stock markets are trading on a mixed note today.

The Hang Seng is trading up by 2.5%, while the Shanghai Composite is trading down by 1%. The Nikkei is trading on a flat note.

In US stock markets, Wall Street snapped a four-session winning streak on Thursday, with all three benchmarks ending lower after Facebook-owner Meta Platforms' dour forecast sent its stock plummeting and halted a nascent recovery built on upbeat earnings from other big tech.

Meta shares sank 26.4%, wiping around more than US$200 bn off its market value, according to Reuters calculations, as it blamed Apple's privacy changes and increased competition from rivals such as TikTok for its disappointing outlook.

The decline in market capitalization was the largest ever recorded by a US company in a single session, eclipsing when Apple Inc shed US$180 bn on 3 September 2020.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 518 points, or 1.5%, the S&P 500 lost 111.9 points, or 2.4% and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 538.7 points, or 3.7%.

US stock futures are trading on a positive note today with Dow Futures up by 151 points.

Gold prices were steady today, and set for a weekly gain as a weaker dollar, concerns over stubborn inflation and tensions surrounding Ukraine lifted demand for the safe-haven bullion.

Crude oil prices climbed today, extending sharp gains in the previous session as frigid weather swept across large swathes of the United States, threatening to further disrupt oil supplies.

Back home, Emami and ITC will be among the top buzzing stocks today.
