03/06/26, Market Early Hours News

 The benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty fells sharply on Wednesday as uncertainty over ​a U.S.-Iran peace deal kept ‌investors risk-averse, while higher oil prices and persistent foreign outflows also weighed on ​sentiment.

At around 9:30 a.m., the Sensex was down 796.56 points or 1.07 percent at 73,853.28, while the broader Nifty declined to 23,268.60, down 214.95 points or 0.92 percent.

Key factors behind market decline

1) US-Iran tensions: Gulf hostilities flared anew, with the ​U.S. military saying Iranian missile attacks on ⁠Bahrain, Kuwait and other regional ​targets either were thwarted or unsuccessful, ​as diplomacy between Washington and Tehran showed little progress.

2) Rising crude oil prices: The brent crude oil prices surged more than 1 percent to over $97 a barrel.

3) Rising Vix: The fear gauge or the volatility index rose nearly 8 percent to 16.57 level, indicating hightened uncertainity.

Technical Outlook

Anand James, Chief Market Strategist at Geojit Investments, said "Lower bollinger band support helped prices swing higher from the opening low yesterday, while the gains were limited to the 23500, on expected lines. If the dips are contained in the 23400-380 region today, a renewed push towards 23700 could be seen. Inability to do so should expose 23126-22800 again."
