Stock market Today: Indian markets closed the day on a cautious note, with both Sensex and Nifty seeing marginal slips on mixed global cues and sectoral pressure. Selling in metal, oil & gas, PSU banks, and realty stocks pulled the indices down, and continued weakness in the rupee did not help investor sentiment. Broader markets also reflected weakness as midcaps and smallcaps came under pressure, and market breadth was clearly skewed towards decliners. However, selective buying in IT, FMCG, and media stocks gave the markets a bit of support and helped cap the losses. Despite the volatility, investors are closely watching earnings trends and global economic signals for near-term direction of the markets.
