Sensex Rises Over 300 Points To Above The 61,000 Mark

Stock Market India: Sensex jumps over 300 points to above 61,000 points

Indian equity benchmarks started on a positive note on Tuesday after rising for three straight sessions, tracking gains in Asian bourses on hopes the Federal Reserve may pull back from its aggressive interest rate hike rhetoric at the policy meeting this week.

The BSE Sensex index rose over 300 points to above the 61,000 level, and the broader NSE Nifty index opened in the green and stayed above the 18,000 mark.

Both benchmarks rose above key psychological levels on Monday to over a one-month high, extending weekly gains for the third week.

Asian equities too broadly rose even as regional factory output data showed a fall in October as global economic fears and China's zero-COVID policy harmed demand and added to the ongoing supply problems and dimmed recovery hopes.

In addition to the Fed's rate decision and policy path, the market will pay close attention to the Reserve Bank of Australia's meeting on Tuesday, US jobs data on Friday, and Chinese economic activity data this week.

Wall Street was down overnight as investors looked ahead to this week's policy meeting of the Federal Reserve for clues as to what will come next.

"It was a mixed start for risk assets as a big week of central bank decisions gets underway," said ANZ analysts in a note.

In the global energy market, oil prices decreased as a result of investor expectations that the US supply may rise.

US Defense Chief Austin To Make 'Full Recovery' From Cancer: Doctors

Austin, a 70-year-old career soldier, initially underwent minor surgery to treat cancer on December 22. Washington: US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is likely to make a "full recovery" from prostate cancer and his prognosis is "excellent," two doctors said after he was seen at Walter Reed hospital for a follow-up appointment. Austin controversially kept US President Joe Biden in the dark about the cancer diagnosis for weeks, and did not inform either the commander-in-chief or Congress until days after he was hospitalized on January 1 for complications from his treatment. "Secretary Austin was seen today at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a scheduled post-prostatectomy surveillance appointment," the doctors said in a statement released by the Pentagon. "He continues to recover well and is expected to make a full recovery. Secretary Austin's prostate cancer was treated early and effectively, and his prognosis is excellent,...

North Korea Says It Tested New Strategic Cruise Missile

North Korea test-fired a new generation of strategic cruise missile on Wednesday. (Representational) Seoul: North Korea fired several cruise missiles towards the Yellow Sea on Wednesday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear-armed state. Hours later, North Korea appeared to confirm the firing, saying it had carried out its first test of a new generation of strategic cruise missiles it is developing, the Pulhwasal-3-31.

"Our military detected several cruise missiles launched by North Korea towards the Yellow Sea at around 7:00 am today," the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. Unlike their ballistic counterparts, the testing of cruise missiles is not banned under current UN sanctions against Pyongyang. Cruise...
