Indian stock market: The domestic equity market indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are expected to open on a cautious note Wednesday tracking mixed cues from global peers.

Asian markets traded lower, while the US stock market ended mixed overnight on economic concerns.

Markets are currently pricing in 66% chance of the US Federal Reserve cutting rates by 25 basis points, while 34% chance is ascribed for a 50 bps cut when the Fed delivers its decision on September 18, CME FedWatch tool showed.

On Tuesday, the Indian stock market indices ended higher led by positive global cues, with the benchmark Nifty 50 reclaiming 25,000 level.

The Sensex gained 361.75 points, or 0.44%, to close at 81,921.29, while the Nifty 50 settled 104.70 points, or 0.42%, higher at 25,041.10.

“Nifty closing above the psychological 25,000 mark shows that investors continue to be upbeat about the country’s strong growth prospects despite global recessionary concerns. Sliding crude oil prices remains a worry as falling demand increases risks of global slowdown,” said Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities Ltd.
