Sensex slides 537.83 points in early trade as US-Iran tensions lift Brent crude 2.55% to USD 76.05
AI Market Summary
Renewed US'Iran tensions lifted Brent crude ~2.55% to ~$76/bbl, triggering risk-off positioning across Asian equities and pressuring India's Sensex/Nifty in early trade. Higher energy prices raise inflation and policy uncertainty, undermining the recent improvement in macro sentiment and FII inflows. Spillover weakness in Nikkei and KOSPI reinforces a broader regional de-risking impulse despite mixed performance elsewhere in Asia.
