Sensex Finishes on Higher Note
India’s BSE Sensex closed 0.5% firmer at 77,301 on Wednesday, its highest level since late August and advancing for a fifth straight session. Improving foreign fund inflows, easing crude prices and positive earnings supported market sentiment. The US midterm elections drew investor attention, particularly over their potential implications for Trump's trade and foreign policies. For India, the results come at a sensitive time as trade negotiations continue and visa restrictions remain a concern. Among individual stocks, BEL and Titan were the top performers, each risign over 4%. Conversely, heavyweight counters such as TCS, Infosys and HCL Technologies faced selling pressure, on profit-taking amid concerns over global technology demand.
