Indian markets ended nearly flat today, with Nifty 50 and Sensex slightly down due to prevailing global uncertainties. The Federal Reserve's inflation gauge indicated persistent inflation in the US, hinting at future rate hikes. This has contributed to cautious sentiment among investors, particularly affecting Banking and IT sectors in India as FIIs pulled out ₹212 Cr. Additionally, geopolitical tensions involving the US and Iran have kept energy costs volatile, impacting investor confidence in energy and auto sectors.
