Tech View: Nifty50 forms small bullish candle
Nifty50 on Monday saw a gap-down start, but the index managed to close above the opening level, forming a small bullish candle on the daily scale.

Hong Kong shares slump more than 4% in early trade
Hong Kong’s benchmark share index returned from a one-day holiday sharply lower on Tuesday, slumping more than 4% as worries over higher interest rates and slowing economic growth sapped investor sentiment.

S&P 500 stock futures and Dow Jones futures both fell 0.5% and Nasdaq futures were down 0.6%.

Central banks in the United States, Britain and Australia raised interest rates last week and investors girded for more tightening as policymakers fight soaring inflation.

Asian shares tumbled to their lowest in nearly two years on Tuesday as investors shed riskier assets on worries about higher interest rates and their impact on economic growth, while the dollar held near 20-year highs.

Rupee slumps to all-time low of 77.44 on forex outflows
Extending its losses for a second day, the rupee on Monday slumped by 54 paise to close at a record low of 77.44 against the US dollar, pressured by the strength of the American currency overseas and unabated foreign fund outflows. Forex traders said risk appetite has weakened amid rising bond yields in the US and mounting concerns about inflation that may trigger more aggressive rate hikes by global central banks.
