Stocks To Watch: Reliance Industries, Tata Motors, SBI, Future Group

New Delhi:

The domestic stock indices are likely to trade lower on Wednesday, taking cues from their global peers. Asian stocks declined in early trade today, tracking a poor Wall Street session overnight as the U.S. consumer confidence data dampened investor optimism and fueled worries over a recession.

Trends on SGX Nifty indicated a gap-down opening for the markets back home. The Nifty Futures on Singapore Exchange, also known as the SGX Nifty Futures, fell 151.50 points or 0.96 per cent to 15,702.

The 30-share BSE Sensex had edged 16 points or 0.03 per cent higher to close at 53,177 on Tuesday, while the broader NSE Nifty had moved 18 points or 0.11 per cent up to settle at 15,850.
