Indian Markets Fall Third Day
The Indian stock markets, Sensex and Nifty 50, fell for the third day in a row.
This happened because the Indian rupee is getting weaker, foreign investors are selling Indian shares, and there's a delay in a trade deal between India and the US.
The mid and small-cap stocks fell even more than the main indexes.
The Sensex closed at 84,559.65, down by 120 points, and the Nifty 50 closed at 25,818.55, down by 42 points.
Foreign investors sold shares worth 23.8 billion rupees, and the rupee is now at 91 against the US dollar.
Sensex and Nifty 50 fell for the third consecutive session on December 17.
Sensex closed at 84,559.65, down 120 points (0.14%), and Nifty 50 closed at 25,818.55, down 42 points (0.16%).
Mid and small-cap segments underperformed, with BSE Midcap down 0.53% and Smallcap down 0.85%.
Concerns over rupee weakness, foreign capital outflow, and delayed India-US trade deal weighed on markets.
Foreign investors sold Indian shares worth 23.8 billion rupees, and the rupee is at 91 against the US dollar.
