Benchmark indices NSE Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex ended Tuesday’s session deeply in the red. “The domestic benchmark’s ascent towards a record high was interrupted by selling pressure in heavyweight stocks, although small and mid-cap stocks outperformed. As anticipated, the Eurozone economy experienced modest growth of 0.1% QoQ in the Jan-Mar period, following a stagnant previous quarter. In the US market, cautious trading prevailed as debt-ceiling negotiations took precedence,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.
