Today leans constructive
US futures lower · Asia mixed
Yesterday's thread was whether that foreign selling would carry through. It flipped — foreign investors came back as net buyers. The tape's leaning higher but GIFT Nifty points to a gap-down open. US futures are lower overnight, and Asia's mixed this morning. The thread to watch: whether GIFT's lead holds through the session.
Domestic institutions have been net buyers for the 8th session running.
BSE delivery 67.5% on Wed 23 Sep, above its 64% one-month norm but within the usual daily range.
