Global risk tone remains fragile this morning. US markets saw heavy intraday selling overnight, falling more than 2% before trimming losses into the close. Futures remain weak and tech continues to lead the downside. Crude is the bigger concern. Brent briefly moved above $84 and still trades well above recent averages as Middle East tensions keep energy risk elevated. Dollar strength is creeping in with DXY near 99, while US 10Y yields hover around the 4% zone, a combination that typically tightens liquidity for risk assets. Asian markets are trading firmly in the red and Gift Nifty is indicating a sharp gap-down start, currently down ~586 points (-2.34%), even after recovering from deeper overnight losses. After previous sessions close at 24865, the opening tone will likely be driven by global risk sentiment. Early trade could remain volatile as markets adjust to higher crude and geopolitical uncertainty.
