    What's the story

    Nifty50 and Sensex on Friday opened at their all-time highs.

    This rise is an extension of the upbeat investor mood sparked by the US Federal Reserve's decision to keep benchmark rates steady while hinting at potential rate cuts in 2024.

    During the early trade, Sensex was up 498 points or 0.78% at 71,013 and Nifty50 was up 152 points or 0.72% at 21,335.

    Both Nifty Oil and Gas and Nifty Energy witnessed growth exceeding 1% each.
