Sensex sinks 300+ points, Nifty slips below 25,750 as markets stay shaky
Indian stock markets kept sliding for the third straight day on Wednesday.
Sensex dropped over 300 points to under 84,300 and Nifty fell below 25,750.
Stalled US-India trade talks and a global tech slump are making investors extra cautious right now.
Why does this matter?
If you're following the markets or have investments, these drops signal rising risks—especially for those holding big company stocks.
Delays in trade deals have made foreign investors jittery, wiping out nearly 0.9% from major indices in just three days.
A small rupee bounce and some renewed foreign investor buying offered brief relief, but uncertainty still rules.
What's behind the fall?
Losses hit sectors like pharma, auto, energy, and electronics hardest—think Sun Pharma or Tata Motors slipping up to 2%.
Plus, a tech selloff across Asia and higher oil prices are adding pressure on Indian stocks already sensitive to global moves.
