The BSE Sensex dropped by 721.08 points (-0.88%), closing at 81,463.09, while Nifty Bank crashed by 537.15 points (-0.94%), settling at 56,528.90.

🗣️ Fed Chairman vs Trump: Conflicting Views on Rate Cuts
In global developments, former U.S. President Donald Trump has called for aggressive rate cuts, urging the Fed to act immediately to support financial markets. However, the Federal Reserve Chairman has shown reluctance, citing long-term inflation stability as a priority.
“Trump is trying to pressure the Fed for short-term market gain, but the Fed chief seems fully aware of the bigger economic picture,” say financial analysts.
This ongoing policy tug-of-war has led to volatility in emerging markets, including India.
