Indian Shares Expected to Open Cautiously as US Treasury Yields and Crude Prices Jump

The Indian stock market is set for a muted start on Wednesday after a sharp rise in the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield and higher crude oil prices. Asian markets opened mixed, reflecting divergent reactions to global cues. U.S. stock futures fell as investors awaited the Federal Reserve’s policy decision later today. Wall Street closed lower for a second straight session, adding pressure on global equities. In India, only a few AI‑linked stocks managed to hold their ground amid the broader sell‑off. Analysts note that the combination of rising U.S. yields and surging crude creates a cautious mood among traders. The market’s opening is likely to be tentative until the Fed’s decision provides clearer direction.
