  • Sensex Drops 800 Points as Crude Oil Surges and Rupee Hits Record Low
    May 18, 2026, 7:10 AM EDT. The Indian stock market saw sharp declines with the Sensex falling 494.68 points to 74,743.31 and the Nifty slipping 167.85 points to 23,475.65, driven by surging crude oil prices and geopolitical tensions in West Asia. Brent crude rose 1.79% to USD 111.2 per barrel, pressuring the rupee to a record low of 96.25 against the US dollar. All Nifty sector indices traded lower except IT, with heavyweights like Tata Steel and HDFC Bank notably down. Mid and small caps were hit harder, reflecting broad market weakness. Elevated oil costs threaten inflation and corporate profits in the import-dependent Indian economy. The drone attack on the Barakah nuclear facility further unsettled investors, compounding risk concerns.
