  • Sensex, Nifty likely to open lower amid rising oil prices and geopolitical tensions
    May 19, 2026, 11:45 PM EDT. Indian stock markets are expected to open lower on Wednesday due to rising oil prices, higher U.S. bond yields, and renewed geopolitical tensions stemming from the Iran conflict. Nifty futures indicated a cautious start below Tuesday's close, with analysts citing weak global cues and investor concerns over inflation and global uncertainty. Foreign institutional investors remained net sellers, offloading Rs 2,457 crore of Indian shares amid persistent outflows totaling nearly USD 23 billion this year. Elevated crude prices, fueled by ongoing Middle East tensions, pose inflation risks and pressure the rupee. Investors will focus on quarterly corporate earnings amid continued market volatility, as Nifty50 trades within a weak range between 23,300 and 23,800 points.
