  • Sensex Gains 2,000 Points Amid Middle East Tensions as Oil Prices Ease
    March 18, 2026, 1:28 AM EDT. The Sensex surged over 2,000 points this week, rebounding roughly 2.7% despite ongoing Iran conflict and geopolitical risks. Key support came as crude oil prices cooled, easing inflation concerns and stabilizing markets. The S&P BSE Sensex rose 492.29 points to 76,563.13, led by IT and auto sectors. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought shares worth Rs 88,345.38 crore, offsetting foreign institutional investors' (FIIs) Rs 70,989.96 crore in sales. Bargain hunting after last week's sharp decline and select sector buying, especially in telecom, pharmaceuticals, and defense, also helped sustain the rally. Market strategists note investors are rotating away from expensive IT and FMCG stocks toward more resilient segments, navigating uncertainty with cautious optimism.
