Today's Morning Note
Crude oil fell nearly 3 percent yesterday.
US markets closed higher last night — no clear reason behind the move.
Indian markets also ended slightly higher yesterday.
As I write this, Asian markets are trading higher this morning.
Indian markets are showing the same positivity right now — let's watch how it closes.
Today is the weekly expiry.
Gold and silver prices are down as well.
With the quarter ending, don't get trapped by this mild positivity — wait until the first week of October.
Observing is the best strategy for now.
