On the domestic front, Services PMI data came in better than expectation."Geojit Financial Services' Head of Research Vinod Nair said: "After a sideways movement post its positive opening, the indices took a downturn as major global indices traded weak ahead of the Fed policy announcement.""The Federal Reserve is widely expected to announce the tapering of its asset purchase programme in the near-term while any hint on interest rate reversal is keeping investors on the edge. Any indications showing a faster rate of tapering will have a negative effect on the equity market. Or else, we can ex pect a reversal from this weak trend."Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
