• Indian equity markets closed in the red tracking weak global cues. The U.S.
Federal Reserve, in its latest policy decision, kept the key interest rates on
hold as widely expected but stopped short of offering concrete signals on
further stimulus. The U.S. central bank also raised concern over the
economic recovery which triggered selling pressure.
• Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 lost 0.82% and 0.76%
to close at 38,979.85 and 11,516.10 respectively.
• The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 1,125 scrips advancing
and 1,612 scrips declining. A total of 159 scrips remained unchanged.
• On the BSE sectoral front, S&P BSE Healthcare was the major gainer, up
0.46% followed by S&P BSE IT, up 0.23% and S&P BSE Teck, up 0.07%. S&P
BSE Realty was the major loser, down 1.87% followed by S&P BSE Metal,
down 1.27% and S&P BSE Bankex, down 1.18%.
• Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) allowed emerging investment
vehicles to be listed on stock exchanges operating in the International
Financial Services Center (IFSC) with Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)
and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (Invits). SEBI has also asked bourses in
the IFSC to develop a detailed framework prescribing the initial and
continuous listing requirements for InvITs and REITs whose units are
proposed to be listed.
• According to a report released by the World Bank, India has been ranked at
the 116th position in the latest edition of the World Bank's annual Human
Capital Index which benchmarks key components of human capital across
countries. However, India's score increased to 0.49 from 0.44 in 2018. The
2020 Human Capital Index update provides data on health and education
for 174 nations, representing 98% of the world's population, offering a pre-
pandemic baseline on children's health and education by Mar 2020, with
the greatest progress being made in low-income countries.
• The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (Irdai) is
looking to establish a set of uniform products for different sectors in order
to significantly increase the security quotient in each segment. It is
developing a standard term product in life insurance space, and two MSME
segment offerings— one for micro-enterprises, the other for small
industries. A standard dwelling unit product will also be rolled out shortly.
• According to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, around 6.6 million
white collar professional jobs, including engineers, physicians, teachers,
were lost between May 2020 and Aug 2020. Thus, their employment fell to
the lowest level since 2016 and removed the gains achieved over the last
four years while five million industrial workers were out of work during the
period.

'significant' orders for its metallurgical and material handling business.

startup LabInApp. The deal size is pegged at $500,000.
• Asian markets went down following the outcome of the U.S. Federal
Reserve’s latest policy meeting. While the U.S. central bank left interest
rates unchanged and signaled rates are likely to remain at near-zero levels
through 2023, it cautioned that the pace of economic recovery is expected
to remain slow. Today (as on Sep 18), markets are trading higher with
investors focusing on the regional tech stocks following overnight losses of
their counterparts in U.S. Both Nikkei and Hang Seng are up 0.13% and
0.17%, respectively.
• European markets closed in the red, weighed down by warnings from the
Fed and the Bank of England about the outlook for the economy. Persisting
worries about the surge in coronavirus cases, including in France, the U.K.
and the U.S, and fears about a no-deal Brexit hurt as well.
• U.S. markets went down after U.S. Fed, in its policy meeting, cautioned that
the pace of the recovery is expected to remain slow and called for fiscal
stimulus from Congress.
