 "MARKET LIVE: Sensex off day's low, down 1,450 pts; Nifty50 below 15,800")
CLOSING BELL
Stock market highlights: A global rout in world equities engulfed Indian stocks on Monday as investors across the world shunned risky assets. Meanwhile, bond yields rose and emerging markets' currencies hit fresh lows against the US dollar.
The havoc comes after after May's US inflation print, at a 40-year high of 8.6 per cent, reignited fears that central banks will be forced into aggressive monetary policy tightening. The US Fed, Bank of England, and Bank of Japan are slated to announce their respective interest rate decisions this week.
Against this backdrop, the S&P BSE Sensex plunged 1,776 points intra-day before closing at 52,847, down 1,457 points or 2.68 per cent. The Nifty50, on the other hand, fell 427 points, or 2.64 per cent, to settle at 15,774. The index touched a low of 15,684 in intra-day trade.
