Sensex, Nifty fall again as expiry-day volatility hits
In short
Sensex and Nifty fell for the second day on Tuesday. The Nifty closed below 22,750 as F&O expiry-day swings, oil prices, rupee weakness, FII selling, and higher US yields hurt sentiment.
This matters because the fall hit most sectors and wider market stocks. The report does not say whether the losses will continue or how long the geopolitical worries will last.
What the reporting says
The Sensex and Nifty declined for a second straight session on Tuesday amid F&O expiry-day volatility, according to the publisher-supplied summary. The report cited persistent uncertainty over the Iran war and a peace deal, continued FII selling, rupee weakness, rising crude oil prices and elevated US Treasury yields as pressures. The Nifty closed below 22,750, while broader markets and most sectoral indices weakened.
Why it matters

The summary linked the decline to F&O expiry volatility, Iran war uncertainty, foreign selling, rupee weakness, higher crude prices, and elevated US Treasury yields.
