U.S. stock indices closed at fresh record highs on Tuesday, lifted by gains in Nvidia after it announced plans to build AI supercomputers for the U.S. Energy Department. Investor sentiment also remained upbeat ahead of earnings from major tech giants this week.

Markets widely expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 25 basis points on Wednesday to support the labor market, with attention turning to Chair Jerome Powell’s press conference later in the day.

Investors are eyeing two key outcomes from the Fed — a 0.25% rate cut and limited forward guidance amid mixed views within the committee.
Gift Nifty indicates a flat-to-positive start for Indian equities.
Nifty is expected to trade within the 25,800–26,150 range today. In the previous session (October 28), Indian indices ended marginally lower amid volatility tied to the F&O monthly expiry.
The Sensex slipped 150.68 points (0.18%) to 84,628.16, while the Nifty fell 29.85 points (0.11%) to 25,936.20.
Metal and PSU Bank sectors gained around 1.2% each, while IT, Pharma, FMCG, and Realty sectors declined up to 1%.
The index formed a bullish candle after two days of decline, indicating strength.
A move above 26,100 could take the Nifty higher towards 26,300–26,500.
If it fails to cross this level, sideways consolidation between 25,600–26,100 is likely.
Key support remains at 25,500–25,700, a strong buy zone near the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the recent rally.
