The Indian benchmark indices looked set to extend their fall to the third day in a row amid a host of weak macro cues. Also, volatility could remain high on account of monthly F&O expiry. At 8.15 am, SGX Nifty was trading 50 points down at 17,655. The US markets traded with caution on Wednesday amid crude oil disruptions, inflation, and ongoing debt ceiling debate. Overnight, the Dow Jones and S&P 500 index bounced back a wee bit in green, but Nasdaq however, ended 0.3 percent lower. This morning, the Asian markets are trading on a mixed note. Shanghai and Straits Times are up, while Nikkei and Hang Seng are down.
