The US Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, lowering its benchmark policy rate to 4%-4.25% to support a cooling labor market. Markets react positively with the Sensex jumping 447 points and the Nifty gaining 117 points. This rate cut may attract foreign capital, benefiting Indian stock markets, especially sectors like BFSI, IT, Metals, and FMCG.
