Trump factor looms over mkt; Sensex sheds 1%

INDIAN equity investors lost ₹ 5.76 lakh crore on Tuesday as stock markets continue to remain in tight bear grip. Benchmark indices - Nifty and Sensex - fell by over 1.5% from its intra-day peak, closing the day lower by over 1%. This is for the fourth consecutive day that benchmark indices ended in the red.
