Gift Nifty indicates a muted opening for the broader index in India. The Nifty futures were trading flat around the 24,951.50 level.
Wall Street’s three major indexes marked record closing highs with modest gains on Thursday, largely thanks to support from the technology sector, while investors cautiously monitored private labor market data on the second day of a U.S. government shutdown.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 78.62 points, or 0.17%, to 46,519.72. The S&P 500 gained 4.15 points, or 0.06%, to 6,715.35, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 88.89 points, or 0.39%, to 22,844.05.
Asian stocks were poised for solid weekly gains on Friday as rising odds of the Federal Reserve cutting rates in the near-term helped cushion jitters around a U.S. government shutdown that has pushed gold to record highs and weighed on the dollar.
Japan’s Nikkei and the Taiwanese weighted index went up 1.54 percent and 0.48 percent, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng went down 0.61 percent.
