The Indian stock markets, including the Sensex and Nifty 50, are experiencing significant pressure as tensions in West Asia escalate. Analysts indicate that the near-term outlook for the markets remains subdued, primarily due to stalled negotiations between the United States and Iran. The ongoing naval blockades and Iran's seizure of two ships have further contributed to a fragile risk appetite among investors.
