The global picture looks good today on talks that the European Central Bank will reintroduce its 12-month liquidity operations to help banks with longer-term fund-raising and to reduce jitters in the markets. After a drastic fall seen in the previous week, the Indian markets are likely to start the new week in green on supportive global cues.

Markets may remain volatile due to global developments and derivatives expiry for the month of September. The market trend will be determined by global cues till debt crisis in US and euro zone is resolved. The depreciating rupee has also added to investor woes. The overall mood remains cautious.

The Asian stock markets were mostly lower on Monday amid persistent worries about the global growth outlook and the euro-zone debt crisis. SGX Nifty was trading 7 points higher.
