Indian indices

It is the European disease that is infecting markets all around the world at the moment. Adding to the gloom are worries that the United States may be sliding back into recession, a concern heightened by a slew of downbeat data, most recently employment figures that showed the world's top economy failed to create any jobs last month. Today, the Indian markets will have to depend on the Asian indices for direction as US markets were closed on Monday. The opening is expected to be in the red zone mirroring weakness in the Asian region.

There are no major triggers back home so the Indian markets will be more dependent on global indicators for cues.
