Listen to this article in summarized format
Federal Reserve officials left interest rates unchanged and reiterated their commitment to containing inflation, but without offering a clear signal they might raise rates at their next meeting in December.
STATE OF THE MARKETS
GIFT Nifty (Earlier SGX Nifty) signals a positive start
GIFT Nifty on the NSE IX traded higher by 59 points, or 0.26 per cent, at 22,792, signaling that Dalal Street was headed for a positive start on Thursday.
Tech View: A decisive breakout beyond these levels will trigger the next trending move. With elevated crude oil, US 10-year yields topping 5%, and India VIX above 15, traders should maintain caution and strictly align strategies with the prevailing broader trend.
India VIX: India VIX, which is a measure of the fear in the markets, fell 0.1% to settle at 16.24 levels.
Asian shares edge higher
Nasdaq 100 Index futures dropped 0.9% and contracts for the S&P; 500 slipped 0.4% as Samsung Electronics third-quarter earnings missed estimates.

US stocks end higher
US stocks ended higher on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady, as expected, while investors assessed the central bank's economic outlook and looked ahead to quarterly results from Microsoft and Alphabet, Reuters reported.
