Monday\u2019s market surge brought a flurry of positive sentiments. However, Tuesday couldn\u2019t see the same wave, and the market ended flatish, with NIFTY<\/a> closing at 25,017.80 and SENSEX<\/a> at 81,711.76. This came after both closed green on Monday when the increase was due to hints of a potential rate cut in Jerome Powell\u2019s speech.
