Sensex Drops Over 2,700 Points, Nifty Below 9,700 In Biggest Crash Ever
Domestic stock markets suffered their biggest fall ever in absolute terms on Thursday with the S&P BSE Sensex index plunging as much as 2,707.39 points to 32,990.01, and the broader NSE Nifty benchmark losing 809.75 points to 9,648.65. Only hours ago, the 50-scrip index had cracked below the 10,000 for the first time in two years. Those losses followed a selloff in global markets after the US announced a temporary travel ban from Europe in order to fight the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
