Indian Markets are trading range bound after trading nearly 120 points in the green.Stocks have come down from their earlier highs in the opening trade. Earlier in the US markets,With the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq up 2.9%, 4.1%, and 3.8%, respectively, one week after officially marking the long-awaited market correction, it wasn't surprising to see stocks take a breather Thursday.So much for the bulls trying to get buying momentum back on track as the market's knack for selling into strength erases an hour's worth of recovery efforts. One aspect of today's breather that's worth noting is the lack of conviction on the part of sellers' efforts to take some money off the table.The Asian Indices are also trading in the negative coupled with political uncertainty , it is no surprise that the markets are lacking direction.

The Indian markets are doing what we see often , a bout of panic selling making the small investor run away and than a quick bounceback to make fresh positions.The markets are still edgy and these gains don't look convincing.Earlier in the US markets ,the major averages finished in split fashion as investors juggled mixed perspectives about lingering credit concerns, M&A speculation, and plunging oil prices.Overall, though, such a relatively flat performance in the face of some news items that would have roiled stocks in recent weeks was an encouraging sign that suggests the market is stabilizing after the subprime fallout.
Stocks stumbled out of the gate as the bulk of buyers again flocked to Treasuries as the Fed saying it added more reserves via overnight repos left participants struggling to grasp the extensiveness of the credit turmoil. The yield on the 10-year note at its morning lows near 4.56% was more than 60 basis points higher than the 2-year yield. That is the widest spread since May 2005.Fortunately for the bulls, a steeper yield curve bodes well for the rate-sensitive Financial sector, Throw in a 2.3% drop in oil prices, which closed below the psychologically important $70/bbl mark for the first time since June, and the Energy sector was really the market's only casualty on what was finally a day of minimal volatility. which is the most heavily weighted of all 10 economic sectors. Asia is a mixed bag once again.Coming back to Indian markets , we think it needs some political assurance on the N-Deal and no negative global cues to stabilise.

The US Stock Markets rallied Friday after a surprise move by the Fed to cut its discount rate in an effort to ease fears about a liquidity crisis leading to a credit crunch.
Although the Fed left the fed funds rate unchanged, the decision to cut the discount rate, and the reasoning from the Fed for doing so, was seen by many as laying the groundwork for a cut in the fed funds rate sometime soon.
The S&P 500 vaulted back into positive territory for the year. After closing lower over the last six straight sessions, the Dow and Nasdaq snapped their losing streaks.
Although today's relief rally was significant and reduces downside risk, the major averages did not garner enough of a surge to finish with weekly gains.
With the growing realization that liquidity was not getting to where it was needed, despite several sizable Fed infusions into the banking system, the Fed unexpectedly and unanimously cut the discount rate by 50 basis points, to 5.75% from 6.25%. Policy makers said "market conditions have deteriorated" and "downside risks have increased appreciably" since the last FOMC meeting on August 7.
The Fed's actions and comments helped alleviate the worst of fears that liquidity problems will turn into a full-fledged credit crunch. Importantly, by using the discount rate as a policy tool at this point, it kept the Fed's credibility intact as the action doesn't appear inconsistent with recent policy statements dealing with the fed funds rate that emphasize concerns about inflation.
However, the Fed's comments did suggest a cut in the fed funds rate is possible.
