(fxcue news) - Indian shares fluctuated before ending little changed on Tuesday as signs of escalating Middle East tensions offset expectations for more U.S. rate cuts and China's stimulus announcements.
Oil prices jumped more than 2 percent in European trade after Israel launched its biggest aerial offensive against Iran-backed Shite militant group Hezbollah.
Israel's military said today it struck dozens of Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon overnight, a day after launching a wave of airstrikes against the Iran-backed group's sites in Lebanon's deadliest day in decades.
Hezbollah said it had attacked several Israeli military targets, including an explosives factory 60 km (37 miles) into Israel, with the Fadi series of rockets.
The significant escalation of the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah conflict offset last week's big interest-rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve and a raft of stimulus measures unveiled by China's central bank to boost growth.
The benchmark 30-share BSE Sensex fluctuated before ending the session down 14.57 points at 84,914.04 while the broader NSE Nifty index ended little changed with a positive bias at 25,940.40.
Metal stocks surged, with Hindalco and Tata Steel rallying more than 4 percent supported by China's stimulus measures.
Adani Enterprises, Tech Mahindra and Power Grid Corp climbed 2-3 percent while UltraTech Cement, Grasim, Hindustan Unilever and SI Life dropped 2-3 percent.
