However, recovery in select heavyweights trimmed the losses and both NSE Nifty50 and BSE Sensex settled around 18,385 and 61,702 levels, respectively. The broader indices traded in tandem and shed nearly half a percent each.

Here is a list of things to watch out for on 21 December 2022

What should investors do?

Weak global cues have been weighing on sentiment however buying in select index majors is capping the damage so far. We feel the performance of the global markets will continue to dictate the trend, in absence of any major event.

Meanwhile, traders should limit positions and prefer a hedged approach until we see some stability.
