Will Nifty break 8,000 levels in today's trade?

Investors remain cautious on continuous fund outflows on reports stating that MSCI may include China A shares in its emerging markets index

Markets are likely to open lower as investors remain cautious on continuous fund outflows on reports stating that MSCI may include China A shares in its emerging markets index after resolving certain issues. A rebound in the crude prices has further hurt the sentiments.

Meanwhile, US stocks edged lower on fears of interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve sooner rather than later in view of upbeat economic data. Following the tandem, Asian shares barring Shanghai Composite made a tentative rebound from three-month lows on Wednesday though the specter of higher borrowing costs in the United States and concerns about the apparent lack of progress in talks between Greece and its creditors sapped confidence.
