Asian stocks advanced on Wednesday, mirroring Wall Streets overnight gains, as markets monitored the results of a highly contested U.S. presidential election. Investors also focused on potential additional stimulus measures from China.

On Tuesday, U.S. stock indexes surged, recovering from recent losses due to gains in technology stocks. Speculation over an upcoming rate cut by the Federal Reserve further boosted risk appetite.

Attention this week remains on the Federal Reserve meeting, where the central bank is expected to reduce interest rates by 25 basis points.

Domestic Market:

The domestic equity benchmarks ended Tuesday's trading session with significant gains, primarily driven fag-end buying in metal, banking, and financial stocks. The Nifty 50 index closed above the 24,200 level, recovering from an intraday low of 23,842.75. This uptick was fueled by optimism regarding a potential consumption revival in the second half of the fiscal year and anticipation of a substantial stimulus package from China later this week. The S&P BSE Sensex rallied 694.39 points or 0.88% to 79,476.63. The Nifty 50 index advanced 217.95 points or 0.91% to 24,213.30.
