  1. Why is the Share Market Down Today? Stock Market Crash On October 3, 2024, the Indian stock market witnessed a significant downturn, with the Nifty 50 down over 2% amid the Iran-Israel Conflict out to over 10 lakh crores in market value. By 11:02 am, the Nifty 50 had dropped 297.50 points, while the Sensex fell by 958.55 points. Reasons for the Market Crash: 1.  Iran-Israel Conflict: Tensions surged in the Middle East after Iran launched 200 missiles at Israel following the assassination of Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Both nations are bracing for further retaliation, escalating fears of prolonged conflict, which has impacted global markets. 2.  SEBI’s F&O Rules: New derivatives regulations, set to take e?ect soon, are expected to reduce trading volumes by up to 30%, a?ecting investor sentiment. 3.  Rising Crude Oil Prices: As fears grow of further unrest in the Middle East, crude oil prices spiked. This is particularly detrimental to India, a major oil importer. 4.  FII Selling and Chinese Market Rally: Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) withdrew over ₹5,500 crore from Indian markets, partially due to a rally in the Chinese stock market, driven by government stimulus.

  2. Impact on Retail Investors: These developments are likely to reduce speculative trading and high-frequency options trading, particularly a?ecting smaller retail players. Despite the geopolitical tensions, analysts suggest the Indian stock market may experience only short-term volatility. Conclusion: The stock market crash is driven by a combination of the Iran-Israel conflict, new SEBI regulations, FII selling, and the rise in crude oil prices.
