Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast bringing you all the important cues ahead of the trading session of March 18 Here’s a look at top cues to track today - A key question is if the Nifty will continue to hold on to the 22,000 level after the worst week in five months. Experts say that Nifty's momentum indicators suggest bearish momentum in the near-term.

The results of the stress test will be issued to all these French fund houses every 15 days after March 15. -Wall Street awaits guidance on monetary policy from the Federal Reserve this week.

Japan’s Nikkei 225 rose 2.1%, while the Topix climbed 1.6%. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index opened 0.27% lower, while the CSI 300 index was 0.17% higher. - China is set to release a slew of economic data, including its February retail sales, industrial output, and urban unemployment numbers. -Oil prices ticked up in early trade, firming up gains from last week when prices rose nearly 4% on the view that supply was tightening.
