Sensex down 74 points amid mixed Asian cues

Domestic markets fell over 0.4 per cent in the opening session on Friday on sustained selling by FIIs amid mixed Asian cues.

At 9.15 a.m., the 30-share BSE index Sensex was down 74.31 points (0.4 per cent) at 18,326.73 and the 50-share NSE index was down 40.1 points (0.74 per cent) at 5,368.95.

Asian shares were trading mixed and oil prices fell as fears eased of an imminent Western military strike against Syria.

Dollar remained steady around a three-week high against a basket of currencies after upbeat US growth data.
