Here are experts views on the stock markets today:

Dr VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, says, "The market has turned excessively volatile responding to fast changing incoming data. DIIs have been consistent buyers on the back of good flows to domestic mutual funds. But FIIs have been consistently selling in the cash market this month with a net sell figure of Rs 7,850 crores. The FII selling has been triggered by the rising US bond yields and the strengthening dollar. With the yield from the US 10-year at 4.29% and 2-year at 5%, the FIIs are likely to sell further impacting market sentiments."

Vaishali Parekh, Vice President - Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, shares technical view on Nifty today, "Nifty witnessing some volatility during the intraday session maintained the 19500 zone strong near-term support zone and recovered strongly in the second half to close above of 19600 levels further improving the bias and sentiment."

Sensex and Nifty remain in the green with marginal gains of 0.01 and 0.02 per cent respectively. At 12:04, Sensex was at 65,890 and Nifty touched 19,614.
