Sensex Dips 500 Points: 9 Reasons Behind Today's Stock Market Crash

• The Indian stock market continued its downward trend on Tuesday, with Sensex falling 479 points and Nifty down 171.75 points.
• Key factors contributing to the decline include renewed trade war concerns, continuous selling by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), and mixed Q3 corporate results.
• Weak global cues, a rise in India VIX (market volatility index), and a depreciating rupee further pressured the market.
• Rising crude oil prices and anticipation of a US Supreme Court decision on Trump-era tariffs added to investor uncertainty.
• Nifty's weekly expiry on Tuesday also contributed to increased intra-day market volatility.
