Markets plunged sharply on Wednesday and lost over half a percent amid weak global cues and rising geopolitical tensions. From a technical perspective, the sharp decline has pushed the Nifty closer around the 23,800 level, and analysts say a decisive break below this could extend the correction towards the 23,600 mark.
