Benchmark indices BSE Sensex and NSE’s Nifty 50 trade little changed on Monday following losses in global equity markets. 

Among sectoral indices, the Nifty PSU Bank index was trading nearly 1% higher led by a rise in the shares of State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank and Bank of Baroda.

The Street has been volatile in the last couple of weeks with US and China turning the heat on the possibility of a trade war. 

The US's hike on import tariffs on steel and aluminium resulted in major metal stocks like Tata Steel bleeding heavily. 

On Monday however, the Nifty Metal sub-index was trading 0.30 per cent in the green at 9.25 am. State-run banks, the other volatile sector too was holding up.
