At 10:20 AM, the Bombay Stock Exchange bellwether Sensex was at 28020.18 down by 56.82 points or by 0.2 per cent, while the NSE Nifty was at 8646 points, trading lower by 20.9 points or by 0.24 per cent.

US stocks registered small losses in the previous trading session with traders holding their horses ahead of a speech from Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen at Jackson Hole this week.
