Future direction of the market… Friends, after the strong start of Samvat 2081 in Muhurta trading, the erosion of the stocks has been seen as a result of one-day selling by Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs). On the day of the announcement of Donald Trump's victory as the new President of the United States, Indian stock markets along with the global markets saw a boom. But the frenzy of bullishness quickly subsided on the second day as expected policies including unexpected tariff hike by the Trump government and the China factor led to a sell-off in the market. Sensex, Nifty showed limited declines and funds continued to offload into small, mid-cap stocks and continue to take profits on every bounce. It is now necessary to be defensive and selective in stocks. Care must be taken in the market until the incessant sell-off of foreign funds stops. With geopolitical tension, the pressure of redemption on the local funds may come in the coming days in the circumstances of crude oil flare-up and continuous selling of foreign funds, in this situation, the month of November can be a disaster, so it is advisable to book stocks which are getting good profits. Local institutional investors i.e. local funds-mutual funds may also slow down in the coming days. So it is advisable to stay away from new purchases or averaging in the coming days. After the slight upswing seen in the stock market last week, investors are now looking at the coming days. The performance of the stock market may be full of ups and downs in the coming days.
