Future direction of the market… Friends, global trends, geopolitical tensions and corporate results of companies as well as elections will keep an eye on Indian markets in the coming week. Samvat 2080 stocks are departing with a major correction in the last one month after a historic rally. Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) stocks have witnessed a major erosion in the correction resulting in massive net selling of Rs 1,00,256 crore so far in October after record returns to investors in many stocks. Investors' wealth has been eroded by Rs 34.37 lakh crore in 25 days. .
The buying of local funds against the selling of foreign funds was not enough to prevent the market from falling. Diwali cited a dip in stock prices over the weekend amid renewed tensions in the Middle East and weak corporate results at frontline companies, amid concerns over asset quality at banks, citing Diwali. 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. Redemption pressure on local funds may come in the coming days in the event of flare-up in crude oil along with geopolitical tension and incessant selling of foreign funds.
