Stock Market News: FIIs Leaving Indian Market Making Sensex and Nifty Slide Down For the 5th Session.
The share market today is on a decline for the 5th consecutive day amidst the US Fed indicating that the pace of rate cuts will be slower ahead with only two more rate cuts to be expected by the end of 2025, and the rate cut outlooked and disappointed the market sentiment worldwide including India.
The Foreign Institutional Investments have sold more than Rs 12000 crore of Indian stocks in the past few days because of the US dollar getting stronger and rising bond yields. The Indian rupee has been loosening its strength making it to Rs 85.34 per dollar on Friday. A weak currency discourages foreign investors from investing in the Indian markets as it reduces their gains when they convert them back to their home currencies. This also leads to the foreign capital outflow which further pressures the market. A weak Indian currency could also lead to higher inflation rates as imports of goods and raw materials have become expensive which is again negative for the market conditions.
