What Do Experts Say?

“Domestic markets started on a weaker note as investors booked profits, staying cautious ahead of the US Federal Reserve’s policy decision. The weakness in the rupee, continued foreign fund outflows, and uncertainty around the US–India trade deal also dampened sentiment. IT stocks were the biggest drag, while PSU banks, realty and consumer durables saw buying interest, with small-cap stocks outperforming broader indices," Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Ltd said.

“Although markets are largely pricing in a 25-basis-point rate cut by the Fed and a possible rate hike by the Bank of Japan, the outlook and guidance for 2026 will be the key driver,” he added.

"Fresh worries over potential tariffs on Indian rice exports pressured agricultural stocks, while continued selling by foreign investors and the rupee slipping beyond the 90-per-dollar mark kept overall market sentiment under strain," said Ajit Mishra, SVP – Research, Religare Broking Ltd.
