Stock Market Crash in Numbers

BSE Sensex and Nifty50 have experienced a significant downturn, marking their steepest single-day fall in 10 months. This decline is attributed to global recession fears stoked by US President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs. Despite the turmoil, experts suggest that India's impact may be lesser compared to other major economies.

Indian markets performed comparatively better than other Asian markets due to reduced tariffs and less dependence on American exports.

Short-Term Market Outlook

Market volatility is expected to persist over the next two quarters as uncertainties surrounding tariffs gradually diminish. Key levels to watch include a daily close above 22,000 for Nifty to set a positive tone for upcoming sessions.

Long-Term Investment Perspective

Despite short-term volatility, the long-term outlook for India's stock market remains positive. Factors such as attractive valuations, robust domestic institutional flows, and a favorable monsoon forecast support this optimistic view.
