This week, Indian equities came under pressure, with the Nifty 50 index declining by 1.39% as escalating India-Pakistan tensions weighed on market sentiment. Despite the broader weakness, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) remained consistent net buyers throughout the week, offering some support to the downside.
The U.S. Federal Reserve concluded its policy meeting, leaving interest rates unchanged, aligning with market expectations. In sectoral trends, the Nifty Auto index emerged as the top performer, gaining 1.53%. Meanwhile, precious metals saw renewed investor interest, with gold prices surging above 3% as safe-haven demand rose amid geopolitical concerns.
Overall, the market closed on a bearish note, driven by macro-level risks, even as select companies posted encouraging Q4 results. Investors are now closely tracking further earnings reports and geopolitical developments for near-term direction.
