The Indian markets have had a mixed week. The Nifty 50 continued its record-breaking run, achieving a new high for the 11th consecutive week, much to the delight of bullish investors. However, the market took an unexpected turn on Friday, as major indices witnessed profit booking, catching the bulls off guard. Sectors such as realty, auto, and metals led the decline, pulling the market down.
On the flip side, precious metals like gold and silver had a stellar week, each surging by over 3% after experiencing a steep decline during the budget week. As the volatile month of July came to an end, defensive sectors like IT, Pharma, and FMCG remained in focus, providing some stability amid the market uncertainty.
The Nifty 50 ended the week 0.47% lower at 24,718. Nifty Energy and Nifty Pharma surged the most with gains of 2.53%, and 1.39% respectively.
