Trade Tensions Trigger Market Dip: Nifty Ends Week Lower

Indian equities faced pressure this week as external developments weighed on investor sentiment. A key trigger was former U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 25% tariff on Indian exports, which raised concerns across export-oriented sectors such as pharmaceuticals, textiles, auto components, and engineering goods.

Global central banks maintained their current policy stance. The FOMC which held this week kept interest rates unchanged, as did the Bank of Japan, contributing to a cautious global risk environment.

As a result, the Nifty 50 declined 1.09% over the week. Defensive buying supported the Nifty FMCG index, which rose 2.96%, while Nifty Realty underperformed, falling 5.73% amid risk-off sentiment. Even precious metals reflected market caution, with gold flat and silver dropping over 3% for the week.

Scroll down to understand more of such market news and perspectives for the week gone by in easily understandable charts.
