stock market under pressure

Oil prices have reached a 23-month high due to supply concerns amid rising tensions in the Middle East. There is also fear regarding inflation. These concerns reversed all the previous day’s gains in the market on March 6. Due to this, the benchmark indices remained under pressure throughout the session.

This is also a challenge for the stock market

Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments, said, “Continued rise in oil prices could impact investor sentiment and adversely impact India’s twin deficits, inflation trajectory and RBI’s monetary stance. He said the rise in US 10-year bond yields and a strong dollar have prompted FIIs to adopt a risk-averse approach to domestic equities.

In fact, when bond yields increase in America, foreign investors start getting better returns there without any risk. In such a situation, they consider it better to withdraw money from risky assets like the Indian stock market and invest it in American bond yields. This is the reason why the rise in US 10-year bond yield and strong dollar index has always been challenging for emerging markets like India.
