Bazaar shocked with trump threats
Vijaykumar, Chief Investment Strategist VK Vijaykumar, Chief Investment Strategist of Geojit Investments Limited, said, “President Trump’s new tweet that” I will increase India’s tariff on the purchase of oil from Russia “is a big threat”. If he remains adamant on his point, then there will be more tension in Indo-US relations and it can have a bad effect on India’s exports to America than ever before. It will also affect India’s GDP growth and corporate income in FY 26. At present, it cannot be underestimated on the market trading on high valuation. ”
Vijaykumar further said, “If the US tariff is further increased on India, then the market will give a negative response and will go below the Nifty’s 24500 support level. Investors are waiting for further developments. Some money can also be considered to be put in fixed income.”
