Weekly Portfolio Performance Chart


We've witnessed tremendous selling from FII, and the India VIX is currently trading at about 18, up nearly 80% in just a few sessions. As the 2024 general election draws to a close, we are witnessing a rise in volatility. This week, the Midcap Index and Small Cap Index are down 2.75 percent and 5%, respectively. The Fed has kept the policy rate unchanged, but the rate of balance sheet reduction has decreased from $60 billion to $25 billion. By taking this action, the higher policy rate is offset and system liquidity is enhanced. The US inflation increased to 3.5% in March from 3.2% in February, which is above the expectation. Due to higher inflation and not so encouraging inflation outlook global markets are cautioned. India's Q3 2023 GDP growth rate of 8.4% exceeds the consensus forecast of 6.6%. India's CPI inflation rate cooled to 4.85% in March from 5.09% in February. In its April 2024 policy meeting, the RBI held the repo rate unchanged at 6.5%.
