Weekly Portfolio Performance Chart
Equity Markets:
Indian equity markets had a rough week, with the Nifty 50 closing at 25,048.65, erasing nearly ₹14 lakh crore in investor wealth over consecutive losing sessions. The week started with a sharp 1.3% drop on Monday driven by weak global cues and broad-based selling, and the slide continued through Thursday with the Sensex shedding over 1,660 points across the last three sessions. On Friday, Nifty slipped 241 points (0.95%), weighed by losses in Adani Ports (-7%), Eternal (-6%), and banking/realty names. India VIX spiked over 7%, reflecting heightened volatility and risk-off sentiment. Midcap and Smallcap indices also declined.
Key Market Triggers
Global uncertainty & weak cues: Asian markets traded mostly in the red, with Japan's Nikkei and Hong Kong's Hang Seng closing lower, dragging Indian benchmarks down.
Trump tariff threats: Concerns over potential 10–25% US tariffs on Indian exports and broader trade tensions kept risk appetite subdued.
Sustained FII selling: Foreign institutional investors continued heavy outflows, pressuring large-cap and banking stocks throughout the week.
Mixed Q3 earnings: Uneven corporate earnings added to volatility; while some IT and PSU banks beat estimates, other sectors disappointed, triggering selective selling.
Pre-Budget caution: Investors remained cautious ahead of the Union Budget 2026 (early February), limiting fresh buying interest.
