Weekly Portfolio Performance Chart
Equity Markets:
The Indian stock market endured a challenging week, snapping a two-week winning streak and recording its worst weekly performance in over three months. Both benchmark indices declined significantly amid escalating geopolitical tensions, foreign investor outflows, and trade uncertainty centered on potential US tariffs.
Key Market Triggers
Trade Tensions and Tariff Concerns: The primary catalyst for the sharp decline was heightened uncertainty about US-India trade relations. Reports of potential US tariffs on Indian goods—particularly threatening a 500% tariff on countries buying Russian oil—created significant risk aversion among investors.
Technical Breakdown: The Nifty 50 broke below critical support levels, falling below its 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) for the first time in three months. The index also breached the 26,000 psychological level, triggering additional selling pressure.
Foreign Institutional Investor (FIIs) Selling: Consistent foreign investor outflows pressured equities throughout the week.
Rupee Depreciation and Currency Weakness : The rupee breached the 90 per dollar mark for the first time, becoming Asia's worst-performing currency with approximately 5% depreciation in 2025 and a further decline in early 2026. The rupee also depreciated over 19% against the euro and 14% against the British pound.
