Sensex weekly expiry
Ajit Mishra, Senior Vice President (Research) of Reliable Broking, said that there are still many derivatives behind this instability. The weekly contracts of the sensex will be concluded on 21 January. He said that there is no significant reason for tramp on which the market is reacting.
Continuous FII selling
Moving forward, huge sales of FII can be seen in the Indian markets. In January alone, FII sold shares worth Rs 50,912.60 crore. FII was selling pure goods in 6 out of 7 business days.
Uncertainty over Trump 2.0
Vijay Kumar, the chief investment strategist of Geojit Financial Service, said Tramp 2.0 has started with limited information about possible economic decisions. During his inaugural speech, he was clear about the accommodation but seemed uncertain about tariffs. The suggestion of a possible 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico indicates that the tariff hike policy will be implemented gradually, Vijay Kumar said. Apart from this, European markets opened up a bit after handling the tramp incident on Monday.
