Street at 7-month low as Trump rattles investors

|January 22, 2025
FII selling in Jan hits ₹52,317 crore; more pressure likely as liquidity stays tight
MUMBAI: Donald Trump's saber-rattling before and after his swearing-in sent Indian markets scurrying for cover on Tuesday, with benchmarks Nifty 50 and S&P BSE Sensex tumbling to their respective seven-month lows, leaving investors poorer by ₹7.5 lakh crore.
Investors were already in a somber mood, thanks to sluggish corporate earnings, foreign investor sell-offs, and pre-budget jitters. The uncertainty sparked by the new US president's assertions and executive actions on his day one in office only added fuel to the fire.
The Nifty 50 fell 1.4% to close at 23,024.65, while the Sensex slumped 1.6%, ending the day at 75,838.36. Further, all sectoral indices closed in the red on Tuesday, with Nifty Realty and Consumer Durables taking the biggest hits, falling by more than 4% each.
