Themes This Week

- Continued Headwinds for Metals & Realty: Both the Metal and Real Estate sectors are exhibiting pronounced weakness and are likely to face further selling pressure in the near term.
- Financial Services Under Pressure: The Financial Services sector, including NBFCs, is experiencing broad-based selling, reflecting profit-taking and FII outflows.
- DII Support Countering FII Selling: Domestic Institutional Investors are actively buying the dips, providing some support to the market, but Foreign Institutional Investor outflows remain a significant drag on overall sentiment.
