Indian Markets Hold Ground Amid Global Turbulence

Indian Markets Hold Ground Amid Global Turbulence

On May 22, 2025, Indian stock markets showed remarkable strength and relative stability, especially when compared to the steep fall witnessed in U.S. markets. While both markets saw declines, the extent of the fall was much milder in India—highlighting the resilience and outperformance of domestic equities.

The Nifty 50 ended the day with a loss of 0.92%, closing , while the Sensex fell by 0.9% . In contrast, U.S. markets recorded their worst single-day fall in over a month, with the Dow Jones plunging 816 points (-1.91%), the S&P 500 dropping 1.61%, and the Nasdaq shedding 1.41%.

This underperformance by the U.S. was driven by panic over a massive $3.8 trillion tax and spending bill, which raised concerns about national debt levels and sent Treasury yields to 18-month highs. The rising yields made investors jittery, pushing them to book profits in equities.

Indian markets too felt the ripple effects but held up relatively better, with only moderate selling pressure. While IT and FMCG sectors saw some weakness, particularly with Colgate falling over 5% due to soft earnings, Indian investors displayed more confidence overall.

Stay selective with stocks especially with result impact. for example ASTRAL today. look for Bharti for breakout.
