Indian stock market slips as global jitters hit Nifty and Sensex
The Indian stock market started Thursday on a downbeat note, with Nifty50 dipping below 25,800 and Sensex dropping around 150 points.
Investors are feeling cautious right now, thanks to short-term volatility and shaky sentiment.
Why does this matter?
Big foreign investors sold over ₹1,100 crore in shares yesterday—even though the Sensex is up 5.73% over the past year—while domestic funds tried to balance things out by buying.
Global trends are adding pressure too: US markets just had a rough day as AI stocks lost steam, which is making everyone a bit more risk-averse.
What's behind the moves?
Experts say rising short positions from foreign investors are keeping the mood negative.
Plus, with global markets sliding and safe-haven assets like precious metals being supported, it's clear that uncertainty is calling the shots for now.
