Forget KOSPI, Nikkei, Nasdaq, even Pakistan's KSE surged over 100% in 2 years, leaving India's Nifty, Sensex far behind

AI Summary

The persistent decline of the Nifty 50 and Sensex, coupled with the strong performance of global indices, highlights a troubling trend for Indian retail investors. The depreciation of the Indian Rupee has not only affected foreign investment but also raises concerns about the overall attractiveness of the Indian market compared to its peers. Investors should closely monitor currency fluctuations and consider diversifying their portfolios to include sectors or markets that are performing better, such as the banking sector, which has shown resilience amidst the broader market downturn.

Global markets today: When the Indian stock market opened on Monday, the poor show of the key benchmark indices continued. After ending lower for the seventh straight week last Friday, the Nifty 50 index opened lower at 23,064 and touched an intraday low of 22,807 within a few minutes of the Opening Bell. The BSE Sensex also opened downside at 73,734 and touched an intraday low of 72,832 within a few minutes of the Indian stock market's opening.

While making this intraday low, the Nifty 50 index corrected from 26,179 to 22,807 over two years, losing 3,372 points, or 12.88%, in the process.
