The domestic equations are not looking good at the moment. Binod Modi, Head – Strategy, Reliance Securities, said the recent nightly announcements made by various state governments and the sign of lockdown by Maharashtra officials did not augur well for equities.
He further said that the strong dollar index, which had already risen 1.5% last week and crossed the 93 level so far this week, may raise investor concern in emerging markets including India.
Mr Modi said that US equity plummeted due to rising bond yields and concerns over high inflation, again affecting investor sentiment.
