The Indian stock market experienced a slight decline, with the Nifty 50 and Sensex both dropping marginally. This movement is attributed to global macroeconomic tensions, including the recent surge in US 30-year Treasury yields, which could lead to foreign institutional investor outflows from India. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have led to rising crude oil prices, increasing concerns over inflation and impacting energy and banking stocks. Domestic institutional investors attempted to counterbalance these effects with significant purchases.
