The domestic equity benchmarks ended with steep losses on Friday

Banks, financial stocks, and real estate stocks all declined. However, IT stock prices defied the general trend. After recent sharp increases, profit-taking in local shares was sparked by unfavourable global indications. In the last eight trading sessions, the Nifty 50 index increased 3.31%. Investors were alarmed by the recent comeback of the US dollar index. Risk-off trading in developing market equities may occur because of a strong increase in the dollar. FPIs sold domestic stocks worth Rs 1706 crore in net sales on Thursday.
