Nifty nears longest losing streak in 25 years. Can bulls stop the 8th consecutive weekly selloff?
Indian markets moved lower in a quarterly results development.
30 Sept 2026 · ET Stocks, Economic Times Markets
Indian equities face continued pressure from global uncertainty, crude prices and foreign investor outflows, but analysts see domestic resilience and moderating valuations providing support. The Nifty has become relatively cheaper after its recent correction, with earnings still growing.
The analysis
Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
- The immediate tone of coverage reads negative.
