Fed hike tests domestic muscle. Can markets hold the line?
· LiveMint Markets
DIIs bought in all 10 previous Fed rate-hike months marked by foreign selling, yet Nifty fell in seven. September puts that support to the test again.
The analysis
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.
