US Bond Yields Rise, Triggering Foreign Investor Sell-off in Indian Stock Market

News18 Hindi · india

The Indian stock market is experiencing a significant decline, with share prices falling due to increased selling pressure. A primary reason cited by experts is the rising yield on US bonds, which is attracting foreign investors to pull their money out of Indian equities. While geopolitical uncertainties and rising crude oil prices also contribute, the shift of capital towards higher returns in US bonds is a major factor. This trend impacts not only investors but also the broader perception of the Indian economy's growth prospects.
