However, investors in the market also made fierce profits. On this day, the Nifty had a rise of only 12 points.
The tension between India and Pakistan after the Pahalgam terrorist attack due to better results of companies that came out last week could not affect the positive perception of the market. Because of this, the start of the week was positive. The speed of growth in Indian manufacturing sector improved in April and increased the fastest production since June 2024. In April, the GST collection also jumped 12.6 percent to an all -time high of about 2.37 lakh crore rupees. Despite the positive news on the economy front, investors in the market remained vigilant throughout the week.
However, April has been fine for Indian stock markets. Relief from Trump Tariff not only gave investors new expectations but also gave them a chance to return fast. However, due to the possibility of war between India and Pakistan, there is a new problem in front of investors in May.
What do experts say: Stock market expert Yogesh Bagaura Said that the possibility of war in India and Pakistan is increasing. In this situation, investors need to be particularly cautious in May. If the situation of war is created, then no technical or fundamental factor will work.
He said that before the war begins or in the early stages of war, the market makes its low. As the war progresses, the market starts recovering. Along with the 1971 war, a similar pattern was seen at the time of Kargil War. The same pattern appeared during Israel Hamas War and Russia Ukraine War.
Bagaura advised investors that this month was cautious. Wait until the possibility of war is averted or until it is over. The market can be invested in the market from June. Wait for the bottom for investment. If you want to remain in the market even in tough time, then walk the portfolio.
