Sensex down 1,600 points in 3 days; Rs 4 lakh crore loss. 7 factors behind the selloff
The Sensex, India's headline equity index, has experienced a sharp decline, losing over 1,600 points in just three days. This has resulted in investors losing approximately Rs 4 lakh crore. The market capitalization of all companies listed on the BSE has also fallen to Rs 319.5 lakh crore. The decline in the market is attributed to factors such as the US Federal Reserve's decision to project an interest rate hike, rising bond yields, a stronger dollar, higher crude oil prices, expensive valuations, foreign institutional investor selloff, and technical factors.
