Nifty slipped sharply lower as it broke down from consolidation on the daily chart suggesting a rise in the bearish bet in the market. The momentum oscillator RSI is in bearish crossover and falling towards the oversold zone.

MARKET COMMENT: Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services

Powell’s hawkish tone during the Jackson Hole symposium pointed towards a stricter rate hike while investors were expecting a milder policy action post the release of the softer July inflation reading. This has increased concern about an economic slowdown, which has caused a significant sell-off in the US market and spillover effects on markets around the world. The sell-off in emerging markets like India was exacerbated by concerns over the possible withdrawal of foreign funds, which was the backbone of the recent market rally.
