Stock Market Highlights LIVE Updates: India market weakened under global pressure, premium valuations

Global markets turned topsy turvy under the threat of rising geopolitical risk in the Middle-East and plausible increase in Yen interest rate which can reduce cross country investments in equity.

On the contrary, the Chinese market had a resurgence due to a large stimulus package and cheap valuation. India also weakened under the global pressure and premium valuation while metals are expected to outperform in the near-term.

Going ahead the domestic focus will be on the upcoming Q2 results where earnings growth is expected to revert after the dull Q1.
