Stock Market LIVE Updates: Market expert view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The domestic market experienced a range-bound trading session in anticipation of key economic data releases this week, alongside the monthly expiry. Concerns over high valuations led to continued declines in small and mid-cap stocks. Market sentiment is expected to remain cautious in the near term due to persistent pressure on the Rupee, ongoing FII outflows, and tariff-related developments. Key macroeconomic indicators, including the US Core PCE and GDP data for both the US and India, will be instrumental in shaping expectations for the central bank's future monetary policy.
