Investors become poorer by Rs 7.46 trn in morning trade as markets crash

Investors' wealth tumbled by Rs 7.46 lakh crore in morning trade on Friday, in-tandem with a sharp decline in the domestic equity market, with the benchmark Sensex plunging over 1,000 points following a bearish trend in global equities. Fresh tariff threats that ignited global trade war fears and relentless foreign fund outflows dented investor sentiment. The 30-share BSE benchmark gauge tumbled 1,032.99 points or 1.38 per cent to 73,579.44 during morning trade. Following the sharp decline in equities, the market capitalisation of BSE-listed firms eroded by Rs 7,46,647.62 crore to Rs 3,85,63,562.91 crore (USD 4.42 trillion) in morning trade. From the Sensex pack, Tech Mahindra, IndusInd Bank, Maruti, HCL Tech, Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, Mahindra & Mahindra and Titan were the biggest laggards. Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries and Adani Ports were the gainers from the pack. In Asian markets, Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Hong Kong were trading with deep cuts. "The

Investors bet on Musk, Tesla to make fortune under Trump as threats mount

For Elon Musk fans, it's the half a trillion-dollar bet. That is how much the stock market value of Tesla has rocketed since the presidential election, a vertiginous climb uninterrupted in recent days despite a disappointing financial report that would have sunk the stock of nearly any other company. Investors are wagering that President Donald Trump will help Musk's company more than hurt it with his plans to take an axe to reams of Washington regulations and wield tariffs to get his way with key trading partners. Less regulation? Fantastic. Trade war? No biggie. It's going to be a golden age for Tesla and Musk, said Wedbush Securities financial analyst Dan Ives, adding after an investor conference call Wednesday, This is the most bullish I've ever heard Musk. Investing in Tesla has long been a gamble. Odds were against Musk creating a successful electric car company, never mind growing it to become the world's most valuable automaker and in the process making himself the world'
