According to experts, the market movement will largely depend on the attitude of foreign investors. If foreign investors continue to sell, the market may fall again. On the contrary, if foreign investors are inclined towards buying, then stability and boom can be seen in the market.Last week's huge declineLast week proved to be very challenging for the Indian stock market. The BSE Sensex of 30 stocks closed down by 4,091.53 points (4.98%). Similarly, the Nifty closed with a decline of 1,180.8 points (4.76%). Due to this decline, the market valuation of the top 10 companies of the Sensex decreased by Rs 4,95,061 crore. TCS and Reliance Industries suffered the most from this slowdown.What was the reason for the decline?The main reason for the decline in the market last week was the policy announcement of the US Federal Reserve. The Fed indicated interest rate cuts only twice in 2025, creating negative sentiment in global markets. This announcement also had an impact on the Indian markets and investors sold off on a large scale.Advice for investorsIn view of the volatility in the market, experts are advising investors to be cautious. In such times, investing for the long term and selecting shares of companies with strong fundamentals would be a wise move.ConclusionToday's rise has given a positive signal in the market, but investors should not forget that the volatility in the market is not over yet. It will be important to keep an eye on both foreign and domestic factors. This time can be beneficial for investors who invest with the right strategy and caution.
