Share Market News: The decline in the Indian stock market is not stopping. Investors have suffered huge losses in the last one and a half months, in which about Rs 48 lakh crore has been lost. Meanwhile, foreign investors have withdrawn Rs 1 lakh crore from the market, making the market situation more fragile. Experts believe that this decline may continue for the time being, so investors need to be cautious.

Gift Nifty signals and weak start

Early market signals remained weak on Monday. Gift Nifty, which indicates the early trends of the Indian markets, was trading at the level of 23,500, about 100 points lower than the previous close.

The decline continued on Thursday after the market was closed on Friday due to Guru Nanak Jayanti.

Sensex: Closed at 77,580.31, down 110.64 points.

Nifty 50: Closed at 23,532.70, down 26.35 points. Market below 200DMA and risk signals

According to Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Specialist, HDFC Securities, Nifty50 is now below the crucial 200DMA at 23,540. This indicates that there is little possibility of a boom in the market. However, a reduction in the momentum of decline can be a sign of relief.

Analysis of DMA (Daily Moving Average) and other technical indicators shows that the market needs to show solid evidence before any positive change.

Advice for investors

Investors should be cautious in this downtrend. Experts suggest that it is important to focus on capital protection at this time.

Diversification is important:

Distribute your funds across different assets (gold, mutual funds, bonds).

Avoid overinvestment in a single sector or stock.

Long term view:

Use the downtrend in the market for long term investment.

Invest in small portions on dips.

Gold and mutual fund considerations:

Gold is considered a safe investment option.

Invest in mutual funds through SIP (Systematic Investment Plan).

Avoid short-term trading:

The possibility of losses in short-term trading is high due to market volatility.

Be patient and focus on long-term returns.

What's next?

According to experts, there is still a possibility of further decline in the market. Global indicators are weak, and the selling pressure of foreign investors is affecting the market. However, this situation will not last long. Investors can get good returns when the market stabilizes.

Conclusion

The current decline in the Indian stock market has taught investors to be cautious. This is the time for safe and strategic investment instead of expecting aggressive profits. If investors invest with patience with a long-term perspective and manage their portfolio correctly, then this period of decline can be turned into an opportunity.
