0

Sensex suffered its worst week since June 2022, falling 4.5% due to escalating West Asia tensions and heavy foreign investor sell-offs. The market lost Rs 16.3 lakh crore in capitalization. Rising crude oil prices intensified fears of inflation, potentially delaying any rate cuts by RBI. Only the metals sector, led by JSW Steel, saw gains.
