- •Market capitalization of BSE-listed companies decreased by over 20 lakh crore rupees in 2026, indicating a major loss for investors.

- •The Indian Rupee weakened by 6 paise against the dollar, closing at 90.97, despite RBI intervention, due to weak dollar inflows and trade tensions.
- •Experts Nandish Shah and Rupak De confirm a bearish trend, with Nifty potentially sliding to 24,800-24,900 if it breaks below the 200-day moving average.
