Indian markets moved lower.
· Business Standard Mkts
IT stocks gained ₹77,000 crore in market value, cushioning the Nifty's 0.34% decline on Wednesday, while banking and financial stocks lost around ₹81,000 crore amid rising bond yields.
The analysis
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
