Why the decline?

Experts say India's share market is facing pressure due to various reasons, from continuous foreign investment outflow from Indian markets to the rupee's declining value against the dollar. The rupee's value dropped again on Monday. The rupee's rate per dollar fell below 90 on Monday. According to a Mint report, Yatin Trivedi, VP of Research Analysis in the Commodity and Currency division at LKP Securities, believes the rupee's value is declining due to delays in the India-US trade agreement and continuous foreign investment withdrawal. Along with this, gold and silver prices are rising correspondingly.

According to Vinod Nair, Research Head at Geojit Investment, the market will now remain in a narrow range due to the rupee's weakness and foreign investment outflow. He believes the market won't achieve stability in the true sense unless there's a clear understanding of the India-US trade agreement's position. He thinks the global economy and share market will also depend on inflation data, unemployment data, and interest rates in America.

Which stocks can be watched for Tuesday?

Several stocks can be watched for Tuesday's market as well. According to Mint's report, Sumeet Bagadia from Choice Broking, Ganesh Dongre from Anand Rathi, and Shiju Koothupalakkal from Prabhudas Lilladher have suggested several stocks for intra-day trading.
