What expert said on stock market movement
VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said that investors are adopting a cautious approach as they await US-India trade deal. He also said that FIIs selling have also impacted the markets.
"There are more headwinds than tailwinds for the market now. The major issue weighing on markets is that the expected trade deal between India and the US has not happened so far and the probability of a deal before the August 1 deadline is becoming lower. Sustained FII selling is impacting the market despite the DIIs (Domestic Institutional Investors) buying," VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said.
