Reasons for Market Downturn

  • The escalating conflicts in the Middle East have heightened global uncertainty, prompting investors to seek safer assets while avoiding riskier ones.
  • Additionally, investors are taking profits after a strong market rally, leading to selling pressure. With many stocks reaching one-year highs, some investors are capitalizing on their gains.
  • There has also been significant selling by foreign investors, which may have contributed to increased market volatility and affected overall investor sentiment.
  • As the upcoming earnings season approaches, investors are hesitant to make new bets until they can assess the performance of major companies in the Q2 results, which could influence market direction.
