1h agoIndia’s listed banks flagged for stock-buying strategy by analyst
Indian stock-market analyst Sumeet Bagadia has recommended three stocks – namely Shriram Finance, Bharat Electronics and Canara Bank – for Monday following weakness in metal, power and private-bank segments. The broader Indian equity indices had slipped for the second consecutive day despite logging their best monthly performance in seven months, helped by foreign-institutional-investor buying and signs of a corporate-earnings recovery. Investors will watch whether these stock-specific calls outperform amid sector rotations and macro pressures.

1h agoOPEC+ poised for modest oil output increase amid oversupply fears
The OPEC+ producer group is preparing to approve a modest increase in oil production targets despite concerns of a looming supply glut and weak demand growth. The incremental output rise follows prior larger increases but signals caution as global energy markets face slow growth and excess inventory. Analysts say the move reflects a balancing act between member states wanting revenue and the need to support oil prices. Energy-market participants will closely watch inventory data and demand indicators for signals of strain.

Initial U.S. jobless claims dropped to a seasonally adjusted 219,000 for the week ending October 25, modestly below prior readings and market estimates. The data suggests the labour market retains underlying resilience even as other indicators cool. Economists caution that the series can be volatile week to week, and state-level data gaps required statistical adjustments. Investors said stronger-than-expected claims could temper immediate Fed easing expectations, but the overall labour picture still leaves room for policy discretion given mixed monthly payroll prints.

Policymakers signalled that further moves will be data-dependent and emphasised the need to balance inflation control with growth support. Markets interpreted the decision as a temporary pause in the easing cycle rather than the end of policy action. Investors will next monitor regional consumer-price prints and wage data for hints on the ECB’s next steps.

2h agoForeign portfolio investors return, pumping ₹14,610 crore into Indian equities
Data from the National Securities Depository show foreign portfolio investors turned net buyers in October, reversing a three-month selling streak by injecting about ₹14,610 crore into Indian equities. Market participants attribute the shift to positive macro prints, resilient corporate earnings and improved risk appetite. Analysts caution that flows can reverse with changing global yields, but note renewed foreign interest could support mid-cap liquidity and IPO pricing in the near term. Domestic retail SIP flows continue to underpin baseline demand.

India’s primary market momentum shows no sign of slowing: filings indicate a record pipeline with companies targeting sizeable public raises. Between October 2024 and late October 2025, firms collectively filed to raise in excess of previous annual levels, driven by strong retail participation and robust demand for listings. Bankers say the environment favours issuers with clear growth and profitability paths, even as some late-stage deals see price sensitivity. The rush could test aftermarket liquidity if too many large issues cluster in the same window.

Inflows into Indian equity mutual funds eased from record highs, with data showing a moderation in monthly net purchases. While SIP flows remain steady, thematic and sectoral funds saw slower subscriptions compared with the previous month. Fund managers say investors are reallocating between equity segments and increasing allocations to short-term debt amid expectations of future rate cuts. The shift signals a maturing investor base balancing return-seeking with yield sensitivity and highlights potential rotation opportunities across fund categories.

2h agoGlobal central banks show caution on rate cuts as inflation remains uneven
A cross-market survey shows central banks in several regions signalling caution on near-term rate cuts despite easing inflation in pockets. Policymakers emphasised a reliance on forward guidance and data dependency rather than pre-emptive easing. Markets interpreted the stance as a reason for potential range-bound yields and muted cyclicality in risk assets until clearer disinflation emerges. Economists note that central-bank patience will influence portfolio allocation decisions, particularly for duration and emerging-market assets, which are sensitive to policy shifts.

He added that the partnership reflects shared concerns about maritime security and regional stability in the Indo-Pacific. Analysts say the move underlines U.S. strategic focus on Southeast Asia amid China’s growing assertiveness and may prompt expanded defence-industry engagement and intelligence-sharing frameworks between the two countries.

3h agoOPEC+ Set to Agree Another Modest Oil Output Increase, Sources Say
OPEC+ is expected to approve a modest increase in crude-oil output targets—about 137,000 barrels per day—for December, according to multiple sources. The group has slowed the pace of production increases amid concerns of oversupply and weaker global demand. Western sanctions on Russia are making it harder for some members to boost output, adding complexity to the decision. Traders say the move may cap upside in oil prices while signalling the producers’ preference for stability-over-volume in the near term.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared that Tehran will rebuild its nuclear facilities "with greater strength", following recent strikes. He added the programme is not directed toward weapons development but civilian power and research. The statement comes amid ongoing scrutiny and potential sanctions from the U.S. and its allies. Analysts caution that such rhetoric could signal intensification of nuclear-sector infrastructure and heighten regional geopolitical and energy-security risks, with potential impact on oil markets and regional economic stability.

Turkey’s largest refiners are increasing purchases of crude from non-Russian suppliers such as Iraq and Kazakhstan ahead of December arrivals, following fresh Western sanctions on Russia. The shift is expected to reduce Russian crude intake by as much as 129,000 barrels per day. Industry sources say the move signals broader rerouting of energy flows and may influence global crude grades and shipping patterns. Analysts note implications for cost, quality and logistics as refiners adjust sourcing strategy in a rapidly evolving sanctions regime.

The inflows coincided with a spike in domestic silver premiums and retail buying ahead of festivals. However, in the days following the surge, ETF subscription activity has slowed due to supply constraints and premium hikes. Analysts say silver’s leveraged nature is appealing as a hedge for equity market volatility, but they caution that liquidity risks and sharp moves remain elevated given the metal’s smaller market size.

5h agoGold Prices Ease Slightly While Silver Gains in Indian Bullion Market
On 30 October in the Indian domestic market, 24-carat gold eased about 0.1% to ₹1,20,830 per 10 g, while silver rose approximately 0.5% to ₹1,47,300 per kg. On the Multi Commodity Exchange, December contract for gold traded at ₹1,20,539 per 10 g and silver at ₹1,46,900 per kg. The divergence reflects renewed industrial and investment demand for silver even as gold consolidates. Market watchers say silver’s larger beta and lesser liquidity are creating sharper moves compared with gold in current conditions.

5h agoIndia’s Silver Premiums Collapse After Festival Buying Spree
After India’s recent festival surge in silver purchases, premiums over global benchmark prices dropped to just 25-40 US cents per ounce from highs above US$5 earlier in October. Indian wholesale brokers say demand has cooled and many buyers are waiting for prices to settle before re-entering the market. Domestic silver prices corrected to roughly ₹147,000 per kg from a peak of around ₹170,415. The correction reflects both waning retail demand and some easing of global supply constraints.

Silver climbed about 1.2% while platinum rose nearly 0.9% on 31 October as investors sought safe-havens amid geopolitical and inflation concerns. Spot silver traded at around US$48.77 per ounce, extending weekly gains to over 3%. Analysts say silver’s dual role as both precious and industrial metal is bolstering demand, especially in sectors like solar and EV. While gold remains anchored near US$4,000 per ounce, silver is seen as offering higher beta exposure to upside risk, albeit with more volatility.

6h agoCentral Banks Extend Gold Buying Spree Amid Global Currency Shifts
World Gold Council data show central banks purchased over 74 tonnes of gold in October, led by China, Turkey and India, as part of ongoing reserve diversification. The buying reflects moves to reduce exposure to the U.S. dollar and shield reserves from geopolitical risk. Analysts say sustained official-sector demand provides a strong floor for gold prices heading into 2026. Central banks have now added nearly 1,000 tonnes of gold year-to-date — the fastest accumulation pace in over five decades.

Indian mutual fund houses reported net inflows of ₹482 crore into gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in October, reversing two months of outflows. Fund managers attribute the rise to portfolio rebalancing, geopolitical risk, and festive gold demand. The total assets under management for gold ETFs now exceed ₹31,000 crore, reflecting growing investor comfort with paper gold instruments. Analysts expect continued traction as investors use ETFs to hedge equity volatility and benefit from ease of liquidity and tax transparency.

Non-bank lenders are reporting double-digit growth in gold-backed loans, with firms like Muthoot Finance and Manappuram Finance expanding aggressively into semi-urban markets. Lower processing times, flexible repayment and easing interest rates have revived household borrowing against pledged jewellery. Analysts note that while demand is strong, loan-to-value ratios remain conservative, reflecting regulatory caution. The segment is seen as a reliable short-term credit bridge amid uneven rural cash flows and soft agri income.

Strategists described the move as short-term consolidation rather than a structural reversal, pointing to healthy domestic flows and SIP inflows that support the broader uptrend.

Market breadth narrowed on the session as profit-taking hit cyclical and mid-cap segments while defensive names held up. Strategists described the move as short-term consolidation rather than a structural reversal, pointing to healthy domestic flows and SIP inflows that support the broader uptrend. Portfolio managers will monitor global cues, upcoming earnings and macro prints for confirmation of momentum resumption.

8h agoIndia posts record defence export expansion as multi year capability upgrades begin delivering tangible output
India continued to accelerate strategic positioning as defence exports reached nearly ₹23,622 crore, reflecting concrete momentum shift from historic net import orientation toward systematic manufacturing scale up and higher complexity domestic capability plays. Market strategists indicated that such export acceleration provides multi channel benefits including domestic industrial deepening, value chain retention, higher productivity spillovers and stronger diplomatic alignment leverage across technology transfer channels. Defence economists observed this is a critical structural marker demonstrating that India is increasingly transitioning toward higher tier defence production ecosystem maturity instead of legacy build to buy patterns.

8h agoWeather anomaly triggers unexpected power demand contraction in October across multiple Indian regions
India recorded power consumption of nearly 132 billion units in October, marking a six percent decline driven by unseasonal rainfall patterns and cooler climate driven load compression. Market researchers indicated that this non linear demand dip does not structurally derail longer term electricity demand trajectory which remains linked to urbanization, digitalization and manufacturing capex cycles. Policy experts mentioned that the consumption deviation is primarily meteorologically driven and temporary, though grid utilization and load factor optimization measures will be tracked carefully heading into the winter months given dynamic climate variability risks on infrastructure.

8h agoOctober GST prints show mild sequential improvement but consumption momentum yet to fully normalize
India reported GST collections of nearly ₹1.96 lakh crore in October, indicating a 4.6 percent growth versus prior year period. However analysts pointed out that despite the positive headline expansion, domestic demand momentum reflected pockets of moderation driven by delayed festive cycle purchases and broader input cost resets. Economists noted that if seasonal tailwinds reaccelerate, latent demand should normalize during second half of November. Policy watchers remain focused on whether financing conditions and calibrated rate transitions can support smoother household and SME spending stability during near term activity phases.

8h agoSector specific MF product expansion aims at capturing targeted long term compounders
The diversification theme inside the mutual fund space gained further traction as LIC MF Consumption Fund and Mirae Asset Nifty Energy ETF opened new offerings aimed at long term structural growth sectors in India. Fund managers stated that consumer demand formalization cycle, transition to clean energy, manufacturing capacity expansion and shift in energy efficiency economics positioned these thematic categories for sustained compounding. Analysts believe this approach supports capture of narrower sector alpha rather than broad index replication as India’s mid and long horizon capital formation cycle remains resilient despite short term macro fluctuations.
