Indian stocks have staged a strong comeback in recent sessions, with benchmark indices witnessing a sustained rally that bulls had been eagerly awaiting since the beginning of the year.
While there have been no significant domestic triggers behind the upmove, the rally has largely been driven by the return of foreign investors, who had largely stayed away from Asia's third-largest economy in recent months.
Their shift in sentiment comes amid a rotation away from AI-linked stocks, driven by concerns over a slowdown in data center expansion following the Democrats' victories in both houses.
A sharp retreat in crude oil prices has also boosted foreign investors' optimism towards Indian equities, prompting FPIs to pour ₹53,739 crore into domestic stocks in November so far, according to NSDL data. The inflows have helped the Nifty 50 extend its winning streak to seven consecutive sessions, enabling the benchmark index to pare its year-to-date losses to 4.15%.
