The Indian stock market faced a downturn, with the Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex dropping over 1% last week. The market, now in a five-week downtrend, is affected by US tariffs, FII selling, and rising inflation fears. Investors are keenly watching the upcoming RBI monetary policy decision and corporate earnings, with over 800 companies reporting soon. Despite the decline, experts suggest a potential market recovery if inflation stabilizes and trade talks progress. Key factors this week include RBI announcements, Trump tariffs, and global economic data.
