Analysts said the market witnessed selective bargain hunting after the recent correction, although the overall mood remained cautious due to global uncertainties and rising energy prices. “The rebound was also supported by relatively stable global cues, helping reduce immediate downside pressure. However, gains remained limited due to elevated crude oil prices, rising inflation concerns and continued FII outflows, which kept the overall market sentiment cautious and led to a selective, measured upmove rather than a strong, broad-based rally,” Gaurav Garg, Research Analyst at Lemonn Markets Desk, said, PTI quoted. Ajit Mishra, SVP-Research at Religare Broking Ltd, said metals, energy and FMCG stocks showed resilience, while pressure persisted in IT and automobile shares. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) sold equities worth Rs 1,959.39 crore on Tuesday, according to exchange data, continuing the recent outflow trend. Brent crude slipped 0.5 per cent to USD 107.27 per barrel, though oil prices remained elevated amid geopolitical tensions. Investors also tracked domestic inflation data after India’s retail inflation in April rose to 3.48 per cent, driven mainly by higher prices of gold, silver jewellery and select kitchen items. Asian markets including Japan’s Nikkei 225, South Korea’s Kospi, Shanghai’s SSE Composite and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng ended in positive territory. European markets traded mixed, while US equities had closed mostly lower overnight.
