The Nifty index dropped by 0.88 percent and the Sensex fell by 0.79 percent. At the same time, the wider markets also weakened and the India VIX volatility gauge jumped up sharply.
Context
When bond yields and crude oil prices stay high at the same time, it usually puts pressure on stock markets because borrowing costs go up for companies and import bills increase for the country. Investors closely watch these economic indicators to gauge the direction of corporate earnings and overall financial stability in the coming months.
