The Road to a Broad Market Rally Looks Difficult 📉
Inflation remains a concern, interest rates could stay elevated, FIIs continue to sell, geopolitical tensions remain high, and the rupee keeps facing depreciation pressure.

Yet one thing remains true: even in a weak market, select businesses and stocks can continue to outperform.
The market may be struggling—but opportunities in individual stocks never disappear.
