FIIs Resume Selling

Foreign investors sold US$1 bn of Indian shares in the past eight sessions after volatility in the domestic and global markets amid mounting recessionary concerns. This was the biggest sale by FIIs in recent times.

Foreign investors sold a provisional Rs 28.9 bn of shares on September 23, according to data from the National Stock Exchange of India.

They sold US$686.13 m in equities from 14 September 2022 till 22 September 2022, data from the Securities Exchange Board of India showed. They were net sellers in five out of seven sessions.

It has ongoing projects in 30 countries and has been associated with over 455 overseas projects, both completed and ongoing.

Oil Below US$85

Brent crude oil prices inched lower below US$85 a barrel on Monday on fears of lower fuel demand from an expected global recession sparked by rising worldwide interest rates and as a surging U.S. dollar limits the ability of non-dollar consumers to purchase crude.

The crude oil futures for November slipped US$1.6% to US$84.8 a barrel. This is the lowest since 14 January 2022. This has affected crude oil prices and crude oil stocks in India.

These falling crude oil price trajectory started in December 2021 with the disruptions in the oil market from the Russia-Ukraine war, with European Union sanctions banning Russian crude

The central banks across numerous oil-consuming countries, including the world's biggest crude user, have raised interest rates to fight surging inflation which has led to concerns the tightening could trigger an economic slowdown.

The attention is now turning to what the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and allies led by Russia, together known as OPEC+, will do when they meet on 5 October 2022.

But, since OPEC+ is producing well below its targeted output, any announced cut may not have much impact on supply.Data last week showed OPEC+ missed its target by 3.58 m barrels per day in August, a bigger shortfall than in July.
