Below the Commentary on Markets 14th July 2026 by Mr. Vikram Kasat, Head Advisory, PL Capital

“Equity Market saw widespread selling across sectors today, as the Sensex and Nifty closed in negative territory, due to increased geopolitical tensions in the Middle East region. The intensification of hostilities between the US and Iran has seen the cost of Brent crude surge past the $85 per barrel level, posing risks of imported inflation, fiscal strength of India and margins for Indian companies. Poor external signals, book profit by financials, IT and automobiles, besides a risk-off stance contributed to the fall, causing erosion of wealth for investors. Going ahead, events in the Middle East region, trend in crude prices, earnings season and FII inflows would be major factors that would influence the market.”
