Below the Quote on Weekly Market Round-Up by Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities

Reciprocal tariff concerns continued to dominate the global and the Indian equity markets. Nifty 50 and the Sensex 30 indices saw weekly loss, whereas the BSE Midcap and the BSE SmallCap indices posted weekly gains. On the sectoral front too, the performance were mixed. BSE Metals and BSE Power were amongst the key gainer. BSE Auto led losses during the week as auto stocks were under pressure amid news report pertaining to possible sharp reduction in import duty. BSE IT and BSE healthcare were also impacted amid concerns over reciprocal tariffs by the US. Weak investment sentiment for emerging market, news flow on tariffs and monetary policy outcomes is expected to influence equity markets in the near term.
