Indian Stocks Log Longest Weekly Losing Run in 25 Years

Indian stock markets had another difficult week.

The Sensex and Nifty both fell on Thursday.

They also fell for the eighth week in a row.

This was their longest losing streak in 25 years.

Foreign investors sold many Indian shares.

Indian institutions bought almost as much, which helped limit the fall.

Higher crude oil prices and rising US interest-rate expectations hurt markets.

Technology stocks gained as the rupee weakened, but several other sectors declined.

Investors are now watching the Reserve Bank of India’s next policy decision.
