The stock market went down again.
The Sensex and Nifty 50, which measure how well the market is doing, both fell.
This is the fourth week in a row that the market has lost value, the longest losing streak of this year.
This happened because many investors were selling their stocks.
Companies in the IT sector, like those that make computer software and services, and smaller companies saw big drops.
