Jefferies: Mutual Fund Inflows Stabilize Indian Stock Market
The Indian stock market is getting support from people putting money into mutual funds, which is preventing it from falling too much.
Jefferies, an investment firm, says that this is keeping the market stable.
They predict a lot more stocks will be available, but mutual funds should absorb them.
Investors are selling, and valuations are still high.
Jefferies believes the market will likely stay sideways for now.
They are optimistic about India's long-term growth in the stock market due to structural factors.
Mutual fund inflows are preventing a deeper market decline.
USD 21 billion flowed into mutual funds between April and August.
Monthly SIP inflows are approximately USD 3 billion.
The market is expected to trade sideways for the rest of the year.
Jefferies views India's long-term equity story as positive.
