Key Highlights
- The Nifty50 index was corrected 11% from its record high of 18,604, which it touched on 19 October 2021. Currently, the index has recovered 5% from its recent lows.
- Experts feel that this correction was legitimate, especially since there was a one-way run continuing longer than 18 months. It made the market expensive in comparison to global peers.
- Moreover, Omicron’s fears and a growing expectation that the US will hike rates have caused a near reversal in market trends.
