List of top 5 gainers and losers this week in the Large-cap space.
The flow of foreign institutional investors continues to be fairly weak in India whereas the domestic flows supported the markets this week. While FIIs were net sellers of Rs 5,524.52 crore in the Indian Equities market, DIIs were net buyers to the tune of Rs 4,862.62 crore so far this week. The Fed decision to hike rates next year is likely to accentuate the outflow from Indian equities. Domestic flows and the spread of the omicron virus will hold the key to the market’s next course.
