Niftybank vs S&P500
Nifty50 vs S&P500
NiftyIT vs Nasdaq 100
Outperformance of Indian indices are evident. According to you what is contributing to this divergence??
PS: its not fair to compare banknifty vs SPX but i kept it as most traders prefer BN
For comparison purpose I feel we should convert one to another currency.
So nifty should be converted in USD terms.
create the same visualizations corrected for USD… these are free markets so always compare in same currency.
@Jason_Castelino @ranton137 – yeah converting to USD has brought down the divergence
so the USDINR appreciation has a big part to play in the valuations of our stock indices?
BN vs SP500 is not a good comparison obviously but others are close. And if you exclude the effect of RBI’s attempt of stabilizing the USDINR that also becomes very small.
There might be multiple POV’s on this and I can do a complete write up of my POV but I would suggest to read about CAPM in the fundamental sense. And how the capital providers expected rate of return is dependant on risk free rate and the “riskiness” beta of the asset he is investing in. And in free markets where curriencies can flow from one area to other with almost negligible expense capital providers i.e. investors should consider in same currency and currency effects are handled to an extent directly on the CAPM calculation.
PS – I dont know what ur background is but if this seems too confusing to understand just ask ELI5 Version of CAPM to ChatGPT.
I would say this is because of the rise of DIIs and their confidence in Indian growth story. While FIIs kept selling this FY, DIIs kept on buying. We have a fairly young population, huge market because of the population size and after years of coalition govts we have a majority political setup which is not strangled by allies when it comes to reform measures.

Obviously it will. Interest rates play a huge role in determining required rate of return to the investors. Higher interest rates leads to currency depreciation also. It’s all linked.
One more factor which plays an important role is the implicit risk. When the risk associated is more, investor demand higher return too.
These two are theoretical and part of fundamentals.
In addition to this it’s all about demand and supply. That can come because of different reason.
Our broader markets have taken a hit from last year and indices are doing fairly good as we are getting more consistent flows into them via SIPs and even fundamentally, we are witnessing formalization of the economy.
Thanks to the Adani saga and China’s reopening, We have actually underperformed in the last 6 months
