Amol Athawale, Vice President of Technical Research at Kotak Securities, said, “Weak global cues and a sharp rise in crude oil prices dampened the market sentiment as banking and technology stocks led the downfall. While the market is already coping up with global economic uncertainty, concerns over the flare-up in the Israel-Palestine conflict have been making investors jittery. Investors are also worried about the persistent FII selling and the rising US dollar and treasury yields.
