FPIs Withdraw from Indian Equities Amid AI Boom and US Bond Yield Impact
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) have been withdrawing funds from Indian equities amid a global shift towards markets benefiting from the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, such as the US, South Korea, and Taiwan. NSE CEO Ashish Chauhan views these outflows as cyclical, expecting capital to return once the AI-driven rally subsides. Meanwhile, analysts note that elevated US bond yields and attractive IPO returns in India are influencing FPIs to sell in secondary markets while investing in primary offerings, with a preference for midcap and smallcap stocks despite overall benchmark declines.
