Indian Markets Rally on US Midterm Results, Oil Price Decline, and Foreign Investment
Indian stock markets surged to near three-month highs following the US midterm elections, with the Sensex rising over 1,300 points and the Nifty crossing 24,300. The Democratic Party's victory raised hopes of easing US-Iran tensions, contributing to a sharp decline in crude oil prices to a two-month low. Renewed foreign investor buying and strong corporate earnings further supported the rally. While global markets showed mixed reactions, Indian equities extended their winning streak amid optimism over reduced geopolitical risks and improved macroeconomic outlook.
