Global Funds Reduce India Equity Exposure Amid AI Investment Concerns and Market Shifts
Global investors are reducing their exposure to Indian equities, with foreign portfolio ownership hitting a 17-year low amid concerns over the absence of an artificial intelligence investment theme and lukewarm corporate earnings. India, once a favored market due to strong economic growth and infrastructure development, now ranks as the least-preferred market in Asia. Despite foreign capital outflows, domestic institutions and sectors like banking and power remain relatively attractive. Meanwhile, India's IPO market continues to show strength, and some experts highlight the country's long-term growth potential despite current market challenges.
