Indian markets face potential choppiness as foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) have significantly increased bearish bets on index futures to a record high. Proprietary traders have also raised bearish positions in options. This heightened activity, coupled with an upcoming US Supreme Court decision on President Trump's tariffs, is expected to contribute to market volatility. Despite domestic institutional buying pushing the Nifty to a record high, FPIs have maintained short positions.
