Jiojit Financial Services, Chief Investment Strategist Dr. According to VK Vijaykumar, “globally markets are going through instability due to extreme uncertainty. There is no clue about how this disturbance caused by Trump tariff. There will be the best strategy in this turbulent phase of the waiting and watch market.”
Vijaykumar says that there are some things that investors should keep in mind. “One, irrational trump tariff will not continue for a long time. Two, India is relatively better because India exports in the US because the percentage of GDP is only 2 percent and hence the impact on India’s development will not be significant. Three, India is negotiating a bilateral trade agreement with the US and it is likely to succeed in low tariffs for India.”
“There is a possibility of relatively unheard of the ongoing crisis in domestic consumption subjects like Financial, Aviation, Hotel, Select Auto, Cement, Defense and Digital Platform companies. Trump is unlikely to put tariffs on pharmaceuticals as he is now on the back leg and hence, he is likely to show flexibility,” he said.

On the domestic front, the conclusion of the MPC meeting on 9 April will be important, followed by the important economic indicators- IIP and CPI Data-11 April. The quarterly income season begins with TCS, which presents its results on 10 April.

Why is the stock market falling today?

1. US Market Nasdac now in bear area
Nasdaq Index moved to the bear market area on Friday, falling more than 20% from its latest high point. This was followed by a comprehensive tariff declaration by US President Donald Trump, which increased concerns about economic recession worldwide. The broad nature of these tariffs caught the market participants from the guard, which led to a sufficient decline in international financial markets.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said the tariffs exceeded the anticipated level and warned of their possible impacts on inflation and economic expansion, contributing to unclear possibilities for the US economy.
2. Global market accident
Indian stock markets reflected a widespread international decline with significant decline in Asian exchanges. Japanese Nikkei declined by 7%, while South Korea’s Koppy declined by 5%, and the Chinese Blue-Chip index declined by about 7%. Hong Seng of Hong Kong experienced a sufficient decrease of more than 10.5%.
Concurrently, the US futures showed consistent weakness, showing a decline of NASDAQ 4% and a decline in S&P 500 futures. European futures markets also demonstrated significant negative movements.
3. US recession feared
Investors are rapidly concerned about the economic recession rather than immediate inflation challenges. The upcoming US Consumer Price Index (CPI) report is estimated to show an increase of 0.3% for March. However, experts estimate that adjacent tariffs will increase adequate cost to various industries, affecting everything from foods to vehicles.
As the earning season begins, businesses are likely to face pressure on their profit margin due to high operating expenses. About 87% of the US firms will reveal their financial results between April 11 and May 9, in which financial institutions will lead announcements.
4. Global commodity prices dipped
The worldwide commodities market experienced adequate losses due to low demand and concerns about potential economic contractions.
The price of Brent crude declined by 6.5%, while WTI saw a decrease of 7.4%. Precious metals were not spared, with 2.4% fall in gold and 7.3%. Industrial metals also experienced significant cuts, as the copper fell 6.5%, the zinc declined by 2%, and aluminum declined by 3.2%, showing the discomfort about investors’ business disputes and the possibilities of recession.
5. Safe Havans in Focus
The market participants shifted towards safe investment as concerns increased about the economic downturn worldwide, causing additional pressure on the stock markets. Strong demand for government securities made the 10 -year -old American Treasury yield below 8 basis points to 3.916%. Trading futures in the Fed Fund increased, indicating expectations of additional 25-base-point decrease in rates by the US Federal Reserve within the year.
Widespread steps towards safe assets resulted in widespread sales in equity markets, as a vigilant feeling spread to global trading places. Although Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicated on Friday that the central bank remains patient about policy changes, market estimates now suggest 56% probability of reduction in rate by May.
