Today leans constructive — foreign money out, domestic catching it

The read as recorded on this date — the same words and numbers that went to subscribers.

Today leans constructive

US futures soft · Asia mixed
Foreign money kept selling while domestic funds bought the dip. US futures are lower overnight, and Asia's mixed this morning. The thread to watch: whether that selling carries into the session, or domestic money holds the tape up alone.

BSE delivery 66.4% on Wed 12 Aug, above its 62% one-month norm but within the usual daily range.
