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 higher · Asia higher
Thursday's thread was whether that foreign selling would carry through. It carried — foreign investors stayed net sellers. Foreign money kept selling while domestic funds bought the dip. US futures are higher overnight, and Asia's following. The thread to watch: whether that selling carries into the session, or domestic money holds the tape up alone.

BSE delivery ran light on Thu 1 Oct: 57.2% versus a 63.7% one-month norm (−6.5pt) — and it holds even without the five most-traded stocks.
