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
Yesterday'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 65.1% on Mon 5 Oct — in line with its 63% one-month norm.
