Today leans cautious — foreign money out, domestic catching it

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

Today leans cautious

US futures lower · Asia mixed · rupee weaker
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 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.

Foreign investors have been net sellers for the 4th session running.

BSE delivery 68.6% on Wed 7 Oct, above its 63% one-month norm but within the usual daily range.
