💹 The Week That Was: Oct 6 – Oct 10, 2025
Indian equities bounced back, helped by a renewed appetite for financials 💰 and supportive global cues 🌍. On Friday, the Sensex jumped 329 points, while Nifty crossed 25,250 — with SBI and Maruti Suzuki cruising in the fast lane 🚗💨
🏦 Finance Fires Up the Rally
After weeks of outflows, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) finally decided to swipe right on India again ❤️, pumping some life into the financial sector.
The week opened on a strong note as Kotak and HDFC Bank reported healthy loan growth 📈, lifting sentiment across the banking pack.
The undisputed star of the week?
👉 SBI, which surged ~2.16% on Friday, hit a 52-week high, and basically said: “Private banks, take notes.” 😎
💻 IT’s “Not-So-Happy Hour”
While finance was busy celebrating, IT stocks were quietly sulking in the corner. 😅
TCS posted weak results that acted as a speed bump 🛑 for the broader rally.
Infosys inched up just +0.32%, which is basically the market equivalent of a polite smile 🙂 while everyone else is dancing.
