IT stocks drag Nifty as FMCG and healthcare hold firm
In short
IT shares pulled down the Nifty, while FMCG and healthcare stayed steady. Foreign investors bought for the third straight session, but traders still worried about weak tech shares and global uncertainty.
The report does not say the index level or the size of the moves. It is still unclear how much of the weakness came from profit-taking versus broader market caution.
What the reporting says
IT stocks dragged the Nifty even as FMCG and healthcare held firm, with foreign investors buying for a third straight session. The market action was set against technology-sector weakness, global uncertainties and possible profit-booking after recent gains. The reporting does not give an index level, date, or sector-by-sector move size, so the full scale of the slide and support is not stated in the available reporting.
