The boom of the Indian stock market is like a child who does not want to get off the ride no matter what anyone says. Sensex and Nifty, which reached overbought levels following passing through the green signal for eight days in a row, were in the red last Friday, but on a week-to-date basis, they are up regarding 1 percent. Most global markets, including the US and Europe, ended the week with slight gains. This week, the announcement of interest rates in three countries including India, the Gujarat election result, the Covid situation in China, and the consequences of the price controls imposed by the G7 countries on Russian crude oil are lined up with many events that can influence the market.

The expiration of November futures and options contracts this Thursday might cause market volatility. As there are no major announcements scheduled from the country, movements in global markets will have an impact here as well. Let’s check what they are.
