AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Markets Under Pressure: India’s Sensex slid nearly 700 points and the Nifty sank below 23,800 as the rupee hit a fresh record low of 95.58 per dollar, with crude oil jumping and US-Iran ceasefire worries keeping investors risk-off. IT Stocks Lead the Selloff: Infosys and TCS fell more than 2–3% as traders flagged softer global demand and potential tech-spend pullbacks. Geopolitics Tighten the Belt: The US escalated “Economic Fury” sanctions, targeting 12 entities tied to Iran’s oil shipments to China—raising the odds of more energy-price volatility. Policy Moves to Stabilize: Greece’s banks reported strong credit expansion, while Cyprus’ Fitch rating was affirmed at A- with a positive outlook. Development Deals: The World Bank backed Liberia’s Legacy Economic Corridor, and Afghanistan approved a border economic zone with Uzbekistan—both aimed at turning infrastructure into jobs and trade.
