Adani Stocks Defy Market Slump as Sensex, Nifty Retreat After Recent Rally
Adani Group stocks buck the broader market downturn—Sensex and Nifty pull back after a strong run.
Market Resilience
While major indices take a breather, Adani equities show notable strength, ignoring the wider sell-off. Investors flock to quality names even as profit-taking hits recent high-flyers.
Sentiment Shift
Traders rotate out of overheated sectors but keep faith in infrastructure and energy plays. Another day, another reminder that in Indian markets, some whales just swim against the tide.
