markets UPS Analysis CBOE Research Trade rights Nifty panics, but India VIX stays calm: Why is D-St fear gauge not reacting anymore?

Nifty50 is down about 7% in 2025 and one would assume that this period was marked by volatility. However, it is not reflected in the India VIX. The fear gauge index, as it is often referred to, fell nearly 6% year-to-date and is hovering 13.83 levels despite a sell-off in the Indian markets. India VIX has an inverse correlation with the markets as the index jumps when equities are falling. This is because a correction is often associated with a sense of panic and fear among investors and is not playing out the way it did historically.

Elon Musk's effort to slash U.S. government spending and the size of the federal workforce. However, the view it offers of the cost-cutting enterprise is often muddied by major errors. President Donald Trump and Musk's Department of Government Efficiency say that in just six weeks they have already saved American taxpayers tens of billions of dollars through rapid-fire moves to cancel contracts, fire workers and root out fraud and waste in the government. The only support for the assertions comes from data posted by DOGE to a newly created website that went live last month. But in the last two weeks alone, DOGE has deleted hundreds of claimed savings, including some of the largest items it had previously boasted about.

markets UPS Analysis economy wellness Trade rights Is Indian market, specially IT, facing structural issues? Anand Tandon explains

Anand Tandon, Independent Analyst, says while two lakh people are being added to the IT workforce every year, not that many will get jobs going forward, and some of them will get slowly laid off. Tandon says that the problem is not receiving enough attention and it is not a cyclical issue. It is a structural problem. India needs to find another industry which can grow in the same way. Tandon also says at the end of the day, markets are cyclical and market participants have to realise that. Give us your take on the markets. We are seeing a bit of recovery; the broader markets are also participating in this. What is looking interesting to you right now? Anand Tandon: Yes, the market is looking a little oversold and therefore it is possible that you will get a mild recovery. I would hesitate to rush in to buy though. There are structural problems in the Indian market now, primarily among them the IT sector. You have to remember that for the last two decades, the biggest driver for domestic consumption is actually the number of people who are employed in that sector. That now seems to be behind us.

markets UPS Action economy wellness Trade country 2025 will not be a repeat of 2008; advising clients to go very long on India: Jim Walker

Jim Walker, Chief Economist, Aletheia Capital, says if the US economy begins to slow and which is very likely, then the direction of travel is going to have to change and that really means that he is going to have to back off some of this aggression towards his partners and within his own country. Hopefully by the middle of this year, a lot more sensible decisions will be made and a lot more visibility about where we are going. The underlying fundamentals remain the same. Asia looks pretty good, India looks great, China is recovering, and the real problems lie in the advanced economies in America. Walker said to clients this week that this is the time to absolutely double down on the long in India, go much longer and although we worry about the valuations in the Indian stock market, my view is that economic growth is going to take off from here and those valuations will be quickly supported by corporate earnings. Walker, who had predicted the 2008 crisis, does not think the present situation is like 2008. It will be a pretty painful slowdown, but we can go to the other end of it without the kind of government and central bank action that took place in 2008, 2009.
