Sandeep Tandon sees signs of market bottoming out. Explains how dollar, crude, gold favor India

Market expert and Quant Mutual Fund’s CIO Sandeep Tandon advised investors to stay mentally resilient as markets undergo a correction, emphasizing that market cycles demand patience and perspective ash e acknowledged that after four years of extraordinary returns from 2020 to 2024, investor expectations had soared, making the current 15-20% correction feel more painful than usual.

However, he reassured that such pullbacks are a natural part of both structural and cyclical bull runs and that the market is showing signs of bottoming out.

In an interaction with ETNow, Tandon explained that “the biggest risk was the expectation risk”, citing how investors had grown accustomed to sustained outperformance. As a result, the current 15-20% corrections appear harsher than they actually are.

He also pointed out that market sentiment has shifted from a «buy on dip» strategy to a «sell on rise» approach, leading to heightened caution among investors. However, he suggested that the broader market, including NSE and BSE 500, is showing signs of bottoming out, stating that «nobody has bought exactly at the bottom and nobody has sold exactly at the peak. So, time has come to nibble into it and see.»
