Heightened trade tensions between the US and China, coupled with uncertainties surrounding the upcoming release of FOMC minutes, tested the risk appetite of global investors." However, Nair also added, "the market's last-minute broad-based recovery serves as a reaffirmation of investors' confidence in the Indian economy."
