Indian Small-Cap Stocks Gain on US AI Boom Amid Valuation Warnings
What happened
Ather Energy and Sterlite Technologies posted gains in the Indian market, driven by US AI infrastructure spending. However, reports note that while many top-performing small-cap stocks are linked to the US data-centre boom, enthusiasm for AI investment is showing signs of cooling on Wall Street.
Why it matters
Analysts warn that the rally in Indian small-cap valuations may be stretched. A pullback in US capital expenditure could weigh on the share prices of Indian suppliers, even those whose order books are backed by genuine demand.
