What happened
Analysts warn that high crude oil prices and global monetary tightening will restrict foreign institutional investor inflows into emerging markets for the next two to three months. This outlook is based on comments made by Shrikant Chouhan of Kotak Securities. The headwinds are attributed to interest rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan, alongside 5 per cent US bond yields.
