Exchange Rates
The exchange rates of Indian rupee keep fluctuating vis-à-vis other
currencies. When the rupee hardens in reference to other currencies it
causes Indian goods to become expensive in foreign markets,
Companies that are highly affected are those involved in overseas
operations. Companies hooked in to exports experience a drop by
demand for his or her goods abroad. Thus revenue from exports decline
and stock prices of such companies within the home country fall.
On the opposite hand, softening of rupee vis-à-vis other currencies leads
to the opposite effect, in this, the stock price of exporters rises whereas
that of importer drops.
Interest Rate and Inflation
Whenever the interest rates go up, banks raise the lending rates
which increase the value for corporates and individuals alike. The rising
cost will tend to make an impression on the profit levels of the business
affecting the stock prices of the corporate.
Inflation may be a surge within the pricing of products and services over
a period of your time. High inflation discourages investment and long-
term economic processes. The listed companies within the stock
exchange may postpone their investment and halt production, resulting
in a negative economic process. The autumn within the value of cash
could also cause a fall within the value of savings. The stocks of
luxurious companies also tend to suffer as nobody will want to take a
position in them. This not only adversely affects one's purchasing power
but also the investing power.
Politics
Factors like election, budget, government intervention, stability,
and other factors have an enormous impact on the economy and
therefore the financial markets. The political events and budget
announcements create tremendous levels of volatility within the market
influencing the stock exchange deeply.
Natural Disasters
Natural disasters hamper the lives and therefore the market equally.
It impacts the company’s performance and therefore the capacity of
individuals to spend the cash. This may cause lower levels of
consumption, lower sales and revenues ultimately hitting the company’s
stock performance.
Economic Numbers
Various economic indicators affect the general economy,
ultimately creating an impression on the financial market. The
movement of oil prices and GDP has an enormous impact on the stock
exchange. A rustic that's hooked into imported oil, any price change is
probably going to impact the economy. The movement of oil prices is
one among the key determinants of the stock exchange. As and when the
costs rise, the expenses will increase and can lower the buyers’ ability to
take a position within the market.
Similarly, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) looks at the aspect of total
economic production of the country and its overall economic health. It
helps to showcase the economic developments and therefore the future
direction of the market. A healthy GDP status will create a positive
impact on financial markets and investment.
