3 cases of Chinese virus HMPV confirmed in India
The first and biggest reason for today’s catastrophe in the stock market is the Chinese virus HMPV. On Monday, 3 cases of this virus have been confirmed in India. The first two cases came from Bengaluru, the capital of Karnataka, while the third case came from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Children have been found infected in all three cases. The virus was found in a 3-month-old baby in Bengaluru, who has been discharged from the hospital. Whereas, an 8 month old child is undergoing treatment. The child found infected in Ahmedabad is also out of danger.
Heavy selling by FIIs is also a major reason for the disaster.
Heavy selling by FIIs is also a major reason for this disaster. Foreign institutional investors are continuously withdrawing money by selling Indian shares. These investors sell shares in large quantities, whose direct and major impact is visible. As soon as the entry of HMPV in India is confirmed, there is panic among foreign investors. Apart from these, the latest rise in crude oil prices, continuous fall in rupee and selling in the global market have also accelerated this decline.
