Ethereum’s biggest gathering came to India for the first time. Mumbai barely noticed

Ethereum’s biggest gathering came to India for the first time. Mumbai barely noticed

India has reclaimed its spot among the world's top five largest stock markets by value, with its market capitalization reaching approximately $5.4 trillion. This resurgence comes after a record rally in Indian equities over the past ten trading sessions. The indices have surged nearly 12%, erasing losses stemming from a potential US-Iran war.

The rally is being driven by a combination of factors, including a decrease in investor enthusiasm for AI-related stocks, a drop in oil prices, and improved corporate earnings for the July-September quarter. Bank of America and Moody's have both upgraded their growth forecasts for India's economy in the third quarter of 2026, projecting a 7.7% and 7% year-on-year increase, respectively.

The shift in global investment flows has set India apart from other markets, as overseas investors are returning to Indian equities while Taiwan recorded its highest-ever foreign fund outflows in October due to a selloff in AI-linked stocks.
