Foreign investors post longest buying streak in 2 years: Here's what their top sector picks reveal
Foreign investors have turned buyers again in Indian shares. Their five-fortnight buying streak is the longest in two years, with ₹63,941 crore invested. But the buying is narrow, not across the board. Most money went into financials, consumer-linked businesses, healthcare, and services. Retail investors should watch this shift as a clue, not a signal that everything will rise. Selling still continues in several sectors.
Key Statutory Highlights
- FPIs bought ₹63,941 crore in Indian equities over the past five fortnights, the longest buying stretch in two years.
- Five sectors accounted for 81% of these inflows — financial services, consumer services, healthcare, consumer durables and services.
- Before this turn, FPIs had offloaded about ₹2.75 lakh crore over seven fortnights from March 1 to June 15.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Track sector-level FPI data over the next few fortnights, but treat it as one clue for investment decisions, not a guaranteed trend.
