Nifty Auto looks set to snap a 5-month winning streak - Should you buy the dip in auto, auto ancillary stocks? | Stock Market News
Nifty Auto looks set to snap a five-month winning streak, slipping 6% in September on profit booking. Maruti Suzuki is down nearly 11%. Global central banks have raised rates, and the auto sector is rate-sensitive, so a possible RBI hike could hurt festive-season demand. August sales were still strong. Experts stay positive but suggest selective buying after checking a company's fundamentals.
