pre-market1 source ↓written by the desknot a recommendation

The Indian capital markets surged to record highs following U.S. tariff reductions for India, boosting market optimism. Jefferies has adjusted its model portfolio, reducing IT stock allocations while increasing exposure to metals, particularly Hindustan Zinc and JSW Steel. This shift reflects a strategic pivot towards cyclical industries benefiting from favorable trade policies.

• Hindustan Zinc highlighted for silver and zinc potential

• Jefferies increases allocation to materials sector

• Institutional strategy shifts towards cyclical industries

Immediate market implications suggest heightened interest in the metals sector as trade uncertainties ease.
