TL;DR.

Indian markets declined around 3 percent in the month of May amid the ongoing volatility. The market had many headwinds in May and many of them like geopolitical tensions concerns over growth, continuing FII outflows and aggressive rate hikes. Uninspiring March-quarter earnings also weighed on sentiment. Going ahead, the upcoming US FOMC meeting and RBI MPC meet in June and updates on the Ukraine war will dictate the trends of the market in the near term.
