Is the SENSEX likely to follow Nifty's reaction to higher bond yields?
Yes, as both indices represent Indian equities, the SENSEX is likely to face similar selling pressure if bond yields remain elevated relative to dividend yields.
What could shield SENSEX from the impact of higher bond yields?
Stronger-than-expected corporate earnings or an increase in dividend payouts could help offset the relative appeal of bonds and support the SENSEX.
