INDA

The Week

INDA.US gained 0.71% this week to close at $49.91, outpacing the S&P 500 by roughly 0.62 percentage points after the benchmark added 0.09%. Trading was range-bound: the ETF opened at $49.87 on Monday, eased to a weekly low of $49.505 on Tuesday, rebounded to $49.970 on Wednesday, and then drifted sideways into Friday’s close of $49.91. The weekly range was just 1.03%, pointing to a cautious tape without a clear directional push. There was no major catalyst this week; an early-week report on US rate and crude worries weighing on Indian shares had limited follow-through for the ETF itself.

The Week Ahead

Attention shifts to US macro data. Tuesday (Sep 8) brings the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index, with a prior reading of 99.8. Thursday (Sep 10) is a heavy session: initial jobless claims, final demand PPI, existing home sales annual rate and the 10-year Treasury auction all land on the same day. These prints can feed into dollar and Treasury moves, which in turn shape risk appetite for Indian assets. On the India side the calendar is light, though lingering effects from the MSCI rejig in the closing auction remain a point to watch.
