Key indices dropped sharply during the first week of March amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, setting crude oil prices followed by relentless selling by foreign portfolio investors (FPIs). The continued escalation of the ongoing war and its consequent global economic fallout continued to weigh down the investor's sentiment. In the commodities market, Brent crude for May 2022 settlement was up $2.5 at $112.96 a barrel. The contract surged approximately 20% in a week. Crude oil prices spiked up after OPEC and its allies decided to hold production steady despite the recent dramatic spike in oil prices. Higher crude oil prices could substantially increase India's fiscal deficit, current account deficit and stoke fuel price inflation. The second week of March, saw steady gains. This streak of gain extended for another week with robust gains. While the volatility of the markets was extremely high due to the ongoing Russian-Ukraine war nevertheless Nifty ended up at the 17,300 level. This streak didn’t last long as markets faced modest losses with the market sentiment being negative overall.
