Over $3 billion already invested in domestic equities in March; Fed pause, hopes of political continuity key drivers. : Overseas investors have poured $3.2 billion (Rs 22,340 crore) into domestic equities this month. If the rest of the month sees no outflows, this will be the highest inflow tally in a calendar month since March 2017, when foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) had pumped in $5.1 billion. Experts say foreign investor sentiment was bolstered by the US Federal Reserve’s decision to go slow with interest rate hikes and hopes of political stability.
