While India Rockets Upwards, Markets Shift Downwards
The graceful lunar landing of Chandrayaan 3 has filled every Indian heart’s with pride, showcasing India’s space prowess. Surprisingly, it cost far less than Hollywood’s production of the film ‘Interstellar’. The fusion of science fiction with reality felt surreal. However, amid this elation, the stock market took a roller-coaster ride. After a strong start akin to a rocket’s liftoff, the Nifty 50 index plummeted by 0.29 per cent, a reminder of the financial world’s unpredictability, mirroring the twists of space exploration. Beyond the stock market’s frenzied dance, the successful lunar landing held implications that reached far beyond the moon’s surface.
