The U.S. dollar has dropped below the 100 mark, hitting its lowest level in two years. This fall may encourage Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) to invest more in India, as U.S. assets like bond yields and the dollar are losing value.

Market sentiment has also improved after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs. He also said he would support auto companies, which gave investors more confidence—even though the 25% tariff on autos is still in place. 

US stock markets kicked off the week on a strong note, with all three major indices closing higher on Monday. The Dow Jones jumped over 300 points, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also posted solid gains.
