Over the years, the Sensex’s performance during Diwali Muhurat trading has consistently provided encouragement to traders and investors. Looking back at the period from 2012 to 2022, India’s benchmark stock market index, the Sensex, has displayed a diverse range of trends.
In 2012, the Diwali Muhurat trading day witnessed a minor dip in the Sensex, declining by 0.3%. It was a gentle start to what would become a decade of mixed fortunes for the index. The subsequent years, 2013 and 2014, saw modest increases of 0.2%. These small gains were perhaps setting the stage for more significant movements in the years to come.
The trend took a positive turn in 2018 when the Sensex surged by 0.7%. This year marked a significant shift in market sentiment, with investors regaining confidence in Indian equities. In 2019 and 2020, the positive momentum continued with increases of 0.49% and 0.45%, respectively.
In the more recent years, 2021 and 2022, the Sensex maintained its positive momentum with gains of 0.49 percent and 0.88 percent, respectively. These years served as a testament to the resilience and strength of the Indian stock market, even in the face of global uncertainties.
As we approach Diwali in 2023, the Sensex’s historical performance provides a glimpse of the market’s capacity to weather challenges and emerge stronger, offering hope and opportunities for those who participate in the world of trading and investments.
