Sector Money Flow: 21/10/2026

Money‑flow dynamics – The only sector that managed a neutral net flow was IT, posting a modest –0.36 % decline while registering an equal number of advancing and declining stocks (15 Adv / 15 Dec). This balanced activity suggests that capital was rotating within the technology space without a clear directional bias. In contrast, Pharma, Energy, Banks, and FMCG each displayed a pronounced net outflow, with advancing stocks outnumbered by 9–10 points (e.g., Banks 5 Adv vs 15 Dec). The disparity between the modest price drops (‑0.5 % to ‑1.24 %) and the heavy skew toward declining issues indicates that investors were shedding exposure across these traditionally defensive and growth‑oriented segments.

Sector breakdowns – The most severe deteriorations were observed in Infra, Metal, and Auto, where the advancing‑stock count was essentially negligible (0–1 Adv) against 19–20 declining stocks, driving double‑digit percentage losses (‑2.56 % to ‑2.73 %). Media also faltered, with only 4 advancers versus 11 decliners, resulting in a ‑2.51 % slide. The cumulative picture is one of broad‑based weakness, with capital flowing out of most sectors and the most pronounced breakdowns concentrated in infrastructure‑related, metal‑production, and automotive equities.
