BSE and Angel One both fell today, mainly due to regulatory changes announced by SEBI around equity derivatives, which have negatively affected their business models and investor sentiment. Broader market volatility from global cues and domestic sectoral concerns also contributed to the decline.
Reasons for BSE Fall
- The BSE experienced a decline in line with mixed performance across sectors and overall market uncertainty.
- SEBI's announcement to extend equity derivatives tenure caused immediate concern for exchanges like BSE, as it could impact trading volumes and market liquidity.
Global markets provided mixed cues, increasing risk aversion among investors and producing sharp sectoral declines.
Reasons for Angel One Fall
- SEBI's regulatory changes on futures and options have directly impacted Angel One's broking business by reducing trading volumes and earnings from derivatives.
- Angel One also reported weaker financial results for recent quarters, including a drop in revenue and operating profit, which further weighed on its share price.
Overall market volatility, foreign investor outflows, and broader financial sector weakness have led to a lack of confidence in broking stocks like Angel One.
Key Factors Affecting Both
- SEBI’s regulatory announcements about derivatives tenure have spooked investors, specifically impacting both exchanges (BSE) and broking firms (Angel One).
- Weak sectoral performance and cautious investor sentiment in the Indian market due to global economic uncertainty have amplified the fall.
Immediate reactions in share prices are typical when fundamental business practices or revenue calculations face regulatory changes.
Both stocks’ declines largely stem from changing regulations and broader market nerves rather than company-specific news alone
