00:00:00 - 00:15:00

The video discusses how the Indian markets corrected last Friday, and explains that this has reignited the interest rate debate. The video also provides a brief explanation of what repo rate is and how it affects the stock market. The speaker explains how increasing interest rates will impact the stock market. In one scenario, no one is expecting the interest rate to go up, leading to a market fall. In the second scenario, people are already expecting the interest rate to go up, leading to a market fall even if the interest rate is increased by the federal government. The third scenario is when people are expecting the interest rate to go up but the federal government decides to decrease the interest rate instead. This causes a market rise, which in turn causes an increase in inflation.
