  • Citi Cuts Nifty 50 Target to 26,000 Citing Geopolitical and AI Risks
    June 11, 2026, 2:05 AM EDT. Citi has lowered its Nifty 50 target to 26,000 from 27,000, reflecting a 12% upside potential amid subdued foreign institutional investor (FII) sentiment. Key risks include geopolitical tensions, AI-related concerns, and El-Nino effects impacting India's economic outlook. Citi highlights underweight positioning in Indian markets by global funds, driven by forex challenges and limited AI infrastructure participation. Positives include strong domestic demand and steady domestic flows. Market watchers should monitor IT sector slowdown, domestic fund flows, and shifts in AI beneficiary roles. Citi favors Financials, Telecom, Healthcare, Defence, and Utilities while underweighting IT Services, Staples, and Metals. Hitachi Energy joins Citi's top picks with hopes for easing West Asia tensions and FII outflow stabilization.
