Shares of small capital-based companies surged abnormally on the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) in the past month whereas the benchmark index of the premier bourse of Bangladesh, as well as blue-chip securities, has been in a bearish mood. 

The Indian rupee fell to a new all-time low early today (May 9, 2022), trading beyond 77.40 per US dollar, driven by investors’ need for safety as China’s lockdowns, war on the outskirts of Europe, and fears of increased interest rates sent a fearful jolt through markets, according to NDTV.
