FPIs pull out 34,843 cr from equities in Oct, turn net buyers last week
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) withdrew Rs 34,843 crore from Indian equities in October, marking the second consecutive month of heavy outflows, amid concerns over elevated crude oil prices, global interest rates and the corporate earnings outlook. However, foreign investors turned net buyers towards the end of the month, infusing around Rs 6,300 crore during October 26-30 compared to net outflows of nearly Rs 2,700 crore in the week ended October 23. According to data from the Central Depository Services Ltd (CDSL), FPIs withdrew Rs 35,861 crore in September. Before that, they had invested Rs 20,200 crore in July and Rs 29,631 crore in August.

Record oil imports reflect strong refinery runs, flexible Russian buying
India's crude oil imports surged to a record high of about 5.6 million barrels per day in October, with refiners stepping up purchases from the Middle East and Russia despite ongoing geopolitical tensions, according to data from energy intelligence firm Kpler. Middle Eastern supplies accounted for about 2.3 million barrels per day, and Russian crude flows remained strong at around 2 million bpd, Kpler lead analyst Nikhil Dubey said in a post. Higher ship-to-ship transfers helped move more crude through the Strait of Hormuz, supporting a recovery in Gulf supplies during September and October and giving Indian refiners greater flexibility in sourcing. Russian shipments could moderate in November and December as attacks in the Black Sea push up freight rates, making those barrels less competitive on a landed-cost basis. At the same time, Gulf suppliers are offering competitive delivered prices to regain market share in India, Dubey said. However, any renewed disruption to flows throug

AI bargains with AI: The next great bazaar
In the market, humans meet humans to buy, sell and make deals. The next great bazaar may be where our Al agents haggle for milliseconds Walk through any Indian bazaar and bargaining is de rigueur. The shopkeeper names a price with wounded dignity, the buyer laughs derisively, threatens to walk away, comes back, talks about another shop and, eventually, both parties settle somewhere between offence and satisfaction. The transaction seems purely economic, but it is also social, rich in stories and psychological and emotional, and very human.Now imagine if neither of them is human.Also read: E-commerce firms turn to AI to solve for Bharat during festive salesYour AI agent has already discovered the product, compared alternatives, checked reviews and decided what you are willing to pay. The seller's AI knows inventory, margins, demand and how badly it needs the sale. The two agents bargain for milliseconds, settle on a price and complete the transaction. You receive a message: Bought it. Saved you 12%.This is no longer science fiction. Personal agents such as Instinct, Meta's Muse and Open AI's Dots are moving AI from answering questions to doing things on our behalf, as you move from asking the AI to tasking the AI.Muse can browse, book and buy with permission. Instinct, which lives inside your WhatsApp, can arrange travel, buy groceries and manage subscriptions.Open AI's Dots are designed as always-on agents with their own cloud computers and access to connected applications. These are early steps towards what an agent really means: software to which we give agency.Also read: AI-aided gifting, self-love light up Zoomer DiwaliEra of negotiationThe next step is obvious. Why merely search and buy when the agent can negotiate? That possibility has moved from speculation to serious research. The Financial Times recently reported that Anthropic is consulting lawyers on how AI agents should negotiate for users, including prices, contracts and disputes.Experiments found that more aggressive agents sometimes got better outcomes, while cooperative ones occasionally gave up individual advantage to reach an agreement. Visa is already talking about usiness-to-AI commerce; more than half the business leaders it surveyed said they were ready for AI-to-AI negotiation.This could change commerce more profoundly than another shopping chatbot.First, the internet itself will have to change. Amazon, Flipkart, or a B2B procurement platform, is designed today to persuade humans. There are glossy pictures, seductive descriptions, stories, influencer videos, recommendations and carefully designed buttons. Machines care much less about romance. An agent wants structured facts: price, dimensions, warranty, delivery time, return policy, reliability, compatibility and perhaps the seller's willingness to negotiate.Two facesWebsites may therefore acquire two faces: one for humans, rich in stories and emotion, and another for machines, factual, structured and instantly comparable. Search engine optimisation gave us SEO. Agentic commerce may give us something like AEO: agent-engine optimisation. The next customer arriving at your website may never see the website.Bargaining itself becomes democratised. There are people who hate negotiating. A skilled agent could give an ordinary consumer some of the power previously available mainly to corporations and wealthy people - a tireless professional negotiator that knows when to push, when to walk away and what alternatives exist.But that creates a new inequality. What happens when my agent is smarter than yours? The wealthy have always hired better lawyers, brokers and advisers. If the richest people also subscribe to the most capable negotiating models, AI might not remove bargaining inequality but actually industrialise it.This is where John Nash and his famous work on game theory enter the bazaar. Game theory studies how rational actors behave when each person's outcome depends partly on what others do. A Nash equilibrium occurs when neither side gains by changing strategy alone.Human negotiators reach such equilibrium imperfectly, clouded by emotion, incomplete information and ego. AI agents could run thousands of strategies almost instantly.Collusion ConundrumBut there is a darker version. What if the buyer's agent and seller's agent learn that subtle cooperation is more profitable for both agents? Perhaps that is the choice ahead. Agents will increasingly represent us because, for many transactions, they will simply be better at it. They will know our budgets, preferences and histories, and eventually negotiate with other agents that know equally much about the other side.Algorithmic pricing has already raised concerns about tacit collusion. A world of autonomous negotiators makes the question sharper: whose interests are they really optimising?And then there is something less economic but perhaps equally important. Humans like shopping. We wander through bazaars, browse bookstores, discover things we did not know we wanted, argue over carpets and feel triumphant when a shopkeeper finally gives us he special price only for you. Shopping is not merely procurement. It is entertainment, discovery, status, ritual and human contact.If my agent buys my airline ticket, insurance policy and printer cartridge, I will probably be delighted. If it chooses every restaurant, negotiates every holiday and buys every gift, I may have outsourced not just inconvenience but part of life itself.Perhaps that is the choice ahead. Agents will increasingly repre-sent us because, for many transactions, they will simply be better at it. They will know our budgets, preferences and histories, and eventually negotiate with other agents that know equally much about the other side.The bazaar will not disappear. It may split in two. In one, humans will still wander, haggle, flirt with choices and occasionally overpay for the pleasure of the experience. In the other, invisible agents will negotiate billions of transactions at machine speed.For thousands of years, the market was where humans met humans to bargain. The next great bazaar may be where our machines meet instead.
