How PSUs have performed recently

PSU banks have been rallying for the last few months, on the back of an improvement in financials. They are now growing faster than their peers and are fiercely competing with their private sector counterparts.

However, valuations are now steep and higher than normal. Therefore, any correction in the overall market results in a similar correction in the sector.

As a result, the Nifty PSU Bank index is down by 3.2% over the last five days, compared to a 1% decline in the Sensex.

It has witnessed a few lows due to overall correction in the market and due to higher-than-normal valuations of PSU Banks.
