Dogecoin (DOGE) is facing a significant drop of over 10% on Tuesday amid broader market volatility. As of 12:42 PM IST, it is trading at $0.342, which represents a decline of 10.8% from the previous close.

In contrast, the realty and power sectors are under selling pressure, which could be attributed to broader market factors or sector-specific challenges.

Research analyst Tanushree Banerjee has highlighted a recurring pattern within the public sector banking space, particularly concerning loan write-offs and government bailouts. According to Banerjee, public sector banks are not new to the practice of resorting to such measures during periods of financial stress, especially when the credit cycle tightens and non-performing assets (NPAs) rise. Historically, whenever banks face significant NPAs, the government steps in to offer support, creating a cyclical pattern of bailouts. This situation often re-emerges every few years, as the broader economic conditions fluctuate. For investors, it is essential to stay informed about such patterns, as they could influence the stability and performance of public sector banks.
