“Volatility has re-emerged and investors have turned their focus on upcoming Fed policy in the backdrop of heightened US inflation. Fall in crude prices and reduction in FII selling added optimism to the domestic market while gloomy IT results, depreciating rupee and fear of global recession are restricting sizeable up move. In addition to the Fed policy, the domestic market’s near-term momentum will be influenced by ongoing quarterly earnings.”
Ajit Mishra, VP – Research, Religare Broking –
“Markets remained volatile but finally ended with modest gains, taking a breather after the recent dip. After the initial uptick, the benchmark hovered in a narrow range for most of the session however buying interest in select index majors in the last hour aided positive close in the index. Markets will first react to the banking major, HDFC Bank, numbers in early trade on Monday. Besides, the performance of the global indices especially the US markets and movement in crude will remain on participants’ radar. Amid all, we recommend continuing with a positive yet cautious approach till Nifty holds 15,900 and focusing more on stock selection.”
