Global trend weak, pressure on market:-
Vinod Nair, Head of Research, at Geojit Financial Services, says that after Diwali, consolidation in Indian stocks continued amid global uncertainty. The sharp decline in IIP growth and weak manufacturing PMI reflects global trends driven by higher interest rates and inflation. The weakness of the Indian rupee keeps FIIs cautious. However, the market’s decline is limited by strong earnings, economic stability, and inflows of domestic institutional investors. There is a potential reversal as October CPI inflation at the domestic level is expected to decline. Notably, public sector banks have been performing well due to strong credit growth, better asset quality, and strong balance sheets and this trend is expected to continue.
