Stock Market View: Dr. V Okay Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.
The 8-day profitable streak in S&P 500 was halted by a barely hawkish assertion from the Fed chief Jerome Powell that “the Fed will not hesitate to tighten policy if needed.” The lingering concern that ‘the rates may remain higher for longer’ will proceed as a headwind for inventory markets for a while, however is unlikely to tug it down meaningfully. The Indian market texture signifies that the ‘buy on dips’ technique will proceed to work. In Samvat 2080, Financials are more likely to do effectively supported by engaging valuations and spectacular progress. Sustained FII promoting in financials, which is impacting the sector, will likely be solely non permanent. For traders with a 2-12 months time horizon, the main non-public banks and three or 4 PSU banks are good buys with good return potential.
The mid and small-cap rally is partly pushed by retail exuberance and for the reason that valuations on this broader market is excessive, traders must train some warning.
