Weekly Market Outlook : Indian Market Ends Higher After Volatile Week, US Tariff Relief Says Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services
Below the Quote on Weekly Market Outlook by Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited
"The Indian market finally closed with a positive bias after a very volatile week, aided by an unexpected pause on reciprocal tariffs by the US providing relief in the midst of uncertainty. Sectors like IT, metals, and capital goods saw a relief rally in expectation of an improvement in the near-term outlook. However, the intensity of the US-China trade war will be crucially viewed by the market, which can have the potential to offset the impact of the current pause on trade tariffs on other emerging markets. On the other hand, the market has entered the result season with a subdued expectation. The initial results from the IT major acknowledge the impact of trade tensions and expect a delay in discretionary spending.
The focus will be on the outcome of the ongoing bilateral trade negotiations between India and the US, which will add more colour to the trade potential of the domestic market. The supportive domestic environment with an ease in interest rates and a benign inflation trajectory is encouraging investors to have a balanced portfolio to aid for a better risk-reward in the long term. Looking ahead, we expect inflation is likely to moderate further on account of cooling food prices and would give room for RBI to remain accommodative. We expect caution is likely to prevail due to the holiday-led truncated week."
