Naveen Kulkarni, Chief Investment Officer, Axis Securities on Indian market:
Indian markets have opened in the green today on the back of a rally in the global equity markets due to various factors. This includes softer-than-expected wage growth in the US and commentary by Fed’s Evans on Friday, where he expects a slower rate increase by the US Fed, including a possibly 25 bps increase in the upcoming policy meeting. Additionally, further opening by both Hong Kong and China from the remaining Covid-related border controls, and kick-off in Q3 corporate earnings, where TCS is all set to announce their results today, are some of the other reasons for a green opening.
From a medium-term perspective, we believe the market will continue to remain volatile. The market direction will be determined by the upcoming result season, where we could see the first signs of earnings momentum weakening and the announcement of the Union Budget, scheduled on February 1, 2023.
