Future direction of the market…
Friends, the Federal Reserve of America has chosen to follow the path of India and not Europe and Canada. The US Federal Reserve has also not changed the policy rate like India’s central bank RBI. Along with this, the US Fed indicated the possibility of cutting the policy rate only once this year. On the other hand, the Reserve Bank of India has kept its repo rate unchanged at 6.50% from February 2023 onwards. In contrast, last week Canada and the European Central Bank signaled to the world by cutting interest rates. One thing that is clear after the Fed policy announcement is that everyone from Delhi to Washington wants to continue the fight against inflation. The US Federal Reserve has once again left interest rates unchanged. Inflation has continued to fall in recent months, but has indicated that They are expected to cut their benchmark interest rate only once this year. In the coming days, the Indian stock market will be watching the important 100-day performance of the NDA government as well as the new government’s cabinet allocations and upcoming plans. So, in the absence of any unexpected factors in the next week, volatility can be seen in Sensex and Nifty. The market will focus on the positive factors of monsoon after the election results.
