Pre Open Thoughts: Testing Times Continues!!!
Ø Things change for the better when we take responsibility for our own thoughts, decisions and actions. All eyes will be on Mint Street – RBI’s headquarters. Whether the central bank does the unthinkable by cutting repo rate or opts for status quo is anybody’s guess. Here again, the element of suspense will ensure a nervous start.
Ø Asian markets are mostly mixed. US stocks closed with slender gains as did their European counterparts. Global markets seem to be consolidating as old worries return to haunt investors.
Ø The markets will of course rejoice if the RBI does lower its key lending rate. According to our systems as long as the Nifty holds above 5175-5170 levels the uptrend is not in any danger. A move past 5350 could accentuate the buying momentum.
Ø The rise in bond yields and continued depreciation in Indian rupee against a US dollar too playing on mind of investors and keeping them on tenterhooks.
Ø Things are expected to be slightly choppy going into F&O expiry next week . On the whole, things should be volatile. Staying away from the market action for few days won’t do you much harm.
