Stock Market Today: Good news for the equity markets

Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, Dr. V. K. Vijayakumar said there are indications that the global equity markets, led by the U.S., its mother market, are emerging from their fears of a banking contagion. The absence of additional bank failures or significant systemic stress is good news for the equities markets. Because the Nifty valuations are now acceptable, FIIs have started buying in the past two days. Since the market is oversold, a tactical rally and short-covering may occur in the near future. A persistent rally, however, is improbable since FIIs will once more turn sellers at higher levels. Market activity will be heavily influenced by data and news in the coming days.

Regulators from all across the world have acted firmly, which has increased confidence that the economy won’t be destroyed by the current problems facing banks. Traders have also started making significant bets that the Federal Reserve will soon need to lower interest rates. After a year of constant rate increases, such reductions would be welcome.
