View on market: Volatility Prevails, Market is searching for better value

Asian stock markets started the day with small gains as investors kept a close watch on trade talks happening in the United States. There is also hope that China may introduce new measures to support its economy, which added some positive mood to the markets. In India, stock markets fell for the second day in a row. Investors are worried about the increasing tension between India and Pakistan and chose to pull their money out. Even with the recent fall, Indian markets managed to close higher for the second straight week, showing some strength overall. In the United States, the mood was more positive. The S&P index continued its strong run, achieving its best winning streak since the start of the year. The Nasdaq index also climbed higher, mainly because large technology companies performed well. Despite worries around the world, US investors seemed confident, helping to push their markets higher for now.
