Market View 15th September 2023

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

Strong economic data has stoked expectations that the Federal Reserve will be able to create a soft landing even if it maintains interest rates higher for longer, and Asian stocks are expected to follow suit. Australia, Japan, and Hong Kong all saw gains in their equity futures. Following advances on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 on Thursday as retail sales and producer prices topped forecasts, contracts for U.S. equities also increased. After China’s central bank reduced the amount of cash lenders must maintain in reserve for the second time this year, investors in Asia will be closely monitoring a flood of economic data coming out of the country today. WTI Crude prices were above the $90 level, while Brent Crude prices were trading above $93 per barrel. The yield on the 10-year U.S. bond was trading at 4.29% and Bitcoin was below 27,000-level. At 5:19 a.m., the GIFT Nifty, an early indicator of the Nifty 50 Index’s performance in India was unchanged 20,284.5.
