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

Asian stock markets opened higher on Tuesday, tracking gains in the US, where retail sales data eased recession concerns. Japan, Australia, and South Korea saw early increases, while Hong Kong was expected to follow. The positive momentum came after Wall Street closed higher, with the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq all rising as investor confidence improved. Strong consumer spending in the US helped ease fears of an economic slowdown, encouraging global markets. India’s stock market also rebounded on Monday after a two-day decline. Both the Nifty and Sensex ended higher, reflecting the broader optimism seen worldwide. Investors were encouraged by gains in global equities and renewed confidence in China’s economy, which further supported market sentiment. Overall, markets responded positively to economic data, signaling optimism about future growth. While uncertainties remain, improved consumer spending and hopes for stability in major economies have contributed to the current uptrend in equities across different regions.
