View on market: Volatility Prevails, Market is searching for better value
Asian markets rallied strongly, taking cues from a robust overnight performance on Wall Street, where technology stocks drove major indices higher. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq extended gains to hit fresh peaks, although the Dow Jones registered a slight decline. Technology shares remained the highlight, reflecting investor confidence in the sector. Meanwhile, Indian markets continued their upward trend for the second straight session, led by Reliance Industries and Infosys. Both the NSE Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex rebounded in the latter half of the trading session, showing resilience and renewed buying interest. Global investors are now looking ahead to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s upcoming speech and a series of economic data releases for further guidance on monetary policy and economic health. The overall sentiment across markets remains buoyant, driven by strong performances in key sectors and optimism about sustained economic recovery.
