Market View 5th September 2023

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

As traders shift their attention back to China’s efforts to reverse its economic slump following the closure of U.S. markets for the U.S. Labor Day weekend, Asian stocks are expected to open lower on Tuesday. Futures in Australia and Japan suggest that shares will decline on Tuesday, and the Hang Seng index in Hong Kong, which increased by about 3% on Monday before trimming gains, is also expected to decline. That follows the failure of European markets to offer investors a significant lead, with the Stoxx 600 indicator finishing little changed in light trading after climbing as much as 0.8% earlier. Oil futures remained at nine-month highs as a result of hopes that the OPEC+ group would reduce its crude production. West Texas Intermediate and Brent crude were both trading above the $85 level. The yield on the 10-year U.S. bond was trading at 4.18% and Bitcoin was below 26,000-level. At 5:23 a.m., the GIFT Nifty, an early indicator of the Nifty 50 Index’s performance in India was unchanged at 19,622.
