Vinod Nair, Head of Research, at Geojit Financial Services said, “The actions of FIIs are dominating the current market momentum, which is backed by a weak set of earnings and expectations from Trump policy. The risk of further downgrades in Nifty earnings casts clouds over investor sentiment, while the IT sector continued to outperform due to the strong US dollar and in anticipation of a revamp in US IT spending. India is also looking forward to the CPI data with a muted view as food prices are likely to be higher on an MoM basis, essentially forging RBI to hold the interest rates in the short-term.”
