MARKET COMMENT :: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

The dollar index slipping to 94.05 and the US 10-year yield slipping below 1.5 per cent can be interpreted as indicative of return of risk-on in equity markets. But news from China can turn out to be a drag. China is trying to limit the damage to its real estate sector without bailing out Evergrande. An inevitable consequence will be a slowdown of the Chinese economy which will have implications for commodity prices and currencies of commodity exporters.

Back home, India's exports are booming and are inline to touch the $400 billion mark in FY22. However, the surge in the trade deficit is weakening the INR. The IT segment is likely to be back in focus. Commodities, particularly metals, may come under pressure.
