MARKET COMMENT: Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services
Domestic economy is witnessing strong vigour and the same is assisting a steady growth in Indian equities. A 15.5% YoY increase in bank credits during August suggests that the economy is recovering rapidly. Due to rising food prices, domestic inflation figures are predicted to show a gradual rise from 6.7% in July which could add volatility in the short-term. Meanwhile, the world equity market is ignoring the fact that the Fed will retain its aggressive rate hike strategy given high levels of inflation assuming that much is factored in.
