US economy, geopolitics: Factors that could roil markets next quarter

With the rupee weakening against the US dollar, a more hawkish pivot by RBI is expected

Latest bout of correction notwithstanding, the benchmark Nifty 50 index is set for its best quarterly show in one year. With one trading session left, the Nifty is currently up 7.5 per cent in the third quarter of 2022. The index had gained 15 per cent during the quarter, but it has given up nearly half of the gains as the surging US dollar and Treasury yields have triggered  turmoil in risky assets. Volatility is expected to continue during the last quarter of the calendar.
