Market breadth displayed a positive trend within a narrow trading range, with attention focused on the RBI’s upcoming monetary policy announcement tomorrow. Expectations lean towards the likely status quo in the repo rate due to prevalent inflation worries. Meanwhile, the broader market has shown resilience in select sectors like banks in anticipation of decent Q4 results and exports based on composite PMI data reflecting strong business conditions.

Closing Bell: Sensex, Nifty end at fresh all-time highs; Vedanta jumps 4%, Dabur falls 5%
From the beginning of 2024, Gold has been on a strong footing, having risen by ~6% as against the broader equity market ( Nifty 500) returning only ~4%. The slew of elections lined up in this fiscal year bodes well for Gold. The reason being that during times of uncertainties, investors tend to park their money in safer asset classes. As a lot of countries go into elections this year, Gold would likely remain in the spotlight. Not to mention, the strong institutional buying that Gold has witnessed over the past few years which in turn provides a solid support to this asset class.

RBI Policy Preview | Shraddha Umarji, Economist Institutional Research at Prabhudas Lilladher
Reserve Bank of India will likely keep repo rate unchanged at 6.5%. Stance will also be unchanged for better transmission of the delivered rate hikes (of 250 bps so far). Right now, food inflation is high so the biggest risk going ahead is monsoon. IMD has forecast normal monsoon for the year, so timely kharif sowing can bring down food inflation. Till then, RBI is unlikely to cut interest rates. The central bank will also take cues from what Fed and ECB are doing when it comes to rates. So it is unlikely that rate cuts will happen before October. However, RBI could change its stance to ‘neutral’ in June or August. Meanwhile, GDP growth for FY25 might be revised upwards to 7.3-7.4% from 7% earlier as all macroeconomic data has been robust.

Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services
Global and domestic cues indicate that the market is likely to consolidate in the coming days and start responding to Q4 results as they start coming. So, Q4 results will be the next major trigger for the market from a sectoral and stock-specific perspective. Market expects good results from autos, capital goods, telecom and select pharmaceuticals. Financials,too, will report good results despite some NIM compression and, therefore, are likely to be favoured by investors. IT results will be tepid and, therefore, the management commentary will be more important than the results. Even though valuation comfort in banking is in PSU banks, private sector majors are likely to deliver superior returns from a two/year perspective.

Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities
Markets are seen trading higher in early trades owing to overnight gains in US markets after US Fed chairman Jerome Powell said in a speech that he still sees interest rate cuts later this year. However, intra-day caution may prevail ahead of RBI policy announcement on Friday and global factors such as rising oil prices and FIIs offloading local shares amid uptick in US bond yields. Technically, Nifty’s price has receded from its record high of 22530 mark, but history suggests a significant breakout could be next. The line in the sand is at Nifty’s support at 22021 mark, while intraday support for the index is seen at 22339 mark.
