India: Growth Slow Down (A note on GDP)

What Macron’s Win In France Means For Emerging Markets And India As result of France’s presidential election has already been announced and Emmanuel Macron won the election defeating Le Pen. Emmanuel Macron is the youngest president in the history of France. As market was expecting the same and the positive rally was already in cashed that’s why market has not reacted unexpectedly after the results. If Le Pen would had won then definitely a sell off rally was expected. Macron has sounded pro-business, consistently talking about labour and tax reforms as well as infrastructure spending.
