Market Wrap Up for 7th April

Indian capital markets corrected on the last day of the week. Markets lost in the last trading hour on the news that post-demonetisation around 18 lakh bank accounts have been found where the amount deposited does not match with the income profile of the account holder. Nifty was not able to hold above the level of 9200. Market extended losses in mid-afternoon trade after hovering in negative terrain throughout the session triggered by worries of rising geopolitical tensions after US fired dozens of cruise missiles into Syria.

Overseas, European stocks edged lower as geopolitical tensions intensified after the US military struck a Syrian airfield near Homs and as investors exercised caution ahead of the non-farm payrolls report. Asian stocks were mixed. US President Donald Trump said he ordered the missile strikes following the deadly chemical attack that took place earlier in the week. US equities closed well off session highs yesterday, 6 April 2017, after Trump said he's willing to act alone on North Korea if China does not step up.

India: Growth Slow Down (A note on GDP)

According to recently released data GDP expanded a weak 5.7% annually in Q1 FY 2017, which was sharply below the 6.1% increase in Q4 FY 2016. All those analyst who were forecasting a healthy growth rate now are vanished and our finance minister is accepting that this is a matter of concern.

A strong rupee and confusion over the looming implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) likely weighed on the result.

What Macron’s Win In France Means For Emerging Markets And India

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.
