Market Outlook Today
"Dovish statement by the US Fed Chairmen and highlighted moderate growth in the US economy along with strong openings in the Asian markets may open domestic market on a positive note. The US Fed Chairman said that the additional increases in interest rate will depend on incoming economy data. The Fed raised interest rates by 25bps to the highest level in 22 years in the range of 5.25% - 5.50% which is in line with expectation. Asian equity futures were mixed after the Federal Reserve hiked interest rates to a 22-year high and indicated that further tightening would be "data dependent." Contracts for Japan fell slightly, those for Australia were little changed and Hong Kong Index. In the domestic markets, Gift Nifty surged 0.5% while US Futures are witnessing a mixed bag. However, intra-day volatility may not be ruled on account of July series F&O expiry today," said Chandan Taparia.
