Indian stock indices have now risen for three successive weeks by steady FII inflows and amid expectations of some reforms going through. A surprise drop in inflation for July also raised hopes of a possible rate cut at next month’s RBI policy meeting. Data on indirect tax receipts and SEBI’s measures to boost the capital markets also had a positive rub-off on the markets. However, data on exports and imports continues to be grim, serving as a cruel reminder of challenges emanating from the overseas markets. The release of the controversial CAG reports in the Parliament also re-ignited fears of a wider political backlash. Technically, the ongoing liquidity-powered up trend may continue for a while before there is any meaningful pullback. Much will hinge on the way global markets unfold. With the US economy showing resilience, the focus will be on the eurozone and China. The current global risk-on trade has been fueled by hopes of fresh policy stimulus from both these regions. Any disappointment on that front could lead to a reversal.
