While RBI disappointed Indian Stock markets die hard bulls will be cheering the Fed for a 50 basis point cut in the interst rates. This would signal a bull rally for the medium term. Wallstreet expects a 50 basis point cut and the bulls are ready for a rampage even if the Fed meets expectations. In case of a 25 basis point cut there will be disappoinment but we do not see a major slump in the indices. We believe Mr.Bernake will not leave any stone unturned and will make use of the situation to the fullest.
Banks, Realty and Auto stocks were hit yesterday after RBI announced the monetary policy. Realty sector is living dangerously and we are not positive on the sector this year except for few stocks. We believe next month's budget will have pain in store for the sector. Textiles along with IT and Pharma might get the necessary boost.
Q3 performance of Corporate India is inline with expectations and given the fundamentals Indian stock market should be trading in a band till the next quarter. But markets always tend to think otherwise. With budget in the anvil next month we should see more action in the next F&O series in many stocks. We expect today's markets to trade in a band with no major cues and curiously waiting for the tomrorow's global event.
Few midcaps are slowly showing signs of pull back after heavily battered in the recent fall. Speculators will be back today with absolutely no cues hitting the Indian market.
