Indian Economy - Tough times ahead
Indian economy after witnessing best of the times courtesy government stimulus, increased consumer spending, is ready to hit a road block soon in the form of another rate hike, global market correction.
Weak economic data indicators are pointing to a slide in the US economy. DStreet US market analyst Satish Bhogadi adds "We do not expect a double dip but there will be a considerable correction in the US equity markets. There will be no betterment in the current situation for the next 4 months"
Indian equity markets have done reasonably well outperforming rest of the crowd in the last 6 months. But dissecting the FII data reveals that the inflows have started slowing and might see some outflows in the coming day too. Having said that there is no second thought about the state of Indian markets from a medium and longer term perspective.
