Market Outlook Today
"Mixed bag closing in the US market on Thursday and weak opening in Asian market, may open domestic bourses on a flat to positive note. Upbeat domestic economy data like strong GDP growth, impressive auto monthly sales data and robust Manufacturing PMI data will be positive for the market sentiment. European tech stocks decline after the Bloomberg reported that China plans to expand a ban on the use of iPhones in government-backed agencies and state companies," commented Chandan Taparia.
"Shares in Asia markets declined on impact of overnight fall in US market and a rally in the dollar index. Tech stocks slipped after reported that China ordered officials at central government agencies not to use iPhones and other foreignbranded devices for work. Focus on shipbuilding stocks on account of strong order booking. PSU Bank may be positive due to attractive valuation. Good opportunity to buy sugar stocks due to rising sugar price both in the domestic and international market," he further stated.
