Strong global cues
Strong global cues is one of the prime reasons for net purchases in Indian stocks. In fact, US indices like the Dow Jones are now a few per centage points away from hitting record highs.
The Sensex too has now crossed the 40,000 points mark and much of the gains seen from record lows is due to the rally in IT stocks like TCS and Infosys. Apart from this Reliance Industries is one stock that has helped propel the indices very close to record highs, from the March lows.
Foreign Portfolio Investors would continue to buy into Indian stocks, as long as global cues are strong. With the sharp rally in stocks, the risk to reward ratio for buying is now not too favourable.
