According to reports, fears of global recession and a surge in Covid-19 infections in China led to decline in Indian equity benchmarks and Asian Markets.
According to Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd says, "In the absence of any major trigger, we expect markets to move sideways with support base buying at lower levels. Capital goods, construction and infra sector should be in focus with improvement in project ordering activity and also interest in the space ahead of upcoming union budget. Also, Oil & Gas and sugar sectors are likely to stay in focus after the positive news flow."
