Stocks To Watch Today: Indian equity markets are well positioned to make a good start to the week, supported by robust global cues. GIFT Nifty futures rose 57 points to be trading at 24,955 at 7:56 AM, suggesting a strong start in the mainboard indices of the domestic bourse. Are you well placed to ride on this optimistic feeling?
The bullish move comes after a sharp gain in the US Wall Street, where the head of the Federal Reserve Board, Jerome Powell, has shown the potential interest rate cut within a month. The investor sentiment improved as a result of his remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium that pushed the Dow Jones to a new high, 1.89%. The S&P 500 increased by 1.52% and the Nasdaq by 1.88%.
This momentum has been similar across Asian markets. Japanese Nikkei 225 gained 1.08%, South Korean Kospi gained 0.75%, and the Australian S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.87%. In the meantime, Shanghai Composite was up 0.64%.
Investors around this region will also be paying attention to CPI data released in Singapore in July, which could add further information on inflationary tendencies and monetary policy thinking.
Now that it is a new trading week, how are you modifying your investment strategy in view of these global developments? Remaining updated and nimble may be vital in the future days ahead.
