Indian stock market — Sensex and Nifty — had a spectacular run in the past one year. From touching fresh all-time highs to multiplying investors money, the stock markets has been on roll. It had added Rs 51 lakh crore in Nifty m-cap and Rs 111 lakh crore in total BSE m-cap. The biggest contributors were IT stocks and banking stocks. “Samvat 2077 has been a rewarding year for equity investors in India and globally, despite headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic. Undoubtedly, the fiscal stimulus from governments and a soft monetary policy stance of global central bankers have acted as the key tailwinds for equities. Further, visible signs of an improvement in high-frequency key economic indicators, post the second wave of COVID, in the form of steady GST collection, railway freight, power consumption, import-export data, e-way bills among others have emboldened investors,” Reliance Securities said in a note.
The momentum in the market to continue in the new year, believed the analysts. “Going forward, as most global central bankers, including the US Federal Reserve, are considering a tapering of the soft monetary policy and abolishing the monthly asset purchase programme (US$120bn in the USA) in the coming months, a liquidity-driven market globally is likely to take a backseat in CY22,” it further added.
On Diwali, stock exchanges hold a customary one-hour trading session — Muhurat trading. It is believed that trading during Muhurat trading session will bring prosperity and abundance to investors throughout the year.
