📈 Resilience and Recovery: Markets Eye Consumption and Macro Data

The Indian economy is turning the tide, with private consumption and agriculture leading the recovery, according to the RBI's State of the Economy report. However, foreign investors remain cautious due to expensive valuations and global uncertainties, redirecting funds to other regions like China.

Domestically, market volatility persists with factors like elections, geopolitics, and poor corporate earnings contributing to uncertainty. Meanwhile, the recent Adani saga has shaken investor confidence. Despite these challenges, domestic investors continue to anchor the markets, while key promises in the BJP’s Mahayuti manifesto could spur optimism in real estate, infrastructure, and consumption sectors.

Stock markets are likely to cheer the potential harmony between states and the center as BJP and its allies hold power in more states now than they did in 2019. Some specific promises made in the Mahayuti manifesto is likely to boost both blue-chip indices like Nifty 50 and Sensex, as well as individual stocks in real estate, infrastructure, and consumption space when the markets open for trade on Monday.
