Speaking about Monday’s performance, Vinod Nair, head of research, Geojit Financial Services said, “The domestic market sustained its upward momentum, with a reduction in US PCE inflation raising hopes for a rate cut by the FED in September. This optimism contributed to the strong performance of IT stocks. We anticipate this trend will persist in the near term due to expectations of a rebound in discretionary spending. Investors are now focusing on upcoming US job data and the Fed Chair’s speech for further indication on interest rates.”

Ajit Mishra – SVP, research, Religare Broking said, “The markets began the week positively, gaining nearly half a percent, extending the ongoing uptrend. Starting flat, the Nifty gradually climbed and nearly reached Friday's highs, closing at 24,123.35 levels. Sector-wise, there was a mixed trend with IT, financials, and metals showing decent gains, while energy and realty dipped about half a percent. The broader indices performed well, with both midcap and smallcap indices gaining approximately 1.5% each.”.
