Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services said, “Positive US jobless claims data eased the fears of recession and provided a favourable broader market reaction. The IT index outperformed in expectation of improved spending. Though the sentiment is gaining traction, a lack of fresh triggers and subdued earnings will be a deterrent to higher valuation. To safeguard the sentiment, investors are advised to shift their focus from growth stocks to value stocks.”
