Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services said, “The domestic market showcased a gradual rebound driven by the shift in focus towards upcoming US inflation and potential FED policy stance. The US political risk and recession fears may set near-term cautious sentiments in the global market. On the domestic front, a strong monsoon, and an expectation of an uptick in demand during festival season will drive investor sentiment.”
