“The Indian market witnessed a sharp fall during the final hours of today’s trading. The robust US job data for January indicates that the expected rate cuts from the Fed in the coming year may be less imminent. This is reflected in the recent sharp climb in US bond yields to above 4% levels, which prompted investors to book profit from the post interim Budget rally amidst elevated valuations. However, the current drop in crude prices, provides support and restrains the decline.”

Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services
The global construct for equity markets continues to be good with the mother market US doing well aided by a surprisingly strong economy. The latest data on job creation in January has again surprised with the addition of 3,53,000 jobs. There are no signs of the US economy tipping into a mild recession any time soon. This means that the Fed rate cuts expected this year are likely to be back-loaded. This has pushed up the 10-year bond yield again above 4% and the dollar index to 104. This might prompt some selling by FIIs. But the market momentum is good supported by strong DII and retail buying.
Among the recent results Tata Motors and Interglobe Aviation stand out and these stocks have more room to go up. RIL also is exhibiting strength.”
