What Else For Share Market?
Ajay Bagga, Banking and Market Expert, told ANI, “US markets gave up gains and Asian markets are down this morning on the back of this uncertainty. Indian markets saw volatility reducing despite it being an expiry day. Stronger inflows, expectations of a good India GDP number later this evening and resilient domestic flows are making the outlook for the Indian markets optimistic, though the US policy chaos is an overhang on all risk markets for now. Hopefully, clarity will emerge by July on the tariff front and markets will start positioning for that in June itself.”
