Pravesh Gaur believes that after the quarterly results, the market’s focus will be on the upcoming general budget and policy decisions of the Donald Trump 2.0 administration. He said that foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have been net sellers, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) have remained buyers. This kind of ‘struggle’ between FII and DII will continue in the future and will play an important role in giving direction to the market this week.
Ajit Mishra, Senior Research Vice President, Religare Broking, said that looking at the second week of the new year, many major developments can affect the market sentiment. Quarterly results will start with TCS. The trend of withdrawal of foreign institutional investors (FIIs) may reverse due to better results of the third quarter. Apart from this, investors will keep an eye on HSBC Services PMI and Industrial Production (IIP) data for further signals. On Friday, the rupee fell four paise and closed at an all-time low of 85.79 per dollar.
