Except for today’s depreciation, the Indian Rupees has remained quite steady even though the dollar index rose. Also when the US 10-year bond yields has spiked sharply India’s 10-year bond yield has remained quite stable. These two factors could act in India’s favour and help Indian equities outperform its peers in the emerging markets, said Rusmik Oza, executive vice president, head of Fundamental Research at Kotak Securities.

The recent correction could be due to rising COVID-19 cases and year-end phenomenon wherein retail and HNI investors would have avoided taking any fresh positions, he said, adding that the start of a new settlement for FY22 and forthcoming Q4 earnings seasons could be the reasons for fresh investor interest in stocks.

US markets, especially the Dow Jones and S&P 500 are showing a firm uptrend due to the ongoing stimulus and faster vaccination drive which could also be one of the reasons for our markets to inch upwards, Oza noted.

Elsewhere in Asia, bourses in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo, and Seoul ended on a positive note. Stock exchanges in Europe were also trading with significant gains in mid-session deals.

Meanwhile, the global oil benchmark Brent crude was trading 0.49 percent lower at USD 64.60 per barrel.
