Market Closing Comment :: Sanjeev Zarbade, VP PCG Research, Kotak Securities

The major development during the week was the spike in geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, prompting the markets to nosedive in the first half of the week. However, as the tension between the two warring nations subsided over the next few days, the Sensex rebounded sharply thereafter from initial slump. Further, crude prices too cooled off after rising to as high as USD 70 per barrel. ONGC, Hero Motocorp and Bajaj Finance were among the top losers in the BSE-30 Index, while Ultratech Cement, TCS and HCL Technologies bucked the trend and emerged top gainers. On the economy front, the NSO expects FY2020 real GDP growth to decelerate to 5% from 6.8% in FY2019. FPIs bought equities worth US$105 million over the past five trading sessions while DIIs sold US$26 million worth of shares in the same period.

Global Markets check

World shares hit a record high on Friday as relief over the de-escalation of US-Iranian tensions prompted investors to bet on faster global growth, especially in the technology sector.

Japan’s Nikkei rose 0.44 per cent while Chinese shares slid a little but stood not far from their eight-month peaks.
