In the past six years – from Samvat 2066 (calendar year 2010) – when the Nifty50 index surged nearly 23%, the markets have seen positive returns on four other occasions with the benchmark indices rallying between 9% - 27%. On two occasions, however, they ended weak.
Though analysts caution that markets are likely to remain volatile in Samvat 2073, they say outcome of the US Presidential elections; strategies adopted by the global central banks; corporate earnings growth in India; commodity prices, especially crude oil; and the progress on reforms, including tackling geopolitical concerns are some of the key factors that will have a bearing on the overall market sentiment.
