Crude oil, West Asia situation likely to drive stock market this week

Market investors would track any implications arising from US President Donald Trump signing the Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, with crude oil and geopolitical developments remaining the key driving trends for equities this week, analysts said. Besides, trading activity of foreign investors and trends in global markets would also be tracked, they added. "Indian equities enter the coming week with crude oil, global bond yields and geopolitical developments likely to remain the main drivers of sentiment.

Fed decision, inflation, oil may drive markets in holiday-shortened week

The US Fed interest rate decision, domestic inflation data, crude oil prices and development in West Asia would be the major drivers for stock market movement in a holiday-shortened week ahead, analysts said. Equity markets would remain closed on Monday for Ganesh Chaturthi. "Globally, developments in the US-Iran conflict and movement in Brent crude will remain critical market drivers. This week will be dominated by the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy decision and commentary on the future path of interest rates," Ajit Mishra, SVP of Research at Religare Broking, said. On the domestic front, August WPI and CPI inflation data, followed by unemployment and balance of trade data, will remain in focus, he said. "The immediate focus will be on US inflation and the Federal Reserve's policy decision.
