The BSE benchmark Sensex 30 has rallied 12.7 per cent or 9,349 points and has been quoting at all-time highs in recent days. Similarly, the NSE Nifty 50 index has surged 13.7 per cent and is hovering around 25,400 levels for the first time in its life-time.

The next three months are likely to be very significant with big ticket triggers including the first US Fed rate cut since March 2020 likely tomorrow followed by other policy decisions by other global bankers, including the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Other big triggers include how the US and China economies continue to grow, and the US Presidential elections.
