A soft inflation reading, especially in the US, led to the strong rally in the domestic and global markets as investors grew confident the Fed may wrap its rate hike cycle, which will also taper the hot treasuries. READ MORE

Comment :: 'Easing inflation to bring FPI flows back to India'
The market's strong gap-up jump in response to positive global cues on account of the softer than anticipated US and UK's inflation data, highlights the optimism for an end to the interest rate cycle, as evidenced by the ease in bond yields.
This is likely to draw FII flows into emerging markets, which is good for India considering the current better earnings season and the festive demand pick-up.
The drop in the CPI for India also improved the mood. The rebound was broad based with IT, realty, oil & gas, metal, and auto leading the way.
