Both indices continue to trade at record levels, fueled by a bullish trend driven by increased foreign inflows into Indian equities.
Experts attribute this bull run primarily to the high Foreign Institutional Investors (FII) inflows and are optimistic that if these inflows continue, the markets will sustain their upward momentum. "Indian markets are primed for a further run up on the back of the massive FII inflows of Friday and benign global cues. However, the caution comes from the overbought nature of the markets, with flows boosting valuations further.
Asian markets are mixed, with Japan closed for a holiday. Indian stock futures are indicating a strong start to today, but the overbought levels indicate some profit booking will emerge. However, if FII allocations remain robust, that will be absorbed and markets will continue their onwards journey" said Ajay Bagga, Banking and market Expert.
