It was a really impressive performance by the Indian stock markets. Corrections upto five percent are a part of any bull rally. Tomorrow, global factors will dictate the Sensex and Nifty more than domestic factors. Turkey and its issues can last for a few days to a few weeks. Turkey is too small for global financial markets. Sector churning will be there globally due to Turkey. US dollar Index is over brought. Euro and pound have not fallen much against the US dollar. Spot gold price fell below $1200 for the first time after a many months. Investors and traders are either sitting on cash or are fence sitters. For the past few months I have seen that Monday’s trend has been fake for the global financial markets. I hope that today’s trend is also not the actual trend for the week. Rupee nosedived on short covering and option covering. Value date is for Thursday due for holiday on Wednesday. Importers were forced to cover their near term payables.
