Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services, noted the transition in market sentiment as the pre-election trading strategy.
He said, “The pre-election trading strategy has come to an end, and all eyes will be on the release of the exit poll for further action. Regional diversions, marginally low voter turnout and strong resistance at current range are prompting investors to adopt a cautious stance.”
He added, “They are aligning their investments towards fundamentally strong sectors & stocks to safeguard against any abrupt reactions in the market. On the global front, the release of inflation data from the US, which are estimated to be high, could sway global market sentiment in the near-term.”
