Market sentiment was also bolstered after Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday unveiled an ambitious Rs 6 lakh crore National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP) that included unlocking value by involving private companies across infrastructure sectors. Nifty extended gains with Bank Nifty leading from front in recovery and the latter closed well above 36500. With Global central banks meeting lined up this Friday, markets are building expectation that current monetary easing may continue especially for emerging markets like India. For Nifty, last week high of 16700 still remains a key hurdle and move below 16550 may derail yesterday’s up move.
All three major US stock indexes edged up on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq closing at all-time closing highs on strong corporate earnings. Traders await a highly-anticipated speech by Fed Chairman Powell during the virtual Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday for more clarity on the Fed’s tapering timeline. Dollar slipped further as oil rallies, commodity currencies gain. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 30.55 points, or 0.09%, to 35,366.26, the S&P 500 gained 6.7 points, or 0.15%, to 4,486.23 and the Nasdaq Composite added 77.15 points, or 0.52%, to 15,019.80.
