Global trends, crude oil prices, Q2 earnings to drive mkts in holiday-shortened week- Analysts

Domestic equity markets will be driven mainly by quarterly earnings, global trends, and the movement in crude oil prices in this holiday-shortened week, analysts said. Investors would also keep an eye on the Middle East amid the ongoing Hamas-Israel conflict and the trading activity of foreign investors. Markets will remain closed on Tuesday for Dussehra. “Global markets are currently fragile due to heightened attention on the rising US bond yield, global economic uncertainty, and also the geopolitical situation. These factors will be closely monitored, as they have the potential to influence market sentiment.

“Market participants will be closely watching the movement of the rupee against the dollar and crude oil prices, as well as investments by foreign institutional investors (FIIs) and domestic institutional investors (DIIs), during the results season,” Pravesh Gour, Senior Technical Analyst at Swastika Investmart Ltd, said. Markets may face volatile trends amid monthly derivatives expiry on Thursday. This week is a holiday-shortened one and we expect volatility to remain high due to the prevailing earnings season and scheduled expiry of October month derivatives contracts, Ajit Mishra, SVP – Technical Research at Religare Broking Ltd, said.
