Bulls staged a roaring comeback today after Monday’s rout as benchmark indices clocked their biggest intra-day gain since May 20 amid broad-based buying across sectors.

15:30 (IST) 30 Aug 2022 Investors capitalise ‘buy on dips’ opportunity given by Monday’s rout
“The Indian market performance showed resilience in the last two months, with the Nifty 50 recovering by 15% from the bottom (since 17th Jun’22) till Friday. The Mid and Small Cap indices, too, recovered by 20%/16% for the same period. The recovery was on account of positive FII flows and a robust earning season. Additionally, a normal monsoon, cool-off in commodity prices, and healthy wage growth (especially in the Services sector) have boosted confidence in the robust festival demand. The current level of India’s VIX is below the long-term average, indicating the market is in a neutral zone (Not in a panic or exuberance zone). The current setup is a ‘buy on dips’ market, and today investors have well capitalized on the opportunity given after yesterday’s correction, providing a good entry point. Investors should use such dips in a phased manner to build a position with a view of 12-18 months in quality companies, where the earnings visibility is very high.”

09:54 (IST) 30 Aug 2022 Metal markets are now looking at the upcoming U.S. payrolls data this week
“Gold and silver prices recovered from their morning lows on Monday, as the dollar retreated from a 20-year peak, although hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve still weighed on the market. Slight weakness in the greenback helped bullion prices gain on Monday. The dollar retreated against the euro on expectations that the European Central Bank will tighten the monetary policy more aggressively than initially thought. But the outlook for the yellow metal is severely depressed by the prospect of higher U.S. interest rates.”
“Metal markets are now looking at the upcoming U.S. payrolls data this week. Strength in the jobs market is likely to give the Fed much more room to hike interest rates aggressively. Gold has support at $1738-1726, while resistance is at $1756-1770. Silver has support at $18.55-18.40, while resistance is at $19.05-19.22. In INR terms gold has support at Rs 50,850–51,040, while resistance is at Rs51,520–51,740. Silver has support at Rs 53,850-53,440, while resistance is at Rs 54,880–55,310.”

However, it is important to appreciate the fact that valuations in India are high. Nifty is trading around 20 times forward earnings. MSCI India is trading at 100% premium to emerging market rivals.

“Markets are likely to shrug off overnight slump in the US markets and mirror the gains seen in most of the Asian pack. While domestic equities may start on a positive note, the market remains obsessed with the hawkish Fed rhetoric. With the Fed and other central banks across the globe trying to rein on inflation desperately, it’s going to be a tough call to take bullish bets on any excessive strength from hereon. Technically, Nifty has the biggest make-or-break support at 17161 mark. However, the first signs of an interim top will be seen if Nifty slips below 17161 mark. Confirmation of strength on Nifty is above the 17757 mark.”
