The domestic equity markets are expected to extend gains following the strong showing of the Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the state elections — a crucial precursor to the general elections in May.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The BJP decisively secured victories in three of the four key states — Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh.<\/p>\n
While the battles in these three states were closely contested, the scale of the BJP’s triumph has surprised many, heightening expectations for regime continuity in 2024 — a positive catalyst for the markets.<\/p>\n
“The market will perceive the election results positively due to the unexpected three-state win.<\/p>\n
“While there was anticipation of a BJP victory, the extent of winning three states exceeded Street expectations.<\/p>\n
“The initial reaction typically involves expressions of disappointment or excitement, followed by a return to fundamentals and global market dynamics.<\/p>\n
“With positive global indicators, the momentum is likely to continue.<\/p>\n
“We anticipate a Santa Claus rally, which now has more legs,” said Andrew Holland, chief executive officer, Avendus Capital Public Markets Alternate Strategies.<\/p>\n
Last week, the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) Nifty recorded their biggest weekly advances in five months.<\/p>\n
On Friday, the Nifty surpassed its previous record high from September.<\/p>\n
“With the ruling party securing wins in three states, we see celebratory market activity.<\/p>\n
“However, this optimism may be short-lived, and market trends will once again be guided by global developments,” noted Ambareesh Baliga, an independent equity analyst.<\/p>\n
On Friday, the Nifty closed at 20,268, surpassing its previous closing high of 20,192 on September 15.<\/p>\n
he Sensex concluded at 67,481, slightly below its record closing high of 67,839, also recorded on September 15.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the market capitalisation of NSE-listed companies exceeded the $4 trillion mark for the first time on Friday, reaching Rs 334.7 trillion ($4.02 trillion).<\/p>\n
Global markets registered their biggest monthly gain in three years in November, propelled by a sharp decline in US bond yields.<\/p>\n
Investors are betting that the US Federal Reserve has concluded its interest rate hikes and will soon begin lowering rates.<\/p>\n
