Indian equity markets closed in the green for the third consecutive week due to decline in crude price as well as a bit of a recovery in Q2 FY19 earnings.
More than two-thirds of Nifty companies either met or beat their average estimate in the quarter-ended September. Including mid- and smallcaps, earnings are showing signs of strength, although base effect is seen in some companies. But on an average it is still strong.
With global macros now in favour of the broader market, US bond treasury yields are in correction mode and dollar index starting to correct, bulls are back in action. On the domestic front, cues are volatile due to five state elections and RBI board meeting on November 19.
Till the assembly polls verdict emerges, the market will stay rangebound with a positive bias. Among global cues, trends with respect to crude oil prices, dollar-rupee, trade war and Brexit will impact the market.
Nifty has strong support and resistance at 10,585-10,530 and 10,755-10,850 levels, respectively, this week.
