It could be another dull day on the cards, at least in the initial hours, for markets on Wednesday as well. With the benchmarks ruling at all-time levels, fatigue seems to have set in for bulls due to lack of any positive triggers. Global markets also indicate a lacklustre day for benchmark indices, though some stock-specific action in mid- and small-cap space is likely to continue for some more time.
Analysts said though the market is flooded with liquidity, high valuation and relentless bull run keep the participants a little bit cautious. Unless some positive triggers come, the market is likely to move in a narrow range with profit taking to emerge on every rise.
The SGX Nify at 15,755 (8 am IST) indicates a flat opening for Nifty futures, which on Tuesday closed at 15,768.60. Most Asian-Pacific markets such as Japan, China, Taiwan, and South Korea are down marginally in early trade on Wednesday. However, Hong Kong, and Australia eke out narrow gains.
Overnight, the US stocks ended on mixed tone with Dow Jones and S&P 500 slipping less than 0.1 per cent even as Nasdaq edged up 0.3 per cent.
Economy to rebound
According to Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities, high-frequency economic indicators are showing early signs of a rebound as the second wave of Covid-19 cases ebbs. The turn, if it strengthens, will mean that the months of April-May were worst hit, with the economy set to rebound from June. The Nomura India Business Resumption Index, a weekly tracker of the pace of economic activity normalisation, rose for the week ended June 6 to 69.7 from 62.9 in the previous week, and 60.2 at its nadir.
"The advance decline ratio though in the positive, is falling and hence showing signs of profit taking across the markets. Sector rotation continues as does some specific stock rotation based on news and developments," he added.
Ruchit Jain, Senior Analyst - Technical and Derivatives, Angel Broking, said: "The market breadth continued to remain positive, however, a lot of sector rotation was seen since the banking space took a back seat. The defensive sectors witnessed buying interest with IT leading the momentum in the morning trade (on Tuesday), then some of the FMCG stocks witnessed interest and at the end, the Pharma stocks made a comeback. This indicates that while the uptrend continues, sometime correction/consolidation at the crucial juncture is seen and the momentum seems to be shifting to the above-mentioned sectors."
