    Sensex, Nifty open flat with negative bias; Divi’s Labs, IndusInd Bank top gainers

    Equity benchmarks BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty opened today’s session flat with a negative bias. Sensex is at 65,484, while Nifty is at 19,379. Divi’s Labs, IndusInd Bank are the top gainers, while HDFC twins are the top losers.

    Please see below the morning view on the market from Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.

    The 15 % surge in Nifty from the low levels of March has given a bullish flavour to this rally; but it is difficult to describe this as a bull market since valuations do not permit a sustained rally and the evolving economic fundamentals do not warrant continuation of the rally much beyond the current levels.

    A sustained bull run needs low valuations and steadily improving growth and earnings prospects. Valuations are not favourable now and growth and earnings prospects, though good, are not very bright. For instance, the June auto sales numbers came below expectations and indicate that sluggish demand remains a problem, particularly for price sensitive mass consumption products. The economic recovery continues to be ‘K’ shaped as indicated by the resilient demand for premium products.

    There is valuation comfort in financials, particularly the leading private sector banks. Leading PSU banks are attractively valued compared to their private sector peers. FY24 Q1 results of the banking majors will be good.
