Equichain Wealth Advisors: Market View & Strategy

F&O expiry for January series due this week in a holiday shorten week, Indian market will be trading for only 3 days this week as Friday will be holiday for Republic Day and soon after that focus will shift to Vote-On-Account, Mini-budget on 1-Feb-24.  ICICIBANK result is in-line with market estimate with NIM at 4.43% Vs 4.53% in previous quarter.  ICICBANK result is better than street estimate and no major concern seen as compared to HDFCBANK.

We remain cautious optimistic as we see many stocks are fairly valued and focus will clearly shift to budget due on 1-Feb-24.  Market will react positively to successful PRAN PARTHISTHA ceremony of RAM MANDIR as focus will now shift to budget and election.  

We would also be focusing on booking part profit and shifting to stocks which are valued attractively.   We remain open to review our allocation strategy based on incoming data and we do not rule out profit booking post budget on 1-Feb-24.

Equichain Wealth: Market View & Strategy

We believe it’s time to book profit and reduce exposure, with Q1FY24 result season to begin from 2nd week of July, market will focus on final F&O expiry and global cues.  We have reduced our exposure around 75%, but will continue to maintain allocation around 70% on lower side and 85% on higher side.  

Going into final F&O expiry for June series, we expect market to correct / consolidate at lower level which could provide fresh entry opportunity.
