VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said the market holiday on Wednesday shielded Indian equities from the mild turbulence seen in global markets.
“Today, the scenario is different, with stability returning to markets. In the coming days, the focus of the market will be the developments in the US Supreme Court, which is hearing the petition against Trump tariffs,” Vijayakumar said.
“Observations by some judges that ‘President Trump had overstepped his authority’ is a significant development. If the final judgement goes in line with these observations, there will be major volatility in markets, with emerging markets, particularly India, which has been targeted for a steep 50 per cent tariff, rallying smartly,” Vijayakumar added.
