Turning hesitant

India Infoline Research Team / 08:47 , Feb 10, 2012

“The serenity of mind, gentleness, silence, self-restraint, and the purity of mind are called the austerity of thought.”
- Bhagavad Gita

After a lot of wrangling, Greek political parties have reached a deal on new austerity measures necessary to secure international aid and avert a default. But, the Greek parliament needs to ratify the economic reforms. The news was confirmed by ECB President Mario Draghi, who left interest rates unchanged. Investors will continue to keep close tabs on events out of the euro area (Greece in particular).

The Bank of England kept rates steady but expanded the size of its QE program. The US labour market conditions continue to improve ever so slightly. The opening today will be lower as Asian markets are mostly in the red. US stocks closed with slender gains as did their European counterparts.

December IIP print is seen between 2.5% to 3.5%. This is slower than November’s reading of 5.9%. However, the markets may not get swayed much as the IIP data generally has been quite erratic. Globally, equities have got off to a strong start in 2012. So, don’t be surprised if market players turn a little hesitant in pushing stocks much higher.
