The thought of Friday the 13th need not worry you. The start today is likely to be a good one, thanks in part to the continuation of the global rally. Infosys will be in the spotlight. More than the Q4 results, market and analysts will focus on its FY13 guidance.

IIP data has been pretty erratic, raising doubts about the accuracy of the numbers. Even the RBI governor had expressed his exasperation about the wild fluctuations in IIP data. But, the sharp downward revision in January IIP numbers has stunned most people. Some time ago, the Government had revised its exports figures as well. The reliability of economic statistics is under serious threat. Still, the downbeat IIP numbers have increased the odds of a rate cut on April 17.

Stock indices in the US and Europe surged while most Asian markets are higher this morning. China’s GDP grew by 8.1% in Q1 CY12 vs. 8.9% in Q4 CY11, lower than consensus estimate. South Korea has left rates steady. North Korea’s rocket launch has reportedly failed. Singapore’s economy did well in Q1. Spanish premier says his country will not need a bailout.
