Markets staged a smart recovery in second half! Here’s a recap through the market recap for the day

What moved market today?

After the heavy sell-off market showed signs of exhaustion and could bounce for the short to medium-term. Technically, the broad market is in the oversold territory and fundamentally valuations are just below the three-year average. A key reason for the current correction is selling by FIIs and a reduction in domestic buying. A drop in FIIs selling will be an important reason for the bounce. For this, the actions to be undertaken by FED and RBI in June will be an important factor. Moreover, we should note that the fiscal measure announced by the Indian government to control inflation is positive for the domestic market.

Apollo Hospitals drops 5% as reorganisation of pharma biz drags Q4 profit down 46% YoY

Shares of Apollo Hospitals Enterprises declined 4.5 per cent in early trade on Thursday after the hospital chain firm said its consolidated profit after tax (PAT) declined by 46 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 90 crore for the fourth quarter ended on March 31, 2022. The health care provider had reported a PAT of Rs 168 crore in the January-March quarter of 2020-21 fiscal. The decline in net profit was due to provision for capital gains tax of Rs 88.2 crore relating to the reorganisation of its pharmacy distribution business.

Rupee gains 3 paise to 77.52 against US dollar in early trade

The rupee appreciated 3 paise to 77.52 against the US dollar in the opening trade on Thursday as a positive trend in domestic equities and weak American currency overseas supported the local unit. However, rising crude oil prices in the international markets and continued foreign fund outflows kept the pressure on the domestic currency, forex traders said.

Market View: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

There are indications of market stabilising and consolidating around current levels. In the mother market, US, there is a strong view that the fears of recession are overdone. The S&P 500 bouncing back from the 19% correction from the peak is, perhaps, a message from the market that the steep correction is over.

For the Indian economy, elevated crude prices will continue to be a major headwind and sustained FPI selling, which can be expected to continue, will be a major hurdle for the market to rally.

Market trend continues to be uncertain and, therefore, what investors can do now is to buy high quality stocks for medium to long-term. Financials, particularly leading banks, are good buys for the medium to long-term.
