FII Buying Lifts Market

After a long time, the FIIs were net buyers today and FII buying lifted the market sentiments. The Nifty 50 closed at 15990, up 179 points or 1.13 percent. Furthermore, Nifty broke the 15800 level with a comfortable margin, which had been the biggest hurdle to pass. The market shrugged off inflation and growing interest rate concerns to conclude the day with significant gains.

Nobody knows whether today’s FII action is an outlier or why FIIs suddenly became net buyers today. And it remains to be seen how long they will continue to be net buyers. Though one rumor going around is that dropping commodity prices may benefit the corporate bottom line, and the market expects to see this in Q2 earnings. Surprisingly, only FIIs saw the benefits of lowering commodity prices!

Similarly, as noted earlier, the drop in oil and commodity prices undoubtedly helps to ease inflationary fears, but if the reduction in oil and commodity prices is because of concerns about economic slowdown, then it could also limit the current stock market rally.

Further, the windfall tax imposed on oil companies last week continued to hurt ONGC, Oil India and Reliance Industries. Windfall tax on oil.
