Commenting on today’s market performance, Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Retail Research at Kotak Securities, said, “Markets snapped a 3-day losing streak on the back of short-covering as positive Asian cues aided recovery. Investors are jittery about the ongoing geopolitical tension in the Middle East and are cautiously making selective bets in an uncertain situation. Also, the Indian market is still expensive, and investors, especially foreign, are using global uncertainty to reduce their exposure in local shares.”
