Weekly financial Market Update Weekly Market Summary: The Market breadth closed positive at 1.13x Daily Commodity Price Watch Previous Current Daily (%) The expectation of bullish sentiment to push the laggard counters uptrend this week after the shift on Thursday and Friday last week, hit a snag as the equities market was severally browbeaten even amidst the signaling policy of the monetary authority, and improved 2018 earnings of some defensive counters. In a bid to trace the drags of the market from international front, we observed that increased the likelihood of a truce between the US and China has elevated expectation of stronger economic growth in the two countries as reflected the US Exchange positive performance. To domestic drags, uncertainties around fiscal policy stance to complement the monetary policy push for real sector driven growth is really less aggressive.
