A decisive NDA alliance victory in a big state like Maharashtra is sentimentally positive for the stock market. Also, Lok Sabha elections just got over, and the current central government has another full term to complete, so once state elections are over, markets' focus will shift back to earnings, budget, US policies, and geopolitics, said Manish Jain, director of the institutional business (equity & fii) division at Mirae asset capital markets.
Sustained inflation print, FPI outflows, strong dollar and tariff threats could sour the market mood. Adani issues won’t be able to affect general market mood for a sustained period, added Jain.
