Developments Shaping The Market

• Middle East Conflict: The Middle East conflict finally seems to be coming to an end. On Thursday, US President Donald Trump signalled that a deal with Iran is imminent.

• Rupee Rises: The Indian National Rupee (INR) rose 60 paise to open at 95.25 against the US dollar on Friday. Of late, the currency has been under constant pressure.

• Oil Prices Drop: After hopes of the war coming to an end, oil prices dropped sharply. Brent crude fell to $88.80 per barrel, its lowest in the last two months.

• RBI’s Policy Announcement: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced a string of policy measures to attract foreign investments and support the INR. This is another reason behind the market’s bull run on Friday.

Investor Takeaway

The Indian stock market remains volatile, but today's rally has offered some relief to investors. If tensions in the Middle East ease further and the rupee strengthens against the US dollar, aided by the RBI's policy measures, benchmark indices may extend their recovery in the coming sessions.
