Market Levels To Watch

Global Markets Cheer Gains

Asian markets opened largely in the green with indices in Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Seoul, and Jakarta registering gains. The positive tone came on the back of Wall Street’s strong close on Tuesday. 

FII-DII Activity Shows Divergence

Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net sellers for the third straight session on June 3, pulling out Rs 2,853.83 crore, according to provisional exchange data. In contrast, domestic institutional investors (DIIs) continued their buying streak for the 11th consecutive session, investing Rs 5,907.97 crore into equities.

Economic Outlook And Rate Cut Expectations

Market strategists believe India's economic landscape remains supportive for equities. With CPI inflation under control, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is expected to initiate at least two more rate cuts in 2025, which may mildly affect banking margins. However, large private lenders are still poised to deliver 12–15 per cent returns over the year, analysts suggest.

Retail Participation Strengthens

Commenting on broader market resilience, Dr. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said, “The strong fundamental factors that will support the market are India’s robust and improving macros and sustained flows into mutual funds, particularly the SIP inflows which are steady and growing. This reflects the coming of age of the Indian retail investor."
