THE BACKGROUND AND ROAD AHEAD

A great sense of euphoria has now gripped all across the nation as equity markets have been shinning following positive political developments and also set of reforms introduced by Narendra Modi led NDA government in the Centre. On March 14, the markets opened touching their record highs taking cues from the outcome of Uttar Pradesh state assembly elections where BJP thrashed the ruling Samajwadi Party and its newly-wed coalition partner Congress thus reiterating the sense of political stability in the minds of the countrymen and especially the retail investors. The big question at this time dominating heart and mind of every retail investor is: where do the markets go from here.

We at Dalal Street Investment Journal explain how retail investors should act in capital markets keeping various triggers in mind. One should be ready with cash and act with the advantage of market sentiments. In simple words, during negative triggers, investors should invest in a staggered manner to hedge risk and take an opportunity for averaging buying price.

There are various domestic as well as global macroeconomic events which are going to impact the markets in the coming financial year. Markets acts irrationally when events such as demonetisation occur. Moreover, it is very difficult to predict future moves that will push markets down. Investors should act wisely and enter in the markets to get the right pricing and valuations overall.

CURRENT SITUATION

The Indian capital markets are near all-time highs. BSE Sensex and Nifty have increased almost 15 percent in FY17 till date.
