The RBI's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) cut of the policy
rate by 25 basis points (bps) for the second time in 2019 and to take the repo
rate back to 6% is seen as futile effort to consolidate debt market and support
the institutions burdened with debt specifically in Financial Market space.
This is proving as the welcome step considering the absence
of inflationary pressure. Equity Market also made quick gains out of the
sentiments developed post interest rate cut.
Going forward due to global reasons the crude prices are
expected to inch up raking all financial gains made in short duration of time.
If such be the case the RBI will be seen also increasing the benchmark rate by
25 basis points in its busy season credit policy.
Market mood is upbeat with the possibility of current govt.
getting re-installed again for the next 5 year term. In assertion of above
statement the recent FDI’s flows has already signaled the huge prospects of NDA
returning back into power.
RBI to infuse liquidity through
FX swap. The RBI continues to infuse durable liquidity into the banking system.
Overall liquidity situation may remain comfortable in next 2-3 months as we
expect cash withdrawals to normalize.
We reiterate with our stand to participate
in equities through SIP’s with investment horizons of at-least more than 5 year
with good mix of Large & Mid Cap’s fund. To balance your Portfolio as per
your short term/long term investment objective (keeping post tax returns in
mind) keep participating in debt fund with average maturity & modified duration
of around 18 months to be in safest territory with regard to the fluctuation of
interest rates going forward.
Happy Investing
