With the earnings season nearing its end, the heightened possibility of another rate hike in the US, along with the resultant increase in bond yields, are expected to keep the global market’s volatility high.
On the domestic front, sentiments remained positive, backed by strong demand in the banking sector, though IT and pharma limited the gains, Nair said.
