Probable reasons and expectations of bounce back: Looking to events which are lined up in next few days, a strong rebound is possibly seen from the beaten down markets. PM meeting with Industry leaders today gave a positive message to the markets. Fed meeting on 17 Sept, where Interest rates are not raised (most probable scenario). GST – Parliament session may be announced this week for GST bill passage. It is quite probable that govt will manage congress support for it through backdoor talks. RBI seems quite close to announcing 0.5% rate cut to stimulate economy. This may come in September itself. (Most probable scenario). Each of these events may potentially result in a bounce back in the markets. Though there are Risk Factors which still remain like the China economic parameters of stock market, export data, yuan valuation etc.
