“Markets witnessed phenomenal buying support as Sensex quickly moved towards the crucial 75K mark after investors cheered strong corporate earnings from select frontline banking and cement companies, indicating their smooth sailing despite the global vagaries. Optimism prevailed from the start of the trading session as the cooling of US bond yields and letdown in the Middle Conflict coupled with a drop in crude oil prices generated a lot of enthusiasm amongst the investors. With the polling season on, the market is hoping for a clear mandate in favour of the ruling party. The two-day Fed's monetary policy meeting starting Tuesday will be closely watched by global investors, although markets don't expect any change in the policy outcome," said Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities Ltd.

With US Core PCE inflation steady at 2.8%, the hope is that the US Fed will provide some positive insight on rate cuts in the upcoming US Fed meeting.
