What Do The Experts Say About Stock Market?

According to a report by Mint, Dr. V.K. Vijayakumar has explained the market movements and momentum. He explained the Federal Reserve’s decision to keep the rates the same. He also discussed the forecast of economic growth at 1.7% and high inflation at 2.8% for 2025.

Amid all this, the most important statement was made by Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who said that the Fed might change its policies depending on how the economy changes. These changes are also heavily influenced by geopolitical tensions and are partly caused by actions related to tariffs from Donald Trump. Trump’s government’s tariff policies are also influencing the overall market predictability and the Fed’s decision.

Experts also speculate a strong upcoming market trend despite the ongoing selling by Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs). The factor driving the market trend is based on domestic trends.

The Nifty 50 has crossed the 23,000 mark, which could trigger a rally as short positions are closed. However, concerns remain over global trade conflicts, particularly with mutual tariffs set to be imposed on April 2.
