Volatility cooled sharply during the session, with India VIX falling 6.74% to 16.70, reflecting improving investor confidence amid reduced geopolitical anxiety. Market breadth remained positive as investors lapped up large-cap counters trading at relatively attractive valuations after recent corrections. Financials continued to dominate the rally after strong March quarter earnings, while stabilisation in the rupee also supported sentiment. Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said, “Markets witnessed strong positive momentum, driven by a correction in crude oil prices amid rising expectations of a potential US-Iran deal. Global sentiment improved on reports of progress towards reopening the Strait of Hormuz, although credibility remains uncertain given frequent shifts in developments." “The rally was led by large caps, supported by relatively attractive valuations versus long-term averages. On the sectoral front, financials outperformed on the back of strong Q4 earnings, while autos remained constructive," he added. Nair further said that realty stocks also saw renewed interest following the recent sharp correction. “On the macro front, global yields softened modestly, while rupee depreciation appears to have stabilised, aided by RBI commentary highlighting that the INR is undervalued, though it is early to confirm a sustained trend." He added that sustainability of the current momentum will depend on a credible de-escalation in geopolitical tensions and continued stability in crude oil prices.
