Axis AMC’s Chandresh Nigam on demand outlook and whether US elections are a market risk
"Massive stimulus plans announced by the government would be a growth driver irrespective of who wins,"Nigam told CNBC-TV18.
When the market rebounded sharply from its March lows, many investors were caught off-guard given the economic turmoil caused by COVID-19.
But Chandresh Nigam, MD and CEO of Axis AMC, believes that the market’s bounce-back signals that stocks are pencilling in high single digit or double digit growth for the next two-three years.
Nigam’s Axis AMC manages some of the industry’s best-performing funds. Nigam himself managed or oversaw funds for about two decades.
“The outlook for frontline stocks looks very good, which will keep markets supported,” Nigam told CNBC-TV18.
When asked if the US elections were a market risk, he said the massive stimulus plans announced by the government would be a growth driver irrespective of who wins.
In the near term, he said the market’s performance would depend on the demand situation.
“I am fairly optimistic about demand. I don’t expect demand to come off sharply. But it is not clear whether the recovery is due to pent-up or normalisation demand,” he said.
