CNBC-TV18 spoke to Ashwini Agarwal of Ashmore Investment Management and Rohit Srivastava of Indiacharts.com to discuss the week gone by and the week to come.
Agarwal said, “Very positive sentiment has come through this week especially after softish last week both on global basis and in India. People were nervous in terms of budget. What we have seen is a big rotation into banks and domestic cyclicals. Wherever the positioning is slightly weak and earnings prospects are improving there is a lot of room for upside and financials is the one place where I think post the budget people are feeling quite positive.”
Rohit Srivastava said, “Participation has become very broad-based so if I just have to name sectors I have always liked metals, but banks have also done well, they continue to do well. Pharma has slowed down a bit but I still think it has a long way to go longer term so it is good defensive to keep having.”
“Continue to look at auto sector which has been doing well, capital goods would be a new one to again add up. So it is almost pretty much broad-based, you can simply take what you like, you would want to then determine out of everything that is going up what is going to go up more or less and slowly but clearly everybody is seeing the same moving back to core economy and cyclicals versus the FMCG, pharma which we thought were overbought.”
