Nifty’s biggest positive catalyst: Tumbling oil prices at $68 a barrel.

*Morning Action @ 7 AM – Thursday, November 14th 2024*

# Our call of the day suggests that the benchmark Nifty shall struggle for direction.

# The biggest wall of worry continues to be persistent FIIs selling. Please note, FII exodus crosses Rs 27,600 crore this November.

# The trading theme shall also revolve around the US dollar index which has surged to 106.4, the highest since October 2023, as investors reacted to an inflation report that met expectations.

The dollar has gained from “Trump trades,” with markets betting on robust US economic growth and potentially inflationary policies when Donald Trump returns to office on Jan 20th which could constrain the Fed’s ability to cut interest rates.
