Morning view by Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services.
Globally stock markets have been resilient despite the escalating tensions in the Middle East. A big positive for equity markets is the strong US economy where the September non-farm job numbers have come surprisingly robust at 2.54 lakhs. The combination of a strong economy and declining inflation in the mother market of the US is a big positive.
