What do experts say
Vinod Nair, head of research at Geojit Investments Ltd, said that the market remained bullish at the end of trading due to lower level buying in shares of vehicles, banks and companies making daily use goods. He said that the attitude of investors in the near future will depend on the developments in the Strait of Hormuz. If the impact on the supply chain remains minimal then the market may get further support.
