Will the rebound sustain?

According to various market experts, India may have better chances of holding up against the ongoing global turmoil as compared to most Asian and emerging market peers. But this optimism is likely to take some time to reveal itself.

It is difficult to predict whether the rebound will sustain as there is mounting uncertainty, not just around Trump’s tariffs, but also on how other economies might react and retaliate. In case of a full-blown multi-front global trade war, India’s immunity against the tariff might be quick to fade away with several market participants taking on a ‘sell-on-rise’ approach.

Thus analysts suggest investors to take on a ‘wait-and-watch’ mode as of now.
