     OUTLOOK

Indian equities continued their upward momentum in August following the trend in global markets, even as India continues to see a sharp increase in daily new Covid-19 cases. In August and over the last 3-month basis, Small Caps significantly outperformed Mid and Large Caps. Since the bottom in March-20, Large, Mid and Small Caps have bounced 50%, 52% and 66% respectively.
Going forward, the pace of economic recovery would depend largely on the extent of local lockdowns on account of spread of Covid-19. Markets seems to have run ahead of fundamentals and are less than 10% lower than all-time highs. Global and domestic liquidity seems to have played a significant part in the sharp up move seen in the markets. Investors should tread with caution as the number of cases and deaths in India continue to rise. Also, earnings uncertainty for FY21 is fairly high with a wide range of analyst estimates.
