     OUTLOOK

The pandemic's second wave appears to have peaked and a long "plateau" lies in front of us (similar to Jul-Sept 2020). The pace of vaccination will be an important factor to re-start the economic engine – which thankfully was in neutral rather than switched off as the case last year.

For India, macros economic indicators - inflation and crude oil remain the two key variables to track. From a macro point of view, the debate of Cyclical vs Growth will rage till the time RBI policy – which currently focuses entirely on Growth, pivots its focus solely on inflation. It may be difficult to predict how long this phase will last. For smart investors, observing/ keeping track of key macro trends will need to become an integral part of the investment process – domestic as well as global.

Markets at current elevated levels need the support of strong earnings growth and continuation of the loose monetary policy globally, especially in the US. Any perception of change to the worse on both counts will make the markets nervous and twitchy. Market corrections, as a result, will not be slow and suffocating, they will be short and sharp. FY21-23 market move may be more broad-based as compared to the FY17-20 phase. The same may be necessitated across equity portfolios!
