India's Nifty 50 Extends Rally to 5 Days as Barclays Sees Growth Near 7%

3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jun 19

Summary

  • India’s Nifty 50 logged a fifth straight day of gains on Thursday, matching the benchmark’s winning streak from early April.
  • Cooling oil prices and rising hopes for Middle East peace improved sentiment toward India, while Barclays said the easing energy shock and fading tariff worries leave equities at a meaningful discount.
  • Growth near 7% and a firmer rupee are reinforcing that view, with Citi forecasting India could draw as much as $80 billion in foreign capital by year-end.
  • The upbeat regional backdrop offset some caution after Accenture warned of weaker revenue ahead as AI disruption weighs on consulting demand.
