V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services:
The near-term market trend is weak. The May US inflation print at 8.6% against the market expectation of 8.3% is likely to turn the Fed more hawkish with a series of 50 bp rate hikes taking the terminal rate by mid-2023 above 3.5%. Such a scenario would be negative for risky assets like equity, particularly in the context of declining global growth.
The Indian market will stabilize only when the US market stabilises. Therefore, investors may wait and watch till clarity emerges on the market trend.
One silver lining is the 7.1% increase in IIP which indicates that the Indian economy is doing well. Therefore, long-term investors can use the dips in the market to buy high quality economy-facing stocks like capital goods, banking, telecom and export segments.

Yesha Shah, Head of Equity Research, Samco Securities:
The benchmark appears to be moving towards the support zone between 15,900 and 16,100. Despite the fact that this week’s trading patterns suggest additional downside, the overall bearish momentum has moderated as the Nifty trades above the falling resistance line. As long as the Nifty does not fall below 15,900, there is a significant chance that it can test 16,800 levels.
We recommend traders keep a neutral view for the coming week and avoid aggressive trades on either side. Globally, Fed’s interest rate decision as well as the volatility in crude price will keep the market anxious. Back home, the CPI and WPI inflation print will be the main headliner next week. Markets participants will keenly analyse whether the import duty restrictions and rate hikes have had a positive impact on the inflation numbers.
Statistics on India’s trade balance will also be closely monitored as it clocked a record high in May. The movement of the rupee against the dollar will also be watched. Amid increasing macro uncertainties, investors are advised to exercise extreme caution till market decisively find its direction.

Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services:
Investors would look forward to upcoming Fed meeting scheduled on June 14 and 15. On the domestic side, a depreciating rupee, high crude oil prices and consistent FII selling remain key negatives.
The market is stuck in a broader range for the last one month, which is expected to continue until any clear direction emerges on either side. While declines are being bought into, support is missing at higher levels.
We expect limited stock and sector-specific action. Energy, auto, auto ancillary, select banks, retail, QSR and defence sectors are likely to be in focus.
