Banks posted good Q4FY23 (fourth quarters) numbers, but the net interest margins of the bank seem to be peaking out, while cement compes' margins continued to be on the weaker side, FMCG company's volume growth still continues to be under pressure as Inflation impacts rural and urban demand.""Textile compes have seen a sharp rebound in operating margins sequentially in Q4FY23, as cotton raw material prices and Freight has fallen to pre-Covid levels," he said.Talking along the lines of challenges, Arvinder Singh Nanda, "In the monthly review of March, the Finance Minister (Nirmala Sitharaman) stated that the Indian economy faces risks such as a slowdown in the global economy, geopolitical development, El Nino effect on the farm output and financial tightening going ahead."He said, "On the global front, US initial jobless claims came at 2,30,000 as compared to 2,46,000 in the previous week. US GDP in Q1 slows to 1.1 per cent as the higher Interest Rate by Fed (Federal Reserve) in the last 1.5 years has impacted the demand and the housing market witnessed a slowdown in the US."Arvinder Singh Nanda said, "Market sentiments turned positive again as Nifty resumed its gaining streak after a one-week pause. Prices increased by nearly 2.5 per cent to settle the week at 18065, crossing above their key psychological level of the 18000 mark."He added a similar trend could be seen in Bank Nifty also as a major component of the index was positioning on the verge of an upside breakout.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
