There are a host of channels which would be coming out with their version of exit polls. These channels could be classified as pro-government, anti-government and neutral with the last of the lot being very few. One would have to do a lot of calculation to decide what could be the final outcome.Market movement on Friday indicates that the street believes that NDA would form the government. If exit polls indicate something negative to this, there could be a negative movement on Monday. In any case, for the next three days, markets would be volatile based on one's understanding of the exit polls and the possible outcome. It makes sense to stay away from choppy markets unless it is to buy or sell investments. Trading may be dangerous as movements could be very sharp.It doesn't make sense to be a pollster with exit polls less than a few hours away. Suffice to say that markets confidence in the government of the day is likely to be repeated. Invest wisely.(Arun Kejriwal is founder of Kejriwal Research and Investment Services)
