1st August, 2019 Morning Brief

Market will open with a gap-down tracking US market.

A sell-off in U.S. stocks extended to Asia as markets opened after Chairman Jerome Powell dented hopes the Federal Reserve is poised to continue easing after delivering the first interest-rate cut in over a decade.

Markets turned volatile as Powell signalled the Fed is in no rush to continue with easing, unless warranted by data.

Nifty has made a bullish candle on the daily yesterday. It's interesting to see whether it breaks yesterday's low or not to hope for some gains.

Market will open on a lower side today.

Stocks in Asia kicked off the week on a cautious note as traders dialled back expectations on the size of Federal Reserve easing later this month. Oil rose in early Monday trading ahead of an emergency meeting by U.K. officials to discuss the security of shipping in the Persian Gulf after Iran seized a British oil tanker last week.

U.S. stocks extended weekly losses amid mounting tension in the Persian Gulf and as investors speculated the Federal Reserve will limit a rate cut to a quarter-point.
