Indian equity benchmark indices rebounded sharply on Thursday, breaking two days losing streak following a rally in global markets after US Federal Reserve maintained the status quo on interest rates. Investors cheered the US Fed decision amid escalating geopolitical uncertainties further worsened by the ongoing Israel Hamas conflict, higher inflation and persistent FII fund outflows.

The BSE Sensex gained 489.57 points or 0.77 per cent to settle at 64,080.90. The broader NSE Nifty jumped 144.10 points or 0.76 per cent to end at 19,133.25.

“Domestic equities cheered the US Fed’s decision to keep the interest rate unchanged. Nifty opened gap up and remained in positive territory throughout the session to close with gains of 144 points (+0.8%) at 19133 levels. Broad-based buying was seen, with all sectors ending in green. The US Fed maintained a pause on interest rates for the second consecutive time, fuelling expectations that the central bank is done with its interest rate hikes. This led to the US 10-Year bond yields to decline sharply by 27bps to close 1-month low at 4.70%,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd

Khemka said healthy Q2FY24 earnings and rise in GST collection also boosted the market sentiments. With the key event now behind, we now expect market to consolidate with a positive bias along with stock specific action. Globally investors would now await on the BOE interest rate decision and US Initial jobless claim data which will be release late Thursday.
