On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump reassured investors that he does not see a risk of a U.S. recession. His statement helped U.S. markets recover some of their earlier losses, easing concerns among investors. However, many remain cautious about the overall market direction.
Experts noted that the portfolio managers are taking a careful approach to manage the uncertainty. They are keeping extra cash reserves, reducing investments in overvalued stocks, and diversifying their portfolios to avoid risks related to Trump’s trade policies. Compared to his first term, Trump seems more comfortable with market fluctuations, leading to the belief that his administration is less likely to intervene to support stock markets.
Meanwhile, Asian markets performed well on Wednesday. Taiwan’s Weighted Index surged by 1.43%, South Korea’s KOSPI gained 1.47%, and Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite rose 1.24%. However, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index declined slightly by 0.13%.
Share Market: What Experts Are Saying?
Ajay Bagga Banking and Market Expert told ANI, “Yesterday Trump conceded to the media that he does not see a threat of a US recession. Markets got reassured somewhat and rallied into the close, reducing their Tuesday cuts. How do portfolio managers manage in these uncertain times? By keeping some powder dry, by getting out of high valuation narrative stocks, and by diversifying away the Trump Tariff risk. Hopes of a Trump Put have been belied, as the Pain Threshold of Trump 2.0 is much higher than Trump 1.0. More market falls are acceptable to President Trump this time around”.
Akshay Chinchalkar, Head of Research, Axis Securities said, “The Nifty’s recovery yesterday from the opening drop clearly shows that bulls are in play. Although the rebound traced a bullish “piercing line” formation, bulls will be emboldened further only if Monday’s high of 22677 breaks, with a first objective in the 22720–22798 area. For this to happen, though, we need to hold above support at 22245. Anything under that, and critical support at 22117 will most likely be tested. For now, the bulls have a slight edge.”
