Service PMI decline
Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services, said that despite a mixed trend in global markets, local markets remained profitable. In line with the decline in manufacturing PMI, the country’s services sector PMI also declined to 41.2 in June. It was 46.4 in May. This had a negative impact on the market. Nair said, “The strong US employment data indicates that the economy is improving at a steady pace. This has eased concerns about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates earlier than expected.
Relief in lockdown strengthens business sentiment
The country’s service sector activities have come down further in June as compared to May. The service PMI has come down to 41.2 from 46.4 in May. Due to sharp fall in production since July 2020, companies have had to reduce their workforce. Vinod Modi, head of strategy, Reliance Securities, said that the improvement in business sentiment after the easing of curbs has given relief to the markets. However, due to some increase in the cases of COVID-19 in different states, there may be a situation of concern in the near future. BSE Midcap and Smallcap gained 0.78 per cent.
