“Tracking strong momentum of global peers, domestic bourses witnessed a smooth sail, steered by index heavyweights and gains in financials & consumer durables. Despite surging covid cases, investor sentiments remain positive globally as reports suggest lower impact of the new variant on economic recovery. However, India’s unemployment rate rose to 7.9% in December as compared to 7% in November owing to muted economic activity in rural and urban India amid rise in Omicron cases.”
