1194: Marketbuzz Podcast with Kanishka Sarkar: Here are the 10 key talking points

Hello and welcome to CNBC-TV18's daily markets podcast. Here’s a snapshot of all that you need to know before the February 15 trading action

-In the previous session, the Indian market defied the negative cues from global peers and made a smart recovery during intra-day trading to settle at day's high led by gains in State Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, and other PSU banks. At close, the BSE Sensex rose 267 to settle at 71,822.83 and the Nifty50 gained 96 points to end at 21,840.

- Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) net sold shares worth Rs 3,929.60 crore, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) purchased Rs 2,897.98 crore worth of stocks on February 14, provisional data from the NSE showed.

-Will Nifty 50 retest the 22000 or 22100 levels? Analysts say with the third quarter earnings season almost over, the focus will now shift to global cues and economic data points. And that the market may see a gradual up move on the back of strong fundamentals.

- Overnight in the US, all three major indexes regained some ground after the sell-off on February 13, following hotter-than-anticipated inflation reading. The S&P 500 advanced almost a percent while the Nasdaq Composite climbed more than a percent. The Dow Jones  was up 0.4%.

-In morning trade, Asian markets rebounded after mostly falling in the previous session. This is even as GDP numbers from Japan showed that Asia’s second-largest economy had entered a technical recession.

-All eyes will be on US retail sales data, jobless claims and industrial production data that will be released in the evening

-Stocks to track: Utkarsh Small Finance Bank, Hindustan Unilever, IRCTC, Paytm, M&M, Muthoot Finance, Gland Pharma, Glenmark Pharma and Sun TV.

-Trends in the GIFT Nifty indicate a positive start for the broader index in India, with a gain of 80 points or 0.37 percent. The Nifty futures were trading around the 21,993 level.

-Results: EPACK Durable and R Systems International
