The impact of pressure on demand due to higher prices was seen in the country's manufacturing activity in November. Growth in the manufacturing sector remained modest but manufacturers remained optimistic. The HSBC Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for manufacturing sector for India, prepared by S&P Global, fell modestly to 56.50 in November from 57.50 in October. However, an index above 50 is considered expansion in that area. The country's economic growth rate in the second quarter of the current financial year came in much lower than expected at 5.40%. The new orders sub-index in November was the second lowest level of the current year. Competition and inflationary pressures have slowed the rate of expansion to an 11-month low.

Future direction of the market… Friends, the correction situation in the stock market is complete. The market has bounced back. As the impact of all the negative factors is now over, the market will continue to improve. After the storm created by the Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) in the Indian stock markets and the Nifty-based storm in the futures and options, the weekend saw a universal rally in the stocks. Of course, FPIs sold again in the cash segment over the weekend while local funds, local institutional investors bought new life in small, mid cap stocks. But right now it would be premature to believe that the market is fully back on the bullish track. With GDP growth numbers coming in at a two-year low and geopolitical tensions yet to fully ease, the market is likely to remain volatile as the Nifty-based vortex is likely to continue into the first fortnight of December. The rally seen over the weekend can be considered a pullback rally for now. On the global front, there is a risk of rising geopolitical tensions as a result of Russia's massive missile attack on Ukraine, with Hezbollah violating the cease-fire between Israel and Lebanon and signaling the possibility of another war. As it is difficult to predict that a turn will take place, it is important to be careful in large bullish trades right now Be defensive and selective in stocks with a pull back rally. After the crash in November, now that December is about to begin, the Nifty and Sensex are likely to witness some upheaval in the coming days.
