Sensex sees 2 weeks of gain wiped out in half a day – plunges by over 1,400 points

Singapore-based fund house, Bank <keyword id="234253" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Julius-Baer">Julius Baer</keyword>, has upgraded <keyword id="3658" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="India">India</keyword> to overweight as it will be the fastest growing major economy in 2021. "We change our stance on India from market-weight to overweight and see 15% upside from current levels with a Sensex price target of 58,450," it said in a note. "An economic recovery is underway, and we look for 9% y/y GDP growth this year, followed by 7% next year. We look for earnings per share to grow on average over 25% over the next 3 years. It would be unprecedented for the stock market to fall in an environment of such strong growth," it added.

Lockdowns are imposed still in specific areas that experience Covid outbreaks, but high frequency data shows that has not stopped a continuous recovery following the nation-wide lockdown from March to July of last year. For example, anonymized data gathered shows the mobility of people using Android-based smartphones is almost back to pre-Covid levels, it added.
