According to experts, global markets bounced back after the decline on Monday and last week, but volatility is expected as the Fed rate cut date approaches on September 18.
"The US markets had a relief bounce back, with Big Tech also recovering some of the last week's losses. Asian markets are following the US cues and are largely positive. This is more of a technical dip buying, as the four issues of economic slowdown and falling commodity prices, rate hikes by BOJ , overextended global markets with a concentrated Big Tech base, and an imminent Fed rate cut on September 18, continue to cast a shadow on markets. Global cues remain the dominant theme and we expect more volatility/weakness going into the September 18 announcement by the Fed," Ajay Bagga told ANI while speaking about the stock market update.
The US markets ended significantly higher on Monday.
