Well,besides #Fitch,which projects 9.5% growth for India in FY22,S&P has retained BBB minus,but with #StableOutlook
S&P has praised India's sound net external position&closing of fiscal gap under @narendramodi govt💪
S&P forecasts #GDP growth of 8.5% for India in FY22
S&P's #StableOutlook has been received pretty well by Bond markets with 2029 bonds trading at #Yield of 5.98%&2030@ #BondYield of 5.77%
Global markets will seek cues from #FOMC,as it concludes its 2 day meet today #Coronavirus
Well,well--#Fed decides to keep rates at #zero,till 2022!In other words,for next 18 months,expect global asset markets to be driven #northwards, by the big #LiquidityTap-Yes #QEInfinity is here
Fed will buy $80billion of treasuries &$40bn of #MBS each month-HUGE
#Rupee has fallen far lower Vs #Dollar,comparatively👇
Euro,2 days ago,went below $1 for 1st time in 20yrs,reflecting big weakness in #Euro
Rupee,displaying strength,has risen big time against Euro,Pound &Yen💪
So #Madarsa dentists from Congress should stop lecturing on Rupee
@narendramodi govt in a landmark measure has allowed international trade settlement in #Rupees
Explained👇
When countries import&export goods&services,they have to make payments in foreign currency
Since US Dollar is world’s reserve currency,most trades are entered into in USD
Here,both parties involved have to incur conversion expenses&bear risk of foreign exchange rate fluctuations
This is where trade settlement in Rupee comes in-instead of paying &receiving US Dollars,invoice will be made in Indian Rupees if counterparty has #Rupee Vostro account
Some Business News anchors are saying Rupee has fallen against Dollar because our monthly #TradeDeficit is hitting $20bn&our Current Account Deficit(CAD),will be 3%
Well,$20bn a month Trade Deficit is no big deal for us,given that our Goods+Services Exports are a massive $670bn
2.5-3% CAD for an economy growing at average of 7.5-9.5% is not a big deal either
In fact,in last 8yrs,average CAD under @narendramodi govt has been sub 2%,so we have enough leeway on that count
Why then are major Currencies falling against Dollar?
Industrial growth estimated at 11.8% &Services at 8.2% in FY22 show how Economy under @narendramodi is ready to fire on all cylinders
Most Growth Parameters are back to pre-Pandemic levels,as India heads into #UnionBudget2022
#GDP&GVA growth 1.3%&1.9% over Pre #COVID19 levels
#EconomicSurvey shows,be it Operationalisation of Airports or Spread of Bank Branches, @narendramodi govt has truly transformed India,with financial inclusion getting top priority
India set to be Fastest growing for next 2yrs as per IMF,thx to bold reforms by #PMModi #Modinomics
