RBI policy, macro data, global cues to dictate equities

New Delhi: Outcome of the Reserve Bank's monetary policy review, macroeconomic data and major global events would set the market tone this week, say experts.

Investors are keeping an eye on global events like Italy's constitutional referendum outcome (due December 4 night), which could determine whether the country stays in the Eurozone or not.

Other major global cues likely to affect stock market movement include US payrolls report and upcoming US Fed policy.

On the domestic front, services PMI data is scheduled to be out on Monday, while RBI's first policy after the demonetisation move is due on Wednesday, December 7.

"Domestically, the big event next week is RBI interest rate decision, which will determine the medium-term trend for the market," said Rohit Gadia, Founder and CEO, CapitalVia Global Research.

Moreover, developments in the Parliament's ongoing Winter session will also be keenly watched.

"We believe the market to trade in the volatile zone in the next week. Going forward, Nifty has strong support at 8036 and 7950. It may encounter selling pressure and resistance at 8180-8240," said Abnish Kumar Sudhanshu, Director and Research Head, Amrapali Aadya Trading and Investments.

For the week ended December 2, the Sensex and Nifty both recorded losses by falling 85.68 points, or 0.32 percent, and 27.50 points, or 0.33 percent, respectively.
