Nifty this week:

This Nifty was between 24,200 and 24,400. I thought it would be flat or decline, but it rose a little bit and consolidated in the above limits. Friday we had Muhurat trading session, where Nifty rose slightly. This week, the FIIs selling slowed down. This gave a slight relief to the markets this week. 
Now we saw the Japanese Yen declined owing to the political reasons in that country. So the investors shifted towards Japanese stocks. Currently, the Japanese markets are considered as undervalued.
But, FIIs are believing in the short term momentum created in the Chinese stock market. So it was said that FIIs are shifting from India and Japan, and moving towards China. But this cannot sustain in long term, I believe. 
The long term prospects are good for India. 
So whenever the FIIs may return back to Indian stocks. But I’m not sure when would that happen. 
Further the escalating geopolitical tensions create fear among investors and make them to shift their investments to gold.
As of now I’m not seeing any factor which could push the Nifty upwards to its previous highs. I still hope it could be flat and declining. 
Everyone should be aware that, the only reason that is preventing the Nifty to fall to 23,500 is the strong buying action from DIIs. Once the funds left with DIIs have exhausted, and if the FII selling continues, then we could witness a free fall in the market. 
So it is always important to purchase only the value stocks at a correct price. It is safe to avoid bulk buying of shares.

Gold this week:

Gold price was slightly volatile, yet from long term perspective gold investment looks attractive. Purchasing gold in the form of ETFs is more cheaper and one the best ways to invest in gold compared to physical gold due to the absence of GST. But di consult a financial advisor before investing in gold and about the quantity of gold to hold.
