Good news for everyone! The Nifty 50 index has gone up more than 1% in the last two trading days. A company called Axis Securities believes that the index could reach 26,100 by December 2025, which is an 8% increase from where it is now. They think India’s economy is growing strong, thanks to more money being spent on projects, which helps banks lend more. This means that Indian stocks could provide great returns, predicted to be in the double digits over the next 2-3 years.

Axis Securities expects earnings to grow at a strong rate of 14% each year from 2023 to 2027. They see good signs from the economy, government spending on buildings and roads, and a stable political situation. Financial stocks like ICICI Bank and SBI are expected to do really well in 2025 and 2026.

Even though some investors might be looking at China for a little while, Axis Securities is still confident about the long-term prospects of Indian stocks. Their advice? Focus on choosing good-quality stocks at reasonable prices to increase your chances of earning money in the next year.

In the short term, there might be some ups and downs in the market. Axis Securities suggests a “Buy on Dips” strategy. They recommend keeping some cash handy (about 10%) to take advantage of price drops and to invest in high-quality companies that are likely to perform well in the next 12-18 months.

In a nutshell, Axis Securities feels positive about India’s market in the long run, even when the global situation seems unpredictable.

In contrast, silver prices jumped up by Rs 2,400, reaching Rs 92,400 per kg, up from Rs 90,000. Traders say the rise in silver prices is mainly due to its demand in industries.

Just the day before, gold and silver prices were highly influenced by a stronger dollar after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to impose heavy tariffs on BRICS countries. This news worried traders and pushed the dollar up, also causing the Indian rupee to weaken significantly.

Gold’s safe demand was affected by signs of a hold in the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, but tensions between Russia and Ukraine still encouraged some buying of gold. Chintan Mehta, the CEO of Abans Holdings, mentioned that gold prices stayed steady because of better-than-expected U.S. manufacturing PMI data, which helped boost the dollar’s strength. He also noted that Christopher Waller, a U.S. Federal Reserve governor, is still hopeful about falling inflation and a strong job market, hinting at possible interest rate cuts in December.

In the Asian market, silver is trading 1.93% higher at $31.46 per ounce.

Bharat Subcontinental Agri Foundation (BSAF) is gearing up for an exciting event called the South Asia Agri Summit. This important gathering will take place on January 15-16, 2025, at the Shangri-La Hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The summit will focus on the changing landscape of pulses, grains, dry fruits, and spices in South Asia.

Many important people and companies will attend, including the National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India (NAFED), Wheat Products Promotion Society (WPPS), and various flour mill associations from India.

The agricultural sector in South Asia is growing fast because people want more food, and there is a chance to sell products abroad. This summit is a great opportunity for exporters to learn about new market trends, rules, and technology. They’ll also get to meet industry leaders, government officials, and potential partners, which can help them form valuable business connections.

The event will feature expert discussions, trade exhibitions, and B2B meetings. These sessions will tackle important issues and explore opportunities in the agri-commodity trade. Exporters can use this chance to better understand trade in the region and find good opportunities for their products.

“Joining the South Asia Agri Forum can help you reach more customers and put your business at the forefront of agri-commodity trade in the region,” said Vivek Agarwal, Managing Director of BSAF. The last summit took place in Bangkok, Thailand, while the one before that was in Kathmandu, Nepal. The Thailand event welcomed over 1,000 attendees from nearly 50 different countries.
