The markets had a strong run on May F&O expiry yesterday, bereft of any volatility. US economy remains relatively healthy. Asian stocks climb after big Wall Street gains.

The bulls will gear its speed and will try to maintain its momentum through out the day. The bulls will try not to be beaten by the bears and will extract strong cues coming from its global peers. The Indian indices may witness another solid gains.

The entry of monsoons into the mainland will drive the market in India, outside of whatever global issues may crop up.

GLOBAL INDICES

European shares closed above the 1,000 mark on Thursday for the first time in just over a week as investor confidence was lifted after China denied a report it would review its Euro zone bond holdings.

US stocks rallied on Thursday as investor worry was eased after Chinese officials dismissed reports that they're reviewing their nation's investment in European bonds amid concerns about the continent's debt problems. The government revised its reading on first quarter gross domestic product (GDP), the broadest measure of US economic activity, to an annual growth rate of 3%.

In today's trade, the Asian markets were trading on a positive note after big gains on Wall Street and a stronger euro. At the time of writing this report, SGX Nifty was trading 32 points higher.
