NEW DELHI: The 50-share Nifty index is expected to open flat tracking mixed Asian markets on Friday while higher inflation and slowing growth concerns will keep investors at bay.
According to a Reuters POLL, India's industrial output probably rose 5.5 percent in April from a year earlier, moderated by successive interest rate rises which slowed manufacturing growth.
The food price index rose an annual 9.01 percent in week to May 28, government data showed on Thursday, up from 8.06 percent in the previous week.
Markets had a lacklustre day on Thursday even as Nifty slipped a bit and failed to break above it's resistance at 5580.
"Markets continue to trade in a narrow band between 5480 and 5560. Traders must wait and watch for now till Nifty decisively breaks out above 5580 to go long. There is a strong possibility that the Nifty might snap out of this range in the next few sessions", says Kunal Saraogi, CEO, Equityrush.
Metals, cement and auto remains weak whereas telecom, pharma, textiles and select banking stocks look strong, adds Kunal
Investors will closely watch China's import and export numbers to see how the world's second-largest economy is holding up amid government credit curbs.
Wall Street edged higher on Thursday after six days of losses as a narrowed U.S. trade deficit was seen as one positive point for growth but weekly jobless claims edged higher last week echoing fears of slowing economic recovery.
