The fortnight’s burning question. Will the FII buying spree continue in stock markets?

Maybe. Dinesh Thakkar, CMD, Angel Broking
The election results have given confidence to FIIs. There is much more inflow to come but the pace may not be as furious as now. Those FIIs that risked investing at lower levels would book some profits and FIIs who were fencesitters till the elections, may use every dip to buy Indian equities.

Yes. Sandip Sabharwal, CEO (PMS), Prabhudas Lilladher
I think markets such as India will continue to get a disproportionate share of money flow given the fact that our economy will outperform most economies in the coming years. The pace of inflows and the speed with which markets have moved up has also been because most mutual funds, hedge funds and HNIs were sitting on large amounts of cash, expecting that markets will keep declining.

Yes. D.K. Aggarwal, Managing Director, SMC Wealth Management Services
The FIIs’ current confidence in the markets largely hinges on the fact that Indian GDP is expected to grow at more than 6 per cent in 2009-10. Low interest scenario, high liquidity and lower vulnerability of the economy make India a preferred destination for FIIs. Moreover, Indian equities are also available at a relatively low valuation.
