Q2 GDP slowdown: What it means for stock market investors

India Today  

India’s economy hit a speed bump in Q2 FY25, with GDP growth slowing to 5.4%—the weakest in seven quarters. For stock market investors already navigating weak corporate earnings and persistent foreign outflows, this slowdown adds to the challenges on Dalal Street. Dr. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, said, "The Q2 GDP shocker of 5.4% will weigh on markets but the impact is unlikely to be big since part of the declining growth was factored-in by the market after the disappointing Q2 results." Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP, Mehta Equities Ltd also agreed that the market remains buoyant due to strong domestic investor sentiment, despite concerns over slowing GDP growth in Q2 FY25 to 5.4% and rising retail inflation above 6%. BROKERAGES ON INDIA'S GDP GROWTH It may be noted that Goldman Sachs has cut India’s FY25 GDP growth estimate by 40 basis points to 6%, while Nomura revised it to 5.7%.
