Krishna Appala, Senior Research Analyst at CapitalMind Research, said that the impact of the US market touching an all-time high after the Fed cut interest rates is being seen on the Indian markets. This has also opened the way for the RBI to cut interest rates. From a long-term perspective, IT, financial and pharma stocks are looking good from here.
