Global brokerage HSBC on 20 November 2025 raised its target for India’s benchmark BSE Sensex to 94,000 by end-2026, pointing to an earnings recovery and cooling valuations.

US Fed policymakers remain split ahead of December rate decision
Minutes released on 19 November 2025 show that many members of the Federal Reserve were opposed to a rate cut in December, citing persistent inflation and employment strength. Some doves welcomed cuts, but the majority remained cautious, warning that prematurely lowering rates could undermine the inflation fight.

India’s wholesale inflation falls to 1.21% in October signalling deflationary risk

India’s wholesale inflation falls to 1.21% in October signalling deflationary risk
India’s wholesale price inflation (WPI) slid into negative territory at  1.21 % in October 2025, down from 0.13 % in September, according to the Ministry of Commerce & Industry. The decline was driven by lower commodity, fuel and food prices. 
Economists warn that persistent WPI contraction may squeeze manufacturing margins, delay investment and signal embedded weak demand ahead of upcoming policy reviews by the Reserve Bank of India.

RBI’s inflation-forecasting model under scrutiny after consistent misses

RBI’s inflation-forecasting model under scrutiny after consistent misses
The Reserve Bank of India’s inflation-forecasting framework is under fire after its projections missed actual inflation by as much as 0.7 percentage points in the first quarter of FY26 the largest error in nearly six years. 
Economists say the model’s persistent over estimation has contributed to a more hawkish stance than warranted and may challenge the central bank’s credibility going forward.

India’s CPI inflation plummets to 0.25%, raising demand concerns
India’s annual retail inflation fell to a record low of 0.25 % . Analysts highlight that while low inflation relieves price pressure, it also signals slackening consumer demand and elevated deflation risks as food inflation dropped sharply into negative territory. 
The subdued numbers may reduce pressure on the Reserve Bank of India to hike rates further, but raise questions about underlying growth momentum.

UBS Sees India as Third-Largest Economy by 2028 Despite Valuation Risks

UBS Sees India as Third-Largest Economy by 2028 Despite Valuation Risks
UBS projects India’s economy will become the world’s third-largest by 2028, buoyed by steady household consumption growth of ~7.9% CAGR. The bank expects real GDP to grow at ~6.4% in FY 27 and remain strong through FY 30. 
However, UBS warns that high equity valuations pose a risk. It rates Indian equities as “Overweight”, but cautions that they trade at a 48% premium versus emerging markets on forward P/E, pointing to possible corrections if macro conditions sour.

Australian Homeowners Worry About ‘Fictitious Wealth’ as Markets Slump

Australian Homeowners Worry About ‘Fictitious Wealth’ as Markets Slump
Economists are warning Australian homeowners that a drop in global equity markets, especially US tech names like Nvidia, could erase phantom gains in property wealth. Despite surging house prices in 2024-25, some argue this ‘wealth’ inflation isn’t backed by real economic growth. 
The concern is amplified by China’s shaky property sector and weak productivity. If equity markets suffer further, household balance sheets could come under stress, raising questions about the sustainability of asset-backed consumption.

According to the Bank of America November fund-manager survey, global investors have cut cash holdings to just 3.7%, triggering what the bank labels a “sell signal”. Equity and commodity allocations surged, but 63% of respondents believe markets are over-valued. 
The survey highlights that emerging markets and banks are seen as most exposed if rate-cuts disappoint. The most-cited tail-risk (45%) was a bubble in AI-linked stocks, and 59% cited private-credit as the likeliest source of systemic risk.

US Job Growth Slows in November, Clouds Fed Rate-Cut Expectations

US Job Growth Slows in November, Clouds Fed Rate-Cut Expectations
Job growth in the United States slowed in November 2025, prompting questions about the timeline for a potential interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. The deceleration in monthly employment gains has dampened hopes that the Fed could reduce rates in the near term, which in turn is affecting global risk assets. Markets are now watching for upcoming payroll and inflation data, which will shape expectations around monetary policy. The weaker labour report adds to global uncertainty and may ripple through emerging-market equities.

RBI’s Inflation Modelling Under Scrutiny as Manufacturing and Construction Drive Growth

RBI’s Inflation Modelling Under Scrutiny as Manufacturing and Construction Drive Growth
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is facing criticism for persistent overestimation in its inflation modelling, even as industrial growth is driven by manufacturing and construction segments. Analysts argue the central bank’s models have lagged real‑time data, which shows robust activity in infrastructure and factory output but lower than expected price pressures. The critique comes amid calls for updated frameworks that better capture sector‑specific dynamics and supply‑side risks, signalling that policy‑makers may need to refine their approach to inflation forecasting and monetary guidance.
