JP Morgan retains Nifty target of 27,000; bets big on power, data centre plays on capex push · financialexpress.com

A company called JP Morgan studies the stock market in India.

It watches how much money big companies earn, which is called earnings.

After looking at the latest reports, JP Morgan said Indian companies did very well in their first quarter.

Because of this, it kept its prediction that India's main stock market index, the Nifty 50, could reach 27,000 points.

JP Morgan thinks people and businesses in India are still buying and spending a lot.

It also believes data centres, which help run artificial intelligence, will need lots of electricity.

That means power companies and makers of electrical equipment could grow.

However, JP Morgan says there are risks like conflicts overseas, expensive oil, and higher costs.

The weather, especially the monsoon rains, is also important for shops and farms in the countryside.

Overall, the report is optimistic but notes the future depends on how strong demand in India stays.
