After opening the week with a record-high close, equities took a hit in the midweek session after an article in the New York Times highlighted a potential obstruction of justice move by President Trump. However, the bulk of Wednesday's loss was retraced in the second half of the week as a ‘buy the dip' mentality set in. The major averages ended the second session of the week little changed, but a solid performance from mega-cap names like Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) pushed the Nasdaq to another record high. Led by NVIDIA (NVDA), chipmakers also underpinned the tech-heavy Nasdaq with the PHLX Semiconductor Index adding 1.5% for the second day in a row.

On Wednesday, equities su�ered their worst one-day decline since September following a New York Times article that claimed President Trump asked former FBI Director James Comey to shut down the Bureau's investigation of former National Security adviser Michael Flynn.

The allegation forced Wall Street to come to a quick realization that President Trump's pro-growth agenda items (i.e. tax reform, deregulation, and infrastructure spending) might not come to fruition as quickly as envisioned or perhaps not at all. The S&P 500 settled Wednesday's session with a loss of 1.8%. However, the bearish sentiment didn't last long as investors ‘bought the dip' on Thursday.

Underpinned by the semiconductor and biotechnology industries, the S&P 500 advanced 0.4% on Thursday in the face of a Reuters report that the Trump campaign might have had at least 18 undisclosed contacts with Russian o�cials and others with Kremlin ties leading up to, and after, the U.S. presidential election

Crude oil came back into focus once again, jumping 2.0% to $50.33/bbl, following reports that top oil producers will consider increasing the size of the OPEC/non-OPEC production cut when they meet on May 25.

Nifty lost momentum after touching the historic peak of 9533 in Wednesday’s trade, even as selling pressure dragged the index towards 9400 levels.

India’s consumer in�ation during April declined sharply to 3% from 3.9% in the prior month. The base year for calculating in�ation has changed from 2010 to 2012, with e�ect from the month of January 2015. CPI levels for April in rural and urban areas are reported at 3.02% and 3.03% respectively. Food in�ation has witnessed a sharp dip, with Consumer food price index reported at 0.6% (YoY), when compared with 2.0% rise during the previous month.

The Goods and Service Tax (GST) has been a topic of discussion since quite a few days given its impact on various companies. Following the last GST meeting and its outcome, the stocks of FMCG and Power compa-nies reacted positively on the indices. A large number of items that we use in our day-to-day lives have been kept under the 12% and 18% slab rate. This is going to have an impact on each and every individual.

NRIs can own in India two types of bank accounts with repatriation rights —

1. Non Resident External (NRE) 2. Foreign Currency Non Resident (FCNR). The third account is Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO), which is non-repatriable except for some types of income and capital receipts.

The NRE account is maintained in Indian rupees and the FCNR in foreign currencies. The interest on NRE and FCNR is free from Indian taxes. These accounts can be opened and maintained by remitting funds through normal banking channels in freely convertible currency from abroad or by transfer of funds from other NRE or FCNR accounts.

NRO account mostly consists of funds owned by the holder of the account when he was a Resident in India.

Persons who have gone abroad for employment or business are treated as NRIs by FEMA and are entitled to open NRI-related accounts.

The interest on NRE and FCNR is free from Indian taxes. However, just as global income of a Resident Indian is taxable in India (with DTAA relief ), the global income of a PIO may be taxable in his host country.
