Bernstein Rates BSE 'Underperform' and MCX 'Outperform' Amid Trading Volume Trends
Bernstein initiated coverage on BSE Ltd with an 'underperform' rating, citing a normalization in equity derivatives growth and challenges from the new Closing Auction Session affecting trading volumes. The brokerage set a target price implying a 17% downside. Conversely, Bernstein rated Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) as 'outperform,' highlighting its earlier stage of commodity trading growth, rising retail participation, and potential for earnings upgrades. The differing outlooks reflect expectations of volume moderation in equity derivatives versus continued momentum in commodities trading.
