High inflation remains the biggest concern for the Indian stock market. The measures taken by the Union government to control inflation have also added to uncertainty on corporate profit. Finance Minister P Chidambaram on Tuesday, 29 April 2008, said government will impose export tax on basmati rice and some steel products, and cut import duties on key inputs like ferro alloys and metallurgical coke. He said the measures were being taken to improve domestic supplies and to moderate prices. The government has already banned export of cement and non-basmati rice.

Given that parliamentary elections are scheduled next year (in May 2009), the government may leave no stone unturned in its attempt to rein in inflation. This is bad news for commodity scrips like cement, steel etc.

In a bid to rein in inflation, the Reserve Bank of India, on Tuesday, 29 April 2008, raised cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 25 basis points to 8.25%, to suck out excess liquidity in the banking system, in its annual monetary policy review. While the central bank has mentioned price stability as its key priority, the overall undertone of the policy is not as hawkish as market had feared. The RBI governor Y V Reddy expects inflation to moderate in the next 2-3 months.

Good Q4 results March 2008 results and firm global markets, triggered a solid rebound in the Indian market over the past few days. Buying by domestic institutions has supported the market. From a recent low of 14,809.49 on 17 March 2008, the Sensex climbed 2,790.63 points or 18.84% to 17,600.12 on 2 May 2008.

The structural growth drivers of the Indian economy remain intact – India’s economy is expected to witness a decent-to-strong growth for a long period of time due to favourable demographics. Acceleration in infrastructure creation will be another driver of strong growth in India’s economy. Rating agency CRISIL in its latest outlook for Indian economy for the year through March 2009 has stated that the overall growth scenario is expected to remain strong with investment as the main driver.

Another pointer to the fact that the long term India growth story remains intact is the outcome of the latest 2008 US-India Business Council (USIBC) survey, according to which, India is, and will continue to be, a premier destination for investment by US firms, with a large number of respondents rating future economic growth in India as highly sustainable.

Market may remain positive


The market is expected to remain firm as investors have got mixed cues from the US and positive cues from the European markets. Major Asian indices like Nikkei are trading with gains of more than 200 points in morning trades. All this will boost investor sentiment in early trades. However, on the technical side, the Nifty could test 5255 on the upside and find support in the 5200-5150 range whereas the Sensex may face resistance at 17750 and find support at 17440.

US indices exhibited a mixed trend on Friday, with the Dow Jones moving up by 48 points to close at 13058 and the Nasdaq dropping by three points to close at 2477.

Except HDFC Bank, which was down marginally by 0.19 %, all the Indian floats had a decent outing on the US bourses. Rediff was the biggest gainer and rose 5.38% while Satyam scaled up 4.54%. MTNL, Wipro, ICICI Bank and VSNL jumped by over 2-3% each while Infosys, Tata Motors, Dr Reddy's and Patni Computer gained around 1% each.

Crude oil prices in the US market gained sharply, with the Nymex light crude oil for June delivery adding $3.27 to close at $116.32 a barrel. In the commodity space, the Comex gold for June 08 series rose $7.10 to settle at $858 an ounce.

Worries Remain!


If you can solve your problem, then what is the need of worrying? If you cannot solve it, then what is the use of worrying?

The bulls came up trumps for yet another week, despite inflation shooting up to a 42-month high. In short, most worries are being ignored for now. The RBI's move to keep rates unchanged, coupled with firm global markets and decent set of earnings helped the bulls maintain the current momentum. Technically too, things are looking up, with the Nifty surpassing the 200 DMA comfortably and staying above that level. Technical experts see further upside of about 150-200 points on the Nifty before the bulls meet with any major resistance. The 5000 level is being seen as a major support for the Nifty. Lots of put writing is taking place at this level. Single stock futures too witnessed encouraging build up last week. Things are looking promising for the bulls as of now though a fresh downside is not entirely ruled out.

Most factors that led to the big crash in the first quarter may still pose some challenges going ahead. Don’t get carried away with the current euphoria. Lock in gains in stocks that have seen a healthy rally over the past month or so. FIIs have not been pretty active during the ongoing rally, which raises some doubts about the strength and longevity of the rebound. This week, the outlook remains positive, with the US economy continuing to avoid a recession and job losses decreasing. In fact, some Wall Street observers are looking at a much shorter and milder recession than what was anticipated. It remains to be seen, however, whether this indeed turns out to be true. Today, we expect the market to open on a cautious to slightly higher note. Profit booking could set in later.

Key Results Today: Century Enka, Century Textiles, i-flex and JSW Steel.

FIIs were net buyers of Rs6.58bn (provisional) in the cash segment, while local institutions were net sellers of Rs180mn. In the F&O segment, foreign funds were net buyers of Rs17.39bn. On Wednesday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs847mn in the cash segment.

Most Asian stocks advanced this morning, lifting the region's benchmark to an almost four-month high, after copper and crude oil prices rallied. BHP Billiton advanced in Sydney. STX Pan Ocean Co. led shipping stocks higher after the price of transporting bulk commodities jumped to the highest in almost five months.

The MSCI Asia Pacific excluding Japan Index advanced 0.1% to 498.41 as of 9:29 a.m. in Hong Kong, with an index of raw material suppliers adding 1.1%. The regional benchmark was poised for its highest close since January 15.

Markets in Japan, South Korea and Thailand are closed for holidays. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index added 0.5%. Benchmark indexes open for trading elsewhere in Asia gained.

US shares closed mostly up on Friday after a highly choppy day. However, all the major indices eased off after a strong opening, which was sparked by fewer than expected job losses and the Federal Reserve's latest liquidity boosting measures.

Up 120 points at the start, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 48 points, or 0.4%, to close at 13,058.20. It was up 1.3% on the week. The S&P 500 gained 5 points, or 0.3%, to close at 1,413.9, giving it a 1.1% weekly rise.

The technology-laden Nasdaq Composite fell 4 points, or 0.2%, to 2,476.99, clocking a weekly gain of 2.2%.

A better-than-forecast jobs report and the $23bn takeover of Wrigley pushed the US market to its longest winning streak in seven months last week. Technology, consumer and telephone stocks led the S&P 500 to a four-month high, while raw material and energy producers declined as the dollar climbed.

Volume on the New York Stock Exchange neared 3.9bn, with advancers outpacing decliners roughly 9 to 7. On the Nasdaq, almost 2.3bn shares traded hands, and declining issues edged just ahead of those advancing, about 4 to 3.

Crude oil futures rose $3.80 to close at $115.632 a barrel. Elsewhere on the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold futures gained $7.1 to $858 an ounce. The dollar advanced 1.3% against the euro last week. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note declined to 3.86% from 3.87% as traders anticipated that the Fed may pause its interest-rate cuts.

The Fed slashed the benchmark interest rate by a quarter point to 2% and indicated it's ready to pause after seven cuts since September. That pushed the dollar to the highest in five weeks, making commodities a less attractive investment because they are often priced in the US currency.

US job losses narrowed in April, with the non-farm payrolls dropping by 20,000, far fewer than the 75,000 decline that had been anticipated by most Wall Street analysts. The US unemployment rate dropped to 5% from 5.1% in April.

The jobs report signaled that the downturn in the world's largest economy may be milder than the 2001 recession.

Meanwhile, the Commerce Department reported a 1.4% rise in US factory orders in March.

Wall Street will start the new week in an upbeat mood, with investors growing more confident that the economy and the financial markets are heading towards a second-half recovery.

There's a growing sense that the worldwide credit crisis, triggered by the meltdown in the US housing sector is nearing an end.

European shares rallied on Friday after a day's break. The pan-European Dow Jones 600 index rose 1.9% to 329.21, extending early gains after data on the US labor market came in stronger than expected. Advancers on the Stoxx 600 led decliners by nearly a six-to-one ratio.

Most European stock markets were closed on Thursday for the May Day holiday.

The UK's FTSE 100 gained 2.1% to 6,215.50, while the French CAC 40 added 1.5% to 5,069.71 and the German DAX 30 advanced 1.4% to 7,043.23.

In the emerging markets, the Bovespa in Brazil rose 2.2% to 69,366 while the IPC index in Mexico gained nearly 0.9% to 30,551. The RTS index in Russia added 0.9% to 2140 and the ISE National 30 index in Turkey advanced 1.8% to 54,068.

US data to accelerate gains

It was the second straight day of gains for the bulls as key indices ended the week higher. Bulls yet again shrugged off the spike in the inflation figures lifting the Nifty index above the 5,200 mark and the Sensex index above the 17,600 mark. Inflation was at 7.57% in week ended April 19 against expectation of 7.42%. India’s Inflation stayed at 3 ½ years high.

US Market holds on to gains


Federal Reserve’s rate cut and better than expected employment report boost market

The last week that ended on Friday, 02 May, 2008 was quite eventful at US Market. It started with a couple of important news in the merger front. Thereafter market got swayed by Federal Reserve’s next slot of interest rate cuts. Market did react in a bit whimsical fashion to the interest rate cut. The week finally ended with the employment report which came as better thane expected.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 166 points for the week. Tech - heavy Nasdaq gained 54 points. S&P 500 gained 16 points. In percentage terms the three indices gained 0.3%, 0.8% and 0.5% respectively.

After remaining a bit subdued in the earlier part of the week, market picked up momentum in the later part. Infact it can be said that it ended up being a three-day work week. That's because things didn't get really interesting for market participants until Wednesday, 30 April, 2008.

On Wednesday, The Federal Open Market Committee announced today that it cut the fed funds and discount rates by 25 basis points. This left the fed funds rate at 2% and the discount rate at 2.25%. The Fed said economic activity remains weak, while inflation expectations are picking up.

The stock market was in rally-mode ahead of the Fed decision and got an added boost shortly after the headlines hit the wires. In striking fashion, it sold off sharply late in the day and ended Wednesday in negative territory. The knee-jerk explanation was that there was disappointment in the directive and the idea that the Fed didn't sound more hawkish on inflation.

On Thursday, 1 May, the indices soared. Huge gains in the financial and technology sectors powered the advance, as did a noticeable drop in commodity prices that were impacted by a strengthening dollar.

On Friday, 2 May, 2008 the Fed announced intentions to increase its Term Auction Facility to $150 billion from $100 billion, and also allow AAA asset-backed securities to be pledged as collateral. Continuing to act on proactive lines, the Fed increased swap lines with the Swiss National Bank to $12 billion from $6 billion and increased swap lines with the European Central Bank to $50 billion from $20 billion in a multilateral effort to address persistent liquidity pressures.

Also, on Friday, the job report was out where unemployment rate for April fell to 5% from 5.1% in March. April's unemployment rate was less than the consensus estimate of 5.2%. Nonfarm payrolls for April slipped by 20,000, which is less than the revised decline of 81,000 experienced in March and also less than the 75,000 decline economists expected. Importantly, these figures do not reflect the kind of weakness often associated with a recession.

The stock market made a nice move in the wake of the jobs report, but succumbed to some week-end selling interest that pared its gains considerably.

Among major earning reports for the week, Colgate-Palmolive, General Motors and Procter & Gamble - all topped expectations. Humana and Sysco topped expectations, while Verizon reported in-line earnings. Credit card processors Visa and MasterCard both reported their quarterly earnings. Visa topped its estimate by 17%, while MasterCard beat by 30%.

Among major deal news during the week, privately held snack food company, Mars is going to acquire Chicago-based Wrigley for roughly $23 billion, or $80 per share in cash, representing a 28% premium over Friday's closing level. Warren Buffet said that Berkshire Hathaway will provide $6.5 billion in financing.

On the economic report front, advance first quarter GDP rose by 0.6%, topping the consensus estimate of 0.5%.

Also the Conference Board said April consumer confidence fell to 62.3 from 65.9, marking the lowest consumer confidence in roughly five years. The number, however, is better than expected market projected the reading to slip to 61.

Executive Summary

For the week, indices registered modest gains. DJIx and S&P 500, each closed up by 1.3% and 1.1% respectively. Nasdaq closed up by 2.2%. Federal Reserve’s rate cut decision, earning and economic reports dominated the week.

The Federal Open Market Committee announced today that it cut the fed funds and discount rates by 25 basis points. This left the fed funds rate at 2% and the discount rate at 2.25%. Advance first quarter GDP rose by 0.6%, topping the consensus estimate of 0.5%.

For the year, Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 are down by 1.6%, 6.6% and 3.7% respectively

Crude bounces back


Prices rise almost $4 due to problems resurfacing in Middle East

Crude prices rose by more than $3 on Friday, 02 May, 2008. Price rose after reports that Turkish planes bombed bases of separatist Kurds in northern Iraq. But for the week, price closed lower by almost 2%. During the week, crude price began to slip as the dollar strengthened against its rivals. The same reduced the commodities’ appeal as a hedge against inflation. Prices also continued to slip for the third straight day after weekly inventory report by the Energy Department showed that crude supplies rose more than forecast.

Crude-oil futures for light sweet crude for June delivery closed at $116.3/barrel (higher by $3.8/barrel or 3.4%) on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Last Monday, 28 April, 2008, prices touched a historic high of $119.9/barrel. For the year, crude is up by 20.6% till date.

EIA reported earlier this week that U.S. crude oil imports averaged 10.2 million barrels per day last week, up 174,000 barrels per day from the previous week. Traders had anticipated that U.S. crude-oil supplies advanced 950,000 barrels in the week ended 25 April. Crude inventories were boosted by increasing imports. U.S. refineries operated at 85.4% of their operable capacity last week, down 0.2% from the last week.

On the currency markets on Friday, U.S. dollar rallied against most other major currencies. The dollar index, which tracks the performance of the greenback against a basket of currencies, was up 0.4% to 73.53.

On Friday, the job report was out where unemployment rate for April fell to 5% from 5.1% in March. April's unemployment rate was less than the consensus estimate of 5.2%. Nonfarm payrolls for April slipped by 20,000, which is less than the revised decline of 81,000 experienced in March and also less than the 75,000 decline economists expected. Importantly, these figures do not reflect the kind of weakness often associated with a recession.

Against this backdrop, June reformulated gasoline gained 8.82 cents at $2.9664 a gallon and June heating oil rose 10.1 cents at $3.2187 a gallon. June natural gas futures rose 20.4 cents to $10.765 per million British thermal units.

Crude had ended FY 2007 substantially higher by $35 or 57%. It was crude’s biggest yearly gain in five years.
