Daily Call - Aug 12 2008


The first Indian individual gold at the Olympics gave the nation a reason to cheer after a long time , specially after those bundles of notes in the Parliament had made us hang our heads in shame though the perpetrators of the crime, who bribed, still roam with an invincible air.



The markets did well to hold on to its opening gains. The appointment of independent directors to the Oil India board also helped the sentiment and the Indices, as ONGC and GAIL climbed higher on expectation that the unlisted oil major would see its IPO in October. The open interest addition in stock futures in the August series so far is the highest since January this year, which indicates that the rally is attracting serious interest. This also makes the markets vulnerable to any serious negative triggers, as unwinding positions could hurt. Keep stop losses and don't lower them. The gap created by the Sensex between 15367 and 15228 could act as support. The IIP numbers will decide which way we move.

June 2008 industrial production data to set direction


The market will today take direction from the industrial production data for June 2008. Cues from Asian markets were mixed. US stocks rose on Monday, 11 August 2008, as oil prices closed lower for a sixth day, improving prospects for consumer and business spending.

Oil prices fell on Monday as a drop in crude imports by No. 2 consumer China outweighed concerns over supply disruptions stemming from the conflict between Russia and Georgia. US crude settled down 75 cents at $114.45 a barrel, after touching a low of $112.72 a barrel.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 48.03 points, or 0.41%, to 11,782.35 on Monday, 11 August 2008. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index gained 9.00 points, or 0.69%, to 1,305.32. The Nasdaq Composite Index jumped 25.85 points, or 1.07%, to 2,439.95.

Meanwhile, a sharp fall in oil prices from last month’s record high above $147 a barrel has raised hopes for cooling inflation and easing of upward pressure on interest rates. Inflation hit a fresh 13-year high of 12.01% in the year through 26 July 2008. The Reserve Bank of India, at its quarterly policy review late month raised repo rate by 50 basis points to a seven-year high of 9% to curb inflation and dampen inflationary expectations. RBI also raised the cash reserve ratio (CRR), the proportion of funds that banks must keep on deposit with it, by 25 basis points to 9%.

From a low of 12,575.80 on 16 July 2008, the barometer index BSE Sensex rose 2,928.12 points or 23.28% to 15,503.92 on 11 August 2008, led by recovery in global markets triggered by a sharp fall in oil and commodity prices.

As per provisional data released by the stock exchanges, foreign funds on Monday, 11 August 2008, bought shares worth a net Rs 280.61 crore. Domestic funds bought shares worth a net Rs 505.30 crore.

Meanwhile, the government on Monday, 11 August 2008, approved 10 road projects to be build with the help of private firms at a cost of Rs 10507 crore. The projects, spread over eight states, are part a plan to significantly improve infrastructure in the country.

Today's Pick - TV18


We recommend a ‘buy’ in Television Eighteen India from a short-term horizon. From the charts of the stock we note that its intermediate-term downtrend, which began from the early January high of Rs 599 ended at the 52-week low of Rs 184 on 18 July. The area around Rs 200 is a strong support from a long-term perspective as well.

The stock has been on short-term uptrend from this trough. During the course of this rally, the stock has moved above the 21 and 50-day moving average lines. The momentum indicators in both the daily and the weekly chart are beginning to look up.

We are bullish on the stock in the short-term. We anticipate the stock’s up move to prolong until it hits our price target of Rs 280 in the forthcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can buy the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 233.

Eye on IIP, ear on SEBI!


Don't miss all the beautiful colors of the rainbow looking for that pot of gold.”

We talked about triggers and aiming for the target at the right time. Well, the bulls did just that with the Sensex and the Nifty climbing another 2% each. A happy coincidence was when Mr. Abhinav Bindra did India proud by hitting the bull's eye (or was it opening the bull’s eye) at the Beijing Olympics in the 10-metre rifle shootout. His is the first ever individual gold medal in the Olympics for India. Hopefully, his feat will inspire many more Indians to attain sporting glory in the years to come.

Coming back to the markets, many games continue and investors may take heart that they are winning in some gains. The undertone has certainly changed for the better over the past few days thanks to the steep drop in oil prices, which are off quite a bit from the all-time high of $147 per barrel. This is the single biggest factor that has perked up global equity markets. The positive trend may persist for some time if crude oil remains subdued, or falls further. Then you will hear theories about how a drop in oil price means demand is slowing; followed by how the indices tend to fall when demand drops etc. For now enjoy the positives, which include the correction in industrial commodities and revival in monsoon.

Speaking of macro-economic factors, the Government will release the industrial production numbers for the month of June. According to most estimates, the data is expected to be better than expected. In May the IIP growth touched a six-year low of 3.8%. For June, expectations are of a 5-6% growth rate as against 8.9% in the same month last year. A good monsoon may help shore up demand for manufactured goods, though rising interest rates are a cause for worry.

Given the mixed set of global cues, we expect a cautious to a slightly positive opening. The trend may turn sideways ahead of the IIP data. The bulls are likely to extend their shopping spree if the numbers are indeed encouraging. On the flip side, a negative surprise may spook the sentiment. Although the trend will largely remain positive, we do not rule out some cooling after the recent spurt. Beware of the small-caps and mid-caps as these scrips tend to be highly volatile and less reliable.

FIIs were net buyers of Rs2.8bn (provisional) in the cash segment on Monday and the local funds pumped in Rs5.05bn. In the F&O segment, the foreign funds were net buyers of Rs8.16bn. On Friday, FIIs were net buyers of Rs791mn in the cash segment. Mutual funds were net sellers of Rs1.31bn.

Market breadth was positive. Almost five stocks rose for every two that dropped on the New York Stock Exchange.

Small caps gained too, with the Russell 2000 index up 2.3%.

US stocks slipped early as oil prices rallied on worries about supply disruptions in energy-rich Central Asia, amid the military conflict between Russia and Georgia. But crude resumed last week's slide after Iran called for renewed nuclear talks and China reported a decline in crude imports.

The turnaround in oil prices helped stocks rebound. Oil prices then erased half of their losses late in the session, and the stock market followed suit. The stock advance also seemed to lose momentum after the Fed released a study that showed 75% of US banks have tightened lending standards on home mortgages and other loans.

The advance will be tested later this week, when the retail sales and consumer inflation reports are released. Tuesday brings readings on the June trade balance in the morning and the July Treasury budget in the afternoon. Swiss bank UBS reports its results on Tuesday.
