Stock-specific action to continue


Stock-specific activity is likely to continue in the near term based on first quarter result announcement or expectations about first quarter results of individual firms. Many front line companies such as State Bank of India, Bharti Airtel, Tata Motors and Tata Steel, are still to announce their results.

Market loses ground as RBI hikes key rates


Stocks lost ground during the last week of July 2010 as the central bank increased interest rates to control inflation. Sustained buying by foreign funds, revival of monsoon rains and latest data showing easing of food inflation, however, prevented a sharp decline.

Foreign funds continue to mop up Indian stocks. Foreign funds have bought shares worth a net Rs 8109.64 crore this month (till 29 July 2010), absorbing selling by domestic institutional investors. Domestic funds have sold shares worth a net Rs 6193.15 crore this month (till 29 July 2010), as per data from the stock exchanges.

Market drifts lower on weak global cues; bank stocks rise


The key benchmark indices edged lower as global stocks fell on weak economic data. The BSE 30-share Sensex fell 123.71 points or 0.69%, off close to 130 points from the day's high and up close to 30 points from the day's low. Realty, FMCG, capital goods and IT stocks fell. Index heavyweight Reliance Industries (RIL) gave up initial gains. The market breadth turned negative in contrast to a strong breadth earlier in the day.

Petronet LNG


We recommend a buy in the stock of Petronet LNG from a short-term perspective. The stock jumped 10 per cent on July 29, conclusively breaking out of its medium-term sideways consolidation range between Rs 76 and Rs 86. With this break through the stock has resumed its long-term uptrend and also reinforced the bullish momentum. We notice that there is an increase in volume over the past three trading sessions. The stock is hovering well above its 21- and 50-day moving averages. The 14-day relative strength index is featuring in the bullish zone and the weekly RSI is entered in to this zone from the neutral region. Both the daily and weekly moving average convergence divergence oscillators are featuring in the positive territory signalling upward momentum. The stock's intermediate-term uptrend trend-line is in tact. Our short-term outlook on the stock is bullish. We anticipate the stock to move up further until it hits our price target of Rs 97 and 100 in the forthcoming trading session. Traders with short-term perspective can buy the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 92.

Curtains down on conviction!


Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct. - Thomas Carlyle.

It’s may be curtains down for the famous bull fight in Catalonia, Spain. The blood sport will now be banned throughout Catalonia from January 2012. The semi-autonomous region is the first mainland part of Spain to outlaw bullfighting. But coming to the bourses, the fight between the bulls and bears will continue. Recent behaviour on the street suggests both camps lack conviction. The ferocity of the bulls is nowhere in sight except occasionally on some side counters.

Dow is the only key index to end in the green

US stocks kicked off the day in the green on Tuesday, 27 July 2010 riding on the back of an upward guidance from a key Dow component. But stocks slipped in the red following a disappointing consumer confidence data. Nevertheless, stocks managed to inch up in the green once again before closing. But it was only Dow that managed to end the day in the green. The other two major indices finished in the red.

Market seen volatile ahead of RBI's monetary policy


The market is likely to open higher following positive global cues. Trading of S&P CNX Nifty futures on the Singapore stock exchange indicated that the Nifty could rise 22.50 points at the opening bell. However, volatility may arise ahead of the Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy reviewed today, 27 July 2010.



Analysts expect another 25 basis points rate hike from the central bank on Tuesday, 27 July 2010, aimed at anchoring inflation expectations. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on 2 July 2010, hiked the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.5% from 5.25%, with immediate effect. It also hiked the reverse repo rate, at which it absorbs excess cash from the banking system, by an equal 25 basis points to 4% from 3.75%. The central bank said the latest rate hike was a part of the calibrated exit from the expansionary monetary policy.

The RBI is also expected to provide an outline on new banking licenses at Tuesday's quarterly monetary policy review. Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had announced in this year's budget that the central bank would consider issuing fresh banking licenses to business houses and also to non-banking finance companies (NBFCs).

The Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Panel on Friday, 23 July 2010, forecast 8.5% growth in GDP in the fiscal year that ends in March 2011 (FY 2011). It expects 4.5% growth in farm output in FY 2011. The headline inflation will be at 6.5% by March 2011, the panel said in a report. The report also said net capital inflows would be $73 billion.

Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council C. Rangarajan said fertiliser subsidy bill must come down and diesel prices could be freed once inflation begins to come down.

Volatility may also remain high in the near future as traders rollover positions in derivatives segment from July 2010 series to the August 2010 series ahead of the expiry of the near-month July 2010 contracts on Thursday, 29 July 2010.

Ashok Leyland, Glenmark Pharma, GTL, HCL Technologies, Hindustan Unilever, JSW Steel, Larsen & Toubro, Oil India, Patni Computers, Reliance Industries, among others will announce their April – June results today, 27 July 2010.

On the corporate front, the combined net profit of a total of 509 companies fell 14% to Rs 24779 crore on 18.50% rise in sales to Rs 320364 crore in Q1 June 2010 over Q1 June 2009.

Most Asian markets were trading higher today, 27 July 2010, as better- than-estimated new home sales in the US boosted the prospects for global economic growth. The key benchmark indices in Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, and Indonesia were up by between 0.13% to 0.62%. But, the key benchmark indices in China, Taiwan and Singapore were down 0.38% to 0.10%.

US stocks extended gains on Monday, 26 July 2010 as sentiment was boosted by a surge in new home sales and higher company earnings.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 100.81 points, or 0.97%, to a two-month high of 10,525.43. The Nasdaq composite index gained 26.96 points, or 1.19%, to 2,296.43, while S&P 500 index added 12.35 points, or 1.12%, to 1,115.01.

Back home, the annual monsoon rains were 7% below normal during the period from 1 June 2010 to 26 July 2010, improving rapidly from a deficit of 16% on 19 July 2010 as the rain-bearing monsoon winds ended a weak phase in the middle of the month.

The south west monsoon is important for India as about 60% of the country's farmlands are rain-fed and more than half of the workforce is employed in the agriculture sector. The weather office expects this year's monsoon rains to be at 102% of the long-period average. Good monsoon rains would help raise farm output, boost rural incomes and lower food inflation.

The key benchmark indices edged lower on Monday, 26 July 2010, as European stocks moved off highs and as US index futures fell. The BSE 30-share Sensex fell 110.93 points or 0.61% to 18,020.05 and the S&P CNX Nifty fell 30.50 points or 0.56% to 5,418.60.

As per provisional data from the stock exchanges, foreign funds bought equities worth a net Rs 196.32 crore and domestic funds dumped shares worth a net Rs 718.87 crore on 26 July 2010.

Focus on RBI and results!


The ability to focus attention on important things is a defining characteristic of intelligence. - Robert J. Shiller

Given the global cues, we may be in for a positive start. But the market is likely to pay more attention to what the RBI has to say. For containing the inflation persistence and anchoring inflation expectations, anti-inflationary monetary policy actions become a necessity," the RBI mentioned. We expect the central bank to continue its gradual normalization of monetary policy by hiking both the repo and reverse repo rates by 25bps today.

Tata Elxsi


We recommend a sell in the stock of Tata Elxsi from a short-term perspective. It is evident from the charts of the stock that after encountering a significant long-term resistance in the zone between Rs 340 and Rs 350 in March 2010 itstarted to decline. Since then, the stock has been on a medium-term downtrend. Moreover, it met with twin resistance (down trendline and resistance level) around Rs 290 in early July and it had resumed its medium-term downtrend. On July 26, the stock tumbled 5 per cent, breaching its 21 and 50-day moving averages decisively. The volume traded was above average on that session. The daily relative strength index has entered in to the bearish zone from the neutral region and weekly RSI is slipping towards this zone in the neutral region. After signalling a sell, the daily moving average convergence divergence oscillator is entering in to the negative territory implying downward momentum. Considering that the stock's medium-term down trend-line is intact, our short-term forecast on the stock is bearish. We expect the stock to decline further until it hits our price target of Rs 250 or Rs 240 in the approaching trading sessions. Short-term traders can sell the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 276.

Interest rate sensitive stocks slide ahead of RBI's policy review; Maruti tanks


The key benchmark indices edged lower as European stocks moved off highs and as US index futures fell. Closer home, caution prevailed ahead of the central bank's quarterly policy review on Tuesday, 27 July 2010 and as investors awaited key first quarter results. The first quarter results of Larsen & Toubro (L&T), Reliance Industries (RIL) and Hindustan Unilever (HUL) are due on Tuesday 27 July 2010. The BSE Sensex settled a tad above the psychological 18,000 mark after falling below that mark for a brief period in late trade.

Asian stocks mostly up


Gains extend following the stress test results of European banks

Asian stocks mostly rose today; following Wall Street higher as risk appetite remained firm following the not so bad stress test results of European banks. With only 7 of the total 91 banks having failing the test, the US markets had raced up ahead of the weekends. This trickled into markets in Asia right from the start and ideas that strong earnings season would continue this week also fueled some optimism in the regional benchmarks. However, the commodity prices appeared to be softening after runaway gains in the last few days and DOW futures also slipped in red in the electronic trading, making it quite clear that some profit selling could be seen in the markets after last week's steep climb.
