Reliance Power - Why is TV18 against it ?


Reliance Power: Is The Management Being Vilified For Substantive Reasons?

By Mid January 2008, India's largest IPO till date, the Rs 11500 crore Reliance Power IPO would have opened, and though CNBC and its leadership have been at the forefront of a campaign to avoid the issue, a closer look might suggest beneficiaries lie elsewhere and so the Issue must be successful.

-7000 MW of Power Generating Capacity proposed by Reliance Power will cost Rs 28,000 to Rs 30,000 crore ande become available by 2011.

-Overall Capacity of Reliance Power Will rise to 26000 MW by 2016, and cost Rs 104,000 crore.

-Beyond the Equity element of Rs 11500 crore, Banks and FIs will fund the balance Rs 90,000 crore as Debt. If CNBC is to be believed, then all Banks should have substantial NPAs and possibly close by 2016. So why should we not pull out all our money and stuff under the mattress.

-In a Power Gen project, 95 per cent of the Investment goes into land rest into Equipment. Here we are talking of a collective order book for Siemens, Alstom, Bhel and ABB of the magnitude of Rs 95000 crore which 4-5 times the Revenues these concerns generate in a year.

-This will need Building up of New Power Plants by Bhel, Siemens, Alstom and ABB unless the Equipment gets imported.

-The Power Grid and Transmission Capacity will have to be raised to enable this additional power generated to move. This will imply higher demand for Crompton Greaves, Areva, Bharat Bijlee, Jyoti Structures, Sujana Tower and RPG Transmission.

-There will be additional requirement of Steel Wires, Steel Structurals and fresh production of Steel making capacities to sustain this growth in Demand from the Power-Downstream segements. So Iron Ore Mines and Mining Equipment manufacturers like Revathi, Atlas Copco, TIL and Ingersoll Rand will be favoured.

-Then there will be the producers of electricals Havells, Genus, LNT, Indo Asian Fuse Gear, which will need colossal amounts of circuit breakers, switchgears and modern tripping systems.

-Finally, we will need more Coal mines either in India or Overseas to sustain these Thermal Plants which are proposed to be set up by Reliance Power, and there might be some based upon Gas and Nuclear Fuel, for which separate fuel requirements will have to be met.

-At roughly $ 30 bn of direct investments Reliance Power would have cost about 3 per cent of India's GDP by 2016 and will add about roughly $ 40 bn or 4 per cent of India's additional GDP by 2016.

-Overall success of Reliance Power will imply prosperity for millions of people in the country who have waited for 6 decades to see Light and Employment.

-A success of Reliance Power will also mean a success of the GOI policy to promoter Ultra Mega Power Plants with a single location capacity of 4000 MW and costing anywhere between Rs 16000 to Rs 20000 crore and prime examples are Sasan, Mundhra and Krishnapatnam bagged by Tata Power and Reliance Power.

-Most of these UMPPs will be set up as Special Purpose Vehicles and listed in Overseas nations, minimising risk for local investor and broadbasing investor participation. If SPVs were not there none of the mammoth Real Estate projects being set up by DLF or Unitech go off the plinth, but they are going ahead.

-Reliance Power too is not headed by fools, and so most of their expansions will come under SPVs minimising risk.

-More importantly Promoters and QIP are taking placements at the same price as general investors, so where is the self aggrandisement of Mr. Anil Ambani?

-Even as I write there is a Power cut in Delhi and it has lasted 2 hours a day for most of this Winter and for the past 44 winters I have seen the scenario has been ranging from grim to pitiful.

-I remember standing in Queues to pay power bills in the past, to crooked GOI servants, and these people now work under Reliance Energy and Tata Power Distcoms in Delhi without creating problems for civillians.

-The GOI intends to put up 8 such UMPPs costing Rs 160,000 crore over the next decade. Will all these projects too would be unviable as per CNBC or do we see a massive transformation like China, which set up one Thermal plant every week for the last 5 years?

-Stock valuations are a trade-off between High Initial Equity sold at par or Low Equity sold at premium, to generate better earnings per share for the Investors. It can be argued whether the pricing of Reliance Power is aggressive, to caste motives on the management is incorrect.

-Each and Every Investor has the right to or not to participate in the Reliance Power issue, and thus far no one has put a gun to anyone's temple for putting a application in the IPO. This is a conscious choice each investor can make without recourse to the gigolos at CNBC and the sluts they display daily.

-To the best of my knowledge no journalist ensconced in cushy chairs and luxury clothes have ever had a hard days work setting up a power plant, pulling transmission wires over deserts and hills or dug up mines in sub human conditions. If they had done anything of this magnitude they would not have taken sides on the Reliance Power issue.

-If the guys in the media were to be believed the Mundhra Port would have never happened, neither would have Pipavav and Natural Gas would not have been found by Reliance but by Ongc. That the private sector is thriving and contributing needs to be appreciated and backed up by investors.

-Those who cannot take risks or will not hold out for 10 years have better options in the Power, atleast 20 of them and they would do well to take their money elsewhere rather than be a part of the Valuation, PE, market cap to Sales and Book Value story being popularised by Reliance Power.

-7 years ago TV18 had come on-stage with a bang listed at Rs 1600 a share, today the CNBC guys are rich even after excercising their stock options at ludicrous prices, I think "history got repeated" but those guys instead of repenting are condemning others.

Reliance Power - Udayan Mukherjee


The most awaited event of the Indian primary market calendar is here. Reliance Power may have priced its IPO in the Rs 415-450 band but the active grey market price is Rs 900. This gives Reliance Power a potential listing market capitalisation of Rs 2,00,000 crore. With zero installed capacity today, expected generation capacity of 6,000 megawatts by 2011 and 26,000 MW by 2016. NTPC, in itself a richly valued stock, has an installed capacity of 27,000 MW and commands a similar market cap. The market has simply taken an eight year leap and priced it in the Reliance Power stock today. I find that staggering.

A look at the ratios look even more mind numbing. This IPO money is being raised to execute about 7,000 MW of capacity. That should be done by 2012. That year, if all goes perfectly, Reliance Power will have revenues of Rs 7,700 crore, EPS of under Rs 8 and a book value of Rs 70. At the listing price of Rs 900, the stock would be trading at a 2012 price-earning ratio of 110, a price to book value ratio of 13 and a market cap to sales ratio of 26. These are four-year forward ratios, remember. The ratios moderate somewhat for 2016 but by then much further dilution would have happened to finance the additional capacity so the market cap would balloon substantially.

This is madness. While many explanations abound on how such valuations could be justified, this is so similar to the 100-plus PEs the market gave freely to information technology stocks back in 2000. While all of us know how that story finally ended, we should also remember how long that madness continued. The power madness, too, will end, sector tailwind notwithstanding, but it may continue longer than we think it can before fizzling out. While it lasts, the most expensive stock in the sector will become the valuation benchmark and will pull the others into the clouds. Just remember the old adage: those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

Goldman Sachs - Recession in 2008


Goldman Sachs on Wednesday said it expects the U.S. economy to drop into recession this year, prompting the Federal Reserve to slash benchmark lending rates to 2.5 percent by the third quarter.

In a note to clients, Goldman said real gross domestic product would contract by 1 percent on an annualized basis in both the second and third quarters. For all of 2008, the investment bank said GDP would rise by 0.8 percent.

The unemployment rate will rise to 6.5 percent in 2009 from the current 5 percent, it said.

The weakening economy will force the Fed to lower policy rates by an additional 1.75 percentage points from the current 4.25 percent. Starting in September, the Fed cut rates at the last three meetings of the Federal Open Market Committee, reducing the target rate on loans between banks by 1 percentage point from 5.25 percent.

Market Close: Correction or consolidation ?


A sea saw trading session of market ended marginal in red. Markets took cues from its global counterparts and opened in red. Post that the session was highly volatile. Software and selective power stocks aided the indices. Software is seen some interest on hopes of good results. While auto, pharma, metals, oil and gas and FMCG stocks ended in the red. Mid caps and small caps were the major losers. Markets may take cues from companies quarterly performances as results are awaited. Although the Asian indices ended in green, European indices are trading in red.

There has been big optimism among retailers on IPO specially Reliance. Probably this may be one of the reasons for profit booking as money flow from secondary market to primary market. The hope is stronger cashflows From Middle East and China will prevent the big downsides. However we believe that there is likely to be a flight to safety triggered by the US slippages. The US cut in interest rates possibility is another ray of hope.

Sayaji Hotels is into the hotel and restaurant business. The hotels of the company are located in Indore and Baroda. The restaurant business of the company is managed by a 100% subsidiary 'Sanchi Hotels Pvt Ltd' under the brand name of 'Barbeque-Nation'. The concept is good and we like the business model. Capex plans of the company include setting up a new 4 star hotel in Pune with expected room rental revenues of Rs 3,300 per day. Hotel would come up in Waked near Pune with room inventory of 240 rooms. The stock has rallied on the interest of some big investors. Keep watching this space to know more.

KEI Industries Limited (KEI) is one of the established player and the second largest power cable company in India. KEI is into manufacture of high and low tension cables (HT and LT), control and instrumentation cables, house wires and stainless steel wires. The Indian Power Cable market is estimated at more than Rs 8,500 cr. About 67,000 MW of power generation capacity and 60,000 circuit km of transmission network are proposed to be added by 2012 as per 11th Five Year plan. The expenditure estimated for power generation alone is at Rs 270,000 cr and Rs 69,500 cr for power transmission. The cost of power cables is around 3% of the investment in power generation and 2% for power transmission. This will generate a huge demand for power cables in near future. KEI is growing aggressively by expanding capacity to meet domestic and international demand. On the whole the macro scenario seems to be best for KEI in future. Do read our note on KEI to know more.

Pioneering the SEZ revolution

Key points

  • Leveraging on SEZ expertise: Mahindra Lifespace Developers (MLD) is the only private sector player to have an operational SEZ, the Chennai SEZ, in the country. Leveraging on this rich expertise, the company is planning to develop one more SEZ in Jaipur. For this it has already acquired 2,100 acre of land. It expects to acquire the balance land for the project by FY2008 end.
  • More upside possible from Karla and Chennai SEZ extensions: MLD also has plans to develop another 3,000-acre multi-product SEZ in Karla and to extend its Chennai SEZ by 1,980 acre. However, it has acquired only 100 acre of land for the Chennai project so far. Hence, we have not considered these two projects in our valuation. Any development on these projects would lead to an upward revision in our valuation.
  • Margins to improve: Given the higher revenue contribution from the Chennai SEZ's non-processing area and better realisation for the Jaipur SEZ's processing area, we expect MLD's EBITDA margin to improve to 55.2% by FY2010 from 14.3% in FY2007. Consequently, we expect MLD's earnings to grow at a CAGR of 179.2% over FY2007-10.
  • Other initiatives: MLD also plans to develop space aggregating 2.7 mn sq ft over the next few years. These projects contribute Rs83 per share to our valuation. MLD is also implementing the Tirupur Water Supply and Sewerage project through its subsidiary Mahindra Infrastructure Developers. It is a 30-year BOOT project and is expected to generate an annual income of Rs6-8 crore.
  • Attractive valuation: We value the stock using the SOTP method. Given MLD's operational expertise in SEZ and premium brand in the other verticals, we value the Chennai and Jaipur SEZs and the other planned developments at 1.0x NAV of Rs1,038 per share. We value the balance land for which its has no development plans in the short to medium term at Rs58 per share, ie at a discount to the current market price. We initiate Buy recommendation on MLD with a price target of Rs1,096.

Earlier, however, Asian stocks managed to shake off some of the fears, mainly on hopes that new US tax rebates may be in the works to boost consumers. Key benchmark indices in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, China, Taiwan and South Korea were up by between 0.41% to 1.53%.

The Dow Jones industrial average plunged 238.42 points, or 1.86%, at 12,589.07 on Tuesday, 8 January 2008. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index lost 25.99 points, or 1.84%, at 1,390.19. The Nasdaq Composite Index shed 58.95 points, or 2.36%, at 2,440.51.

Market to drift lower


The market may edge lower tracking overnight fall in US stocks. US stocks tumbled on Tuesday, 8 January 2008, after a warning by phone company AT&T of soft consumer spending sparked a new round of recession fears. In addition, Countrywide Financial shares plummeted on growing alarm about the No. 1 mortgage lender's financial health, dragging down shares in the financial sector.

The Dow Jones industrial average plunged 238.42 points, or 1.86%, at 12,589.07. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index lost 25.99 points, or 1.84%, at 1,390.19. The Nasdaq Composite Index shed 58.95 points, or 2.36%, at 2,440.51.

Market men expect stepping up of buying by foreign institutional investors (FIIs). With the beginning of the new calendar year, FIIs are expected to make fresh fund allocations. FIIs pumped in Rs 71486.50 crore or $17.23 billion in Indian equities in calendar year 2007.

As per provisional data, FIIs bought shares worth a net Rs 570.65 crore on Tuesday, 8 January 2008. Domestic funds bought shares worth Rs 92.08 crore on that day.

According to data released by the NSE, FIIs were net sellers of index futures to the tune of Rs 629.39 crore and bought index options worth Rs 259.54 crore. They were net buyers of stock futures to the tune of Rs 232.42 crore and sold stock options worth Rs 10.49 crore.

Stock-specific activity may rule the roost in the near term based on expectations of results of individual firms. Earnings surprises hold the key for the market in the near term.

Telecom sector is expected to continue to post strong earnings growth in Q3 December 2007 on the back of rising new subscriber additions whereas healthy order book will ensure that capital goods firms such as Larsen & Toubro and Bharat Heavy Electricals will turn out good performance for yet another quarter.

Media sector, too, is expected to post decent to strong growth on the back of higher advertisement rates. On the other hand, the IT sector is likely to be hit by the appreciation of the rupee against the dollar.

Steel sector is expected to show strong growth on the back of volume growth and higher price realizations. The performance of the auto sector is expected to be sluggish due to sluggish sales and pressure on margins on account of higher input costs. The banking sector is expected see increase in margins due to cut in deposit rates, and higher fee based income. Increase in costs and dismal volume growth is expected to weight on the performance of the cement sector.

IT bellwether Infosys Technologies kickstarts the reporting season on Friday, 11 January 2008.

Meanwhile, Reliance Power, a 50% subsidiary of Reliance Energy (REL) will raise over Rs 11000 crore from India's biggest ever IPO scheduled to open for subscription next week.

Recent economic data has raised concerns that the US economy may be headed towards a recession. A US recession may not impact India’s economic growth in a big way given that domestic demand is a key driver of the Indian economy. India's economy is expected to post strong growth for a long period due to favourable demographics. Economists also reckon that a healthy investment cycle will continue to support growth through a self-perpetuating cycle of income creation, savings and investment.

Though the Indian economy may be relatively insulated from the US recession, any risk aversion globally causing setback in global markets, may cast its shadow on the Indian bourses.

Pre Open Market Commentary - Jan 9 2008


The Indian market today is likely to have a negative opening on the back of weak cues from global markets. Yesterday, the Indian market closed with modest gains after facing the volatility throughout the trading session. The market opened with handsome gains but was unable to sustain the momentum at higher levels and fell. But the market came off sharply towards the end of the session to close with marginal gains.

Global cues could hurt opening


Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose their common sense.

Can the equity markets in India and other developing countries continue to be resilient in the face of mounting evidence that the US is heading for a recession sooner or later? We see a slight fall at the opening bell, following the overnight crack on Wall Street and some weakness in Asian markets. However, the bulls may just rebound as Asian markets have recovered from steep falls early in the morning. The trend later in the day will be dictated by movement in global markets. Expect the intra-day gyrations to continue unabated, as investors are looking for some key results before taking a call. Lots of stock centric action is also expected. The small- and mid-cap space may remain in the limelight one way or the other.

Meanwhile, the results season is well underway and a few earnings reports are already out. This morning, IT firm iGate Global Solutions has come out with what seems to be good set of numbers. But, the company has applied to regulators for delisting and is awaiting their approval. The company has set a delisting price of Rs410 per share. The stock closed yesterday at Rs397 and hasn't moved at all in the past one month. Another software company, Mastek will announce its results later in the day. This will set the stage for the biggest IT result - that of Infosys - on Friday. The market is eagerly awaiting whether Infosys numbers will be better than the last two quarters and whether it will give a positive outlook for the year. Some experts are negative on the sector over the long-term, barring a few who might outperform, while others are not so pessimistic after all. Lehman Brothers has apparently upgraded all the top IT firms ahead of their results.

Metal stocks could be under some pressure amid reports that the Government is considering sifting to an Ad Valorem rates of royalty on all sorts of ores. Unitech, HFCL, BPL, RCOM, Idea and Shyam Tele could gain as a financial daily says that these companies will get LoIs from the DoT soon. What they will do with it remains to be seen. 3i Infotech, Aztecsoft and MindTree will attract attention amid reports of some M&A action. TVS Motor might gain as the Supreme Court has refused to stay the sales of its 125 cc bike, the Flame.

Wall Street has never had such a bad start to a new year. Year-to-date, the S&P 500 has lost about 5.3%, the Dow is down 5.1% and the Nasdaq has shed 8%. There is a school of thought that believes that India could be the least affected by a steep slowdown in the US, as its growth story is more rooted in local factors. Rising consumption coupled with the ever-increasing investments in infrastructure will continue to drive profits of India Inc. Add to this a possible rationalization in direct tax rates and a possible rate reduction later in the year and the story looks even more compelling. Having said that, a protracted recession in the US and a global economic slowdown will surely have some dampening effect on India.

Results Today: Axis Bank, iGate Global, Mastek, Sayaji Hotels, South India Bank, Dolat Investments and Compact Disc India.

Saurashtra Cement has said that the Gujarat High Court has approved the CDR Scheme for restructuring of the debt of the company's Secured Lenders. A certified copy of the order of the Gujarat High Court is awaited.

SREI Infrastructure Finance has launched the first Shariat compliant instrument, a US$50mn facility arranged and book run by HSBC. The syndication has received overwhelming response from investors in Asia and Middle East, says SREI Infrastructure Finance.

DBG Retail Holdings, a 100% subsidiary of Koutons Retail India, plans to acquire 51% or more stake in Touchwood International, the owner of 'Upper Class' brand and which has presence in the ladies and gents segment.

Sarda Energy & Minerals says that due to worker unrest, the operations at its iron ore mines have been suspended temporarily. Meanwhile, the company has signed a MOU with the Government of Chhattisgarh for installing a 1100 MW Thermal Power Plant in the state.

US stocks tumbled on Tuesday, continuing the grim start to the new year, on growing concerns that the world's biggest economy could slip into a recession amid the current turmoil in housing and credit markets. The Dow Jones Industrial Average had its worst first five trading days of the year ever.

A worse-than-forecast home sales and a warning by AT&T on weaker customer spending sent the Standard & Poor's 500 Index to the lowest level since March. AT&T declined the most in almost five years after CEO Randall Stephenson said the biggest US telecom firm faces softness in its consumer business.

Countrywide Financial tumbled the most since October 1987 on concern that the largest US mortgage lender is short of cash.

The S&P 500 dropped 26 points, or 1.8%, to 1,390.19, the lowest since March 16. The Dow slumped 238 points, or 1.9%, to 12,589.07. The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 59 points, or 2.4%, to 2,440.51.

US stock indices were volatile throughout the session, but turned lower in the last hour on a slew of bad news - including AT&T's warning on its consumer business, questions about the financial health of Countrywide Financial and a report showing a spike in consumer credit.

Market breadth was negative. Nine stocks dropped for every two that rose on the New York Stock Exchange.

All the three US indexes are now down 10% from the highs hit in November, on a closing level. This is construed as a correction in technical parlance. Technical analysts say following recent losses, the Dow and the S&P 500 have dropped treacherously close to critical support. The million-dollar question is will this lead to further crack or induce fresh buying?

The National Association of Realtors said that contracts to sell existing homes fell in November by a steeper-than-expected margin. The group also pushed back its forecast for a price rebound to 2009.

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said that housing market problems are not easing. Boston Fed president Eric Rosengren said that the US could see the longest housing sector correction in 50 years.

Treasury prices rallied, lowering the corresponding yields, as investors sought safety in government debt, lowering the yield on the 10-year note to 3.77% from 3.83% late on Monday. In currency trading, the dollar fell versus the euro and gained against the yen.

US light crude oil for February delivery rose $1.24 to settle at $96.23 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. COMEX gold for February delivery rallied $18.30 to $880.30 an ounce.

European shares closed higher. The pan-European Dow Jones Stoxx 600 index rose 0.6% to 353.42. The French CAC-40 gained 0.8% at 5,495.67, while the UK's FTSE 100 added 0.3% to 6,356.50 and the German DAX 30 climbed 0.4% to 7,849.99.

Asian markets were trading slightly lower, but had recovered smartly from early lows.

Bulls await key results

A historic trading session ended with positive bias amid volatile trading session. For the third consecutive day markets managed to end in green. Benchmark Sensex hit the 21,000 mark for the first time and took almost 49 trading session to cover the 1,000 points.

However, after touching the milestone key indices turned choppy and Sensex swung over 350 points and Nifty index over 130 points between their days high and low. The mid-cap and the small-cap stocks looked to be losing steam as traders preferred to book some profit. Finally, 30-share Sensex closed at 20,873 gaining 60 points and Nifty ended at 6,287 up 8 points.

IT stocks were in the limelight ahead of Infosys result on January 11. Heavyweight Satyam Computer rose over 2.6% to Rs424, Infosys was up 1.5% to Rs1662, Wipro gained 1.5% to Rs489 and i-Flex added 0.8% to Rs1466.

HDIL
Cmp: Rs 1,210
Target Price: Rs 2,076

ICICI Securities has initiated coverage on the Mumbai-based real estate player, HDIL, with a ‘strong’ buy. The recommendation is based on the company’s ‘immense potential’ based on its strong project pipeline and imminent upsides from the GVK Slum Rehabilitation Scheme (SRS) and upcoming special economic zones (SEZs). HDIL has presence across all key segments — residential, commercial, retail, SEZs and particularly SRS. Presence in the prime Mumbai property market adds to its advantage. HDIL has development pipeline of approximately 120 million sq ft (excluding GVK SRS and SEZs). “HDIL is trading at a significant 45% discount to our NAV estimate of Rs 444 billion (Rs 44,400) or Rs 2,076 per share. Based on our financial year (FY) 2008 expected (E), FY09E and FY10E EPS estimate of Rs 39.4, Rs 67.6 and Rs 92.2, it trades at a price-to-earning multiple of 28.9, 16.9 and 12.4 times, respectively. We expect revenue and earnings CAGR of 56% and 53% respectively over the next three years,” the brokerage said in a note to clients. Over the next three years, profit margins are expected to remain high in the range of 43-47%, as it is using completion method of accounting, which leads to higher margins getting booked in the coming years on the projects currently under execution.

Exide Industries
Cmp: Rs 75
Target price: NA

CLSA is positive on Exide Industries, as it feels the company has strong growth potential in the retail market. The French broking house says that the rights issue will ensure sufficient funds for its growth plan and investments in the insurance venture without any increase in debt. It feels that acquisition of a lead smelter in Maharashtra will help in key sourcing of raw material in the medium term. Describing it as its top picks in the mid-cap universe, it has valued Exide’s stake in ING Vysya Life at Rs 16 per share, based on FY09 estimates and net of this, the stock is trading at 16.5 times FY 2009 . “With pick up in retail sales, Exide’s volume growth will remain strong for the next two years. In FY07, while sales grew 35%, volume growth was 20%. Revenue growth is ahead of volume growth due to higher lead prices,” the brokerage said in a note. Exide has submarine battery orders till March 2009 and this would enable it to maintain its margins even in an environment of high lead prices. Exide is one of the five companies globally with capability to make batteries for both Russian and German submarines. It, however, maintains that a sharp increase in lead price remains the key risk for the company.


Karuturi Networks
CMP: Rs 431
Target price: NA

Macquarie Research has termed Karuturi Networks as an ‘emerging leader’ based on the potential for huge international demand for fresh cut flowers. It feels that the growth of an organised retail industry in India (which is currently in a nascent stage of development) may lead to strong growth potential for cut-rose producers.

The stock is currently trading at 18 times trailing 12 months EPS based on historical earnings. The global supply-demand mismatch is considered to be positive for rose producers. Rise in per capita income and strong demand during festivals and Valentine’s Day are fuelling huge flower consumption in India. “The Indian floriculture sector is estimated to expand 40% each year (significantly higher than the global average) and almost 85% of the demand is estimated to be from roses,” said the brokerage in its note to clients. On the downside, it says that any major epidemic or failure of monsoons may affect production of roses. Also an international ban on imports from India/Ethiopia due to the outbreak of an epidemic or political instability could affect growth in revenue.

Panacea Biotech
CMP: Rs 422
Target price: Rs 513

Merrill Lynch says investors should ‘buy’ the stock as Panacea’s increased revenue visibility due to recent doubling of vaccine capacity (to 2 million doses) will drive growth. According to the brokerage, the stock is at a significant 25-30% discount to the sector average and valuations are attractive at 12 times FY09E and 9.5 times FY10E EPS. It says that the company has got WHOnod for two vaccines and may get pentavalent approval shortly. The combined demand of all combination pediatric vaccines worldwide was $600 million in 2005 and is estimated to grow up to $1.6 billion by 2012.

Gold at all time high


Gold prices close at $880 per ounce as commodities rally

Precious metals ended considerably higher today, Tuesday, 08 January, 2008. Gold prices struck a new all time record as oil prices increased and dollar traded mixed against its rivals. Increasing tensions between US and Iran added to the rally. Silver prices too gained.

Gold generally moves in the opposite direction of the U.S. currency. Gold, as a dollar-denominated commodity, suffers from dollar strength. Gold gained 31% in FY 2007 while oil jumped 57% and the dollar fell 9.5% against the euro.

Comex Gold for February delivery today rose $18.30 (2.1%) to close at $880.3 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. During intraday trading prices rose as high as $883.8/ounce. Last week, gold prices gained $23/ounce (2.7%). This year, prices have gained 5.1% till date.

Prices had touched $872 during intraday trading on 3 January, 2008 and finally had closed at $869.3/ounce. That closing price was the highest price after a record $873 that gold hit on 21 January, 1980.

Comex Silver futures for March delivery today rose 52.5 cents (3.4%) to $15.815 an ounce. Prices touched 26 year high on 7 November, 2007, after reaching $16.275. Silver has gained 5.9% in 2008. The metal had climbed 15.5% in FY 2007. The metal also has gained for seven straight years.

Gold witnessed the greatest annual gain in twenty eight years by gaining $200/ounce (31%) in FY 2007. In 2006, silver had jumped 46% while gold gained 23%.

In the currency market today, the dollar was mixed, as investors weighed weak home-sales data against remarks from a U.S. Federal Reserve official suggesting he wouldn't support a deeper cut to interest rates. The dollar index, which tracks the performance of the greenback against a basket of other currencies, edged down 0.1% to 76.095.

In the energy market today crude oil rose more than $1 a barrel in New York on speculation that a government report will show U.S. inventories fell for an eighth week and as investors purchased commodities as an inflation hedge.

Gold has traditionally been used as a safe-haven asset against rising inflation. Investor sentiments are boosted by the fact that gold and silver are alternate sources of good investment in the face of declining dollar and rising energy prices. Rising crude increases inflationary pressures and vice versa. On the other hand strong dollar reduces the appeal of the metal as alternate source of investment.

Gold had climbed 31% in FY 2007 as lower interest rates had sent the dollar tumbling, and crude-oil prices rose to a record.

The Fed reduced federal funds rate three times in FY 2007. The current interest rate stands at 4.5%. The Fed also lowered its discount rate twice, the interest it charges on direct loans it makes to banks, and currently it stands at 4.75%. With these interest rate cuts, dollar has been tumbling down. Market anticipates that there will be more rate cut in the coming year.

Gold is expected to rally to all-time highs in the first quarter in FY 2008 as higher oil prices and a weaker dollar will continue to boost demand. Market expects another phase o interest rate cut in the end of the month. But gold is slated to average around $800/ounce in FY 2008 as against $696/ounce in FY 2007.

In the currency market today, the dollar ended mixed. The dollar index, which tracks the performance of the greenback against a basket of other currencies, edged down 0.1% to 76.095.

Brent crude oil for February settlement today fell $1.15 (1.2%) to $95.54 on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The London benchmark rose 54% in FY 2007, the most since 1999 when prices more than doubled.
