No new gas connections


Faced with mounting losses, Indian Oil Corp, the nation's largest fuel retailer, has 'temporarily' stopped giving new domestic cooking gas (LPG) connections, a move that has led a wait list of over 2 lakh.

"We have not bought new cylinders for almost one year now due to cash crunch (and so) we do not have equipment to give new connections," IOC Chairman Sarthak Behuria told reporters here.

IOC loses Rs 338.53 on sale of every 14.2 kg LPG cylinder and its daily loss on sale of the domestic fuel is about Rs 33 crore.

"We do not have working capital to service new consumers. So temporarily we have stopped issuing new connections," Behuria said. "Consumers are welcome to enrol but we have not given new connections since April."

Behuria said the move has led to a wait list of over two lakh consumers. "These are difficult times. We are faced with huge working capital shortage."

IOC, which has 56 per cent of the over 9.8 crore LPG consumers in the country, is projected to lose Rs 1,21,015 crore on sale of petrol, diesel, domestic LPG and kerosene in the current fiscal as government has not allowed it to raise retail prices in line with rise in cost.

The company also also resorted other measures to shore up its working capital including asking dealers to pay for supplies in advance and stopping consumer credits.

"We are also trying to restrict diversion (of domestic LPG) for commercial use," Behuria said.

The subsidised domestic LPG cylinder often finds way to hotels and restaurants and industries and automobiles who are supposed to use market priced gas.

Market expected to open positive


Positive close in US markets and firm Asian indices in morning trades may help the market open in the green. However, worries about FIIs remaining net sellers of equities in the domestic market and recent spike in crude oil prices could force the players to remain on the sidelines. The Nifty on the downside may dip to 4150 while on the upside it may test 4260. The Sensex has a likely support at 13600 and may face resistance at 14100.

US indices bounced back in a late session rally on Tuesday with the Dow Jones advanced by 266 points at 11398, the Nasdaq added 55 points to close at 2320.

Most of the Indian ADRs posted gains on the US bourses on Tueday. VSNL led the pack with the gains of 6.09%, while Satyam surged 6.09%. Tata Motors, Infosys. Wipro, ICICI Bank, Rediff, HDFC Bank and Patni Computer gained over 1-5% each. However, MTNL fell over 2.74% and Dr Reddy lost 2.06%.

Oil prices fell below $121 on Tuesday aafter OPEC president says there is adequate supply and prices are much too high. The Nymex light crude oil for September delivery slipped by $2.54 to close at $122.19 a barrel. In the commodity space, the Comex gold for December delivery tumbled $11.40 to settle at $926.40 an ounce.

Crude drops, bullion drop


Bullion metal prices dropped to its low levels in almost a month's time today, Tuesday, 29 July, 2008. Prices fell as the crude prices continue to tumble and the dollar index rose. Silver prices also fell for the day.

Comex Gold for August delivery fell $11.2 (1.2%) to close at $916.5 ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It fell to a low of $913.8 during intra day trading. Yesterday, the yellow metal registered marginal gains of 90 cents. Last week, it ended lower by $30 (3.2%). On 17 March, 2008 prices had skyrocketed to a high of $1,034/ounce. But prices have dropped since then.

This year, gold prices have gained 9.6% till date against a 8.4% drop for the dollar against the euro. Gold prices ended June, 2008 with a gain of 4.1%. The yellow metal ended second quarter with a marginal gain of 0.7%. In May, it ended with a gain of higher by $22.5 (2.5%). Before May, for April, prices closed lower by 6.3%.

For first quarter prices gained 10.7%. In January, prices gained 11%, the highest monthly gain since April 2006. For February, it gained 6%. But in March, prices succumbed and fell by 5.5%.

On Monday, Comex silver futures for September delivery fell 9 cents (0.46%) to $17.375 an ounce. Silver has gained 18.2% in 2008 till date. For the second quarter, it had gained a paltry 1.4%.

Silver prices ended the month of May 2008 with a gain of 2.7%. For April, it closed lower by 5.5%. Silver had gained 16% in Q1. In January this year itself, prices climbed 14%. In February, it gained another 15%. For March, it ended lower by 13%. The metal had climbed 16% in FY 2007. The metal also has gained for seven straight years.

Generally, a stronger dollar pressures demand for dollar-denominated commodities, such as crude oil and gold, which become more expensive for holders of other currencies. On the other hand, a lower dollar pushes up precious metal prices as their demand lessens as it becomes cheaper for traders holding other currencies.

At the currency markets on Tuesday, the greenback gained against most other major rivals, with the dollar index up at 73.266 against previous day's 72.694. Stocks rallied at Wall Street today after crude prices dropped by almost $3 and also as consumer confidence rose. The Conference Board reported Tuesday that U.S. consumer confidence ticked up in July, while the level remained relatively low and job concerns persisted. The July consumer confidence index rose to 51.9 from a June reading that was revised to 51 from a prior estimate of 50.4.

At the crude market on Tuesday, crude oil fell to the lowest in 12 weeks as the U.S. dollar strengthened to a one-month high against the euro and on signs gasoline demand may extend declines. Crude oil for September delivery fell $2.54 (2%) to $122.19 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It fell as low as $120.42 today.

The weakening dollar and higher global demand for raw materials have led to records this year for commodities including gold. 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. Gold and oil has climbed 34% and 60% since the past one year.

During last week of June, Federal Reserve yesterday sharpened its focus on inflation, saying that the upside risks to inflation have increased. Fed held its target for short-term interest rates steady at 2%. Since last September, Fed has axed interest rates seven times and brought it down to 2%. On the other hand, after keeping interest rates unchanged at 4% since June, 2007, ECB hiked the same to 4.25% in June, 2008.

Gold had witnessed the greatest annual gain in twenty eight years by gaining $200/ounce (31%) in FY 2007 as lower interest rates had sent the dollar tumbling, and crude-oil prices rose to a record. In 2006, silver had jumped 46% while gold gained 23%.

At the MCX, gold prices for August delivery closed lower by Rs 158 (1.2%) at Rs 12,619 per 10 grams. Prices rose to a high of Rs 12,850 per 10 grams and fell to a low of Rs 12,599 per 10 grams during the day's trading.

At the MCX, silver prices for September delivery closed Rs 219 (0.9%) lower at Rs 24,308/Kg. Prices opened at Rs 24,550/kg and fell to a low of Rs 24,080/Kg during the day's trading.

Today's Pick - IDFC


We recommend a ‘sell’ in Infrastructure Development Finance Company (IDFC) from a short-term perspective. It is evident from the charts of IDFC that the stock has been on an intermediate-term downtrend from its January 2008 peak of Rs 235, forming lower peaks and lower troughs.

In May, the stock declined below the 200 and 50-day moving averages. The downtrend has continued and the stock conclusively breached the key support level Rs 110 recently. On July 29, the stock tumbled almost 9 per cent, reinforcing the downtrend. With this, the daily relative strength index (RSI) has entered the bearish zone from the neutral region and the weekly RSI is featuring in this zone. The moving average convergence and divergence is featuring in the negative territory. The stock is trading well below its 21 and 50-day moving averages.

Considering that the medium-term down trendline is intact, we are bearish on the stock in the short-term. We expect the stock’s decline to continue until it hits our price target of Rs 78 in the forthcoming trading sessions. Traders with short-term perspective can sell the stock while maintaining a stop-loss at Rs 94.

Bounce at start, no stability


Better to be approximately right than precisely wrong – Dr. Reddy, RBI Governor.

We were approximately right on the surprise part but precisely wrong on the positive part. We had mentioned that the RBI Governor has a knack of surprising the markets. He did it again by jacking up repo rate by an unexpected 50 bps and raising the CRR by another 25 bps. We were hoping for a positive surprise, but what we got instead was an extremely hawkish quarterly review. In a meet soon after the policy which we attended, the RBI governor said he would like to reduce excess volatility but that need not mean stability. The markets and pundits were stunned as nobody was prepared for this negative surprise.

The bulls must be cursing their luck, for just when things were beginning to look up after a prolonged period of bearishness comes the big blow from the RBI. The central bank has also scaled back its expectations of economic growth, to 8% from 8.5%. This is still quite good considering the slew of headwinds (local as well as global) that we are grappling with. Whether we actually achieve this or not is a big question. The RBI wants to bring down inflation to 7% before the fiscal end. This is also much higher from its medium-term target of 5%. Given the spiraling cost pressures, the central bank will be fortunate if it meets its annual GDP and inflation targets. A good monsoon and a steep fall in crude oil prices (below $100/bbl) will surely help.

Talking of oil prices, crude futures in New York fell to a three-month low amid strengthening dollar, stable geopolitical situation and slowing fuel demand. What could also help the bulls recover is that US stock indexes ended at or near the day's highs after data showed a better-than-forecast rise in consumer confidence and crude oil fell by nearly $4 per barrel. European markets rose after a weak start while stock benchmarks also rallied in emerging markets like Brazil. Stocks in Russia sank due to lower oil prices. Asian markets have also opened higher, led by Hang Seng which is up by 1.8%.

So, we are looking at a higher opening on local bourses after yesterday's credit policy led sell-off. The rebound may not be very sustainable, as the latest increase in interest rates could worsen the macroeconomic scenario. Rates will go up across the board. India Inc will continue to feel the pinch from rising borrowing costs and slowing consumer demand for the next few quarters. Expectations on corporate earnings growth will have to be scaled down. The market may turn volatile after a good start ahead of tomorrow's F&O expiry.

FIIs were net sellers of Rs5.38bn (provisional) in the cash segment on Tuesday and the local funds offloaded shares worth Rs2.55bn. In the F&O segment, the foreign funds were net sellers of Rs14.57bn. On Monday, FIIs were net sellers of Rs6.09bn in the cash segment. Mutual Funds were net buyers of Rs2.04bn.

Asian stocks rose after better-than- expected earnings from Matsushita Electric and oil prices at a 12-week low eased concern that slowing global growth will hurt earnings. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index gained 1.1% to 131.56 as of 10:57 a.m. in Tokyo. Five stocks rose for each that declined, with nine of the index's 10 industry groups advancing.

The Nikkei in Tokyo was up 1.2% at 13,315 while the Hang Seng in Hong Kong climbed nearly 2% to 22,688. The Kospi in Seoul gained 0.7% to 1578 while the Straits Times in Singapore rose 1.1% to 2917.

Strong financial reports, rising consumer confidence and falling oil prices lifted US stocks on Tuesday. All the major indices advanced steadily throughout the day as consumer confidence got a surprise boost in July.

The US market opened with a gap after Merrill Lynch said it would take a $5.7bn writedown and sell off $11.1bn in mortgage securities in the current quarter. The brokerage also said it plans to raise $8.5bn through fresh share sale.

One will have to see if Wall Street can continue to rally on Wednesday, as investors will get a glimpse at the monthly ADP employment report ahead of Friday's US Labor Department report.

Crude oil prices fell $2.54 to end at $122.19 per barrel, the lowest settlement since May 6. Oil plummeted after OPEC President Chakib Khelil said oil was overpriced and could sink to $78 a barrel. Oil is down $25 a barrel since setting a record high of $147.27 on July 11.

But, some analysts say falling oil prices could also mean that the global economy is weakening.

Financials rallied, as investors hoped banks are positioning themselves to get out of the mess that they got into in the wake of the sub-prime mortgage meltdown and the consequent credit crunch.

Shares of Merrill Lynch rose 8%, but most other banks' stocks advanced by even more. Other investment banks fared well, too, with Goldman Sachs rising 5.1%, Morgan Stanley adding 4.4% and Lehman Brothers posting a 10.5% gain.

Government-backed mortgage finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also rebounded after sharp losses Monday.

Citigroup also managed a 5.9% gain, even after Deutsche Bank analyst Mike Mayo forecasted that the bank will take an added $8bn in writedowns related to its collateralized debt obligations in its third quarter.

The average price of gasoline fell 1.7 cents to $3.941 per gallon in the US, declining for the 12th straight day. It was gasoline's lowest level since May 29.

Treasury prices fell, sending the yield on the benchmark 10-year note up to 4.05% from 4.01% late on Monday.

Germany's DAX 30 rose 0.8%, or 47.65 points, to 6,398.80, while the French CAC 40 ended the day down 0.1%, or 3.96 points, at 4,320.49. The UK's FTSE 100 shook off early losses to end just barely higher at 5,319.20, up 0.1%.

In the emerging markets, the Bovespa in Brazil jumped 2.06% to 58,042 while the IPC index in Mexico was up 2.2% at 27,318. The RTS index in Russia dived 1.7% to 1896 and the ISE National-30 index in Turkey surged 3.3% to 48,537.

It was a terrible Tuesday for the Indian markets as benchmark Sensex plunged over 550 points. Key indices which opened with a negative gap, further lost ground soon after the Reserve Bank of India announced that it had hiked the interest rates for the third time in two months as policymakers try to contain inflation, keeping it as high priority.

The RBI increased the benchmark repurchase rate by 50bps to 9% from 8.5% and also raised the cash reserve ratio by 25bps to 9% from 8.75%.

The banking and the realty stocks were badly beaten up with stocks like Axis Bank, ICICI Bank and realty majors DLF and Unitech slipping the most.

Among the 30-components of Sensex, 26 stocks were in red and only 4 stocks were in green. Reliance Industries, ICICI Bank, L&T and HDFC Bank were among the major laggards. On the other hand, Hindustan Unilever, Sterlite Industries, TCS and Infosys were among the major gainers.
