Where monetary tightening by the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI hiking the repo and reverse repo by 25 basis points each) and deepening crises in Euro zone — Greece’s debt problems and Fitch Ratings downgrading Portugal's sovereign credit outlook— had a sobering effect on the market in the month, there were panoply of positives that the market can rejoice on. And the long list included — the surge in manufacturing and services activity in February, rise in exports for the third month straight in January 2010, record auto sales, strong index of industrial production (IIP) reading for January (16.7% year-on-year growth) combined with encouraging Q4FY 2010 advanced tax payouts by the top Indian corporates, food inflation contained at its four-month low (16.3% year on year) and Standard & Poor’s upgrading India’s outlook from ‘negative’ to ‘stable’.

In the month the Sensex swung 1,355 points while Nifty moved 394 points. Sensex and Nifty touched their two-year high of 17793 and 5329 respectively.

The market also witnessed a strong post-Budget rally driven by sustained buying by foreign funds since the presentation of the Union Budget 2010-2011 on 26 February 2010. Global credit rating agency Standard & Poor's recently revised the outlook on India to stable from negative due to improved government finances.

The stock market gave a thumbs up to the Union Budget 2010-2011 due to its thrust on infrastructure development, government's pledge to reduce fiscal deficit over the next three years, a smaller-than-expected 2% hike in excise duties, and reduction in taxes for individuals which will boost disposable income. The Finance Minister has assumed GDP growth of about 8% and inflation of about 4.5% for 2010-2011.

The forecast for the southwest monsoon for 2010 is the next major trigger for the market. Good rains this year after last year's drought will boost farm output and rural incomes.

Tokyo-based Research Institute for Global Change has predicted normal monsoon rains in India for the current year. Agriculture secretary Prabeer Kumar Basu had also told media in Delhi last week that the monsoon rains for the year will be normal. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issues a monsoon forecast, usually in the second half of April after considering weather observations in different parts of the world and extrapolating statistical data.

A weakening El Nino is a positive sign for the monsoon, Ajit Tyagi, director general at the India Meteorological Department, said on 18 March 2010. The cyclical heating of the Pacific Ocean known as El Nino will continue to fade, US forecasters said this month. The weather event, which occurs every four to seven years, brings more rain to South America and less precipitation to Asia.

The headline inflation was near 10% in February, prompting the RBI to unexpectedly raise its key lending and borrowing rates by 25 basis points each on 19 March 2020. The Reserve Bank has said it is imperative to anchor inflationary expectations and analysts have forecast another rate hike during the policy review on 20 April 2010.

The government will sell 63% of its bond issuance for the new fiscal year in the first half, slightly less than expected, giving a near-term respite to satiated bondholders and helping send yields sharply lower.

The bulk of the government's first-half borrowing, or Rs 2 lakh crore, will be in the 10-year and longer segment.

The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was flat at 1,173.27.

The economic news in US was positive. US consumers gained confidence in March as the gloom over job prospects began to lift, indicating employment will be central to preserving the recent acceleration in spending. The Conference Board's confidence index rose to 52.5, exceeding the median forecast.

Home prices unexpectedly rose in January for an eighth month, another data showed. Home prices in 20 US cities rose 0.3% in January, indicating the housing market is stabilizing as the economy expands. The S&P/Case-Shiller home-price index climbed from the prior month on a seasonally adjusted basis after a similar gain in December.

The ADP Employment report for March 2010, due later in the global day today is likely to be keenly eyed ahead of the all-important US March non-farm payrolls numbers to be released on Friday, 2 April 2010. The ADP report is expected to show the private sector created 40,000 jobs in March as the world's largest economy emerges from recession. The government's non-farms payroll data is expected to show that the US economy added some 200,000-odd jobs in March, the largest gain since the recession.

No Big Bang here!


For the majority, the past is a regret, the future an experiment – Mark Twain.

Looks like we could someday unravel the secret behind the way our planet earth was born following some success of the Large Hadron Collider. Some may have regrets for failing to perform in line with the indices, but, as far as markets are concerned, it’s not the time to experiment. In short, no ‘Big Bang’ movements are in the offing today going by the subdued mood in global markets.

We expect a flat to slightly positive opening. On the whole, the trend will remain lackluster till the first batch of earnings start kicking in. Though the small-cap and mid-cap counters may remain abuzz one should resist the temptation of buying into illiquid, fundamentally weak stocks. Thursday heralds a new fiscal year. Having completed “year-end” commitments, it will be time to do proper due diligence of your portfolio.

A cooling was due for some time now. Once the key indices touched new 52-week highs it was only a matter of time. Interestingly, the market breadth, which had been negative for a few sessions, turned in favour of the bulls.

Indian markets snapped a four-day winning streak on Tuesday after the NSE Nifty slipped 40 points to end below the 5300 mark. Profit booking was seen in IT heavyweights like Infosys, TCS and Wipro as the rupee continued to appreciate hitting its 52-week high of Rs44.88 against the US dollar. The Oil & Gas major Reliance Industries, a pillar in the recent rally, which took the main indices to 52-week highs, also witnessed some offloading towards the end. In addition, banking heavyweights HDFC Bank and SBI were among the other major laggards.

Till Monday, the situation appeared to be quite under control with the NSE Nifty and BSE Sensex closing at 52-week highs. Bulls succumbed to supply pressure as technically stocks looked to be in an overbought zone. What was surprising was that, market breadth for the first time ended in favour of the bulls, out of total 2883 stocks on the BSE, 1,690 advanced against 1,099 declines while 94 stocks remained unchanged.

Finally, the BSE Sensex slipped 121 points to end at 17,590 and NSE Nifty lost 40 points to close at 5,262.

In Asia, the Nikkei in Japan ended higher by 1%, Australia's S&P/ASX also ended higher by 0.4%. Shanghai SE Composite rose 0.2% and Hang Seng index in Hong Kong was up 0.7%.

In Europe, stocks were trading flat. The DAX in Germany was flat, the CAC 40 index in France was up 0.2% and the FTSE in the UK was flat.

Consequently Telcon will be owned 60% by Hitachi and 40% by Tata Motors.

Shares of Hero Honda slipped by 2% to end at Rs1966. The company declared a Silver Jubilee Special Dividend @ 4000% i.e. Rs80/- per equity share of Rs2/- each.

Precious metals shed glaze


Prices slip as dollar firms up

Precious metal prices ended lower on Tuesday, 30 March 2010. Prices slipped as the dollar firmed up today.

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 and also vice versa.

On Tuesday, gold for April delivery ended at $1,105.7 an ounce, lower by $5.8 (0.5%) an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Last week, gold ended marginally lower by 0.2%. In FY 2010, gold touched a high of $1,154 in January.

On Tuesday, May Comex silver futures ended lower by 6 cents (0.3%) at $17.33 an ounce. Last week, silver ended lower by 0.7%.

In the currency market on Tuesday, the dollar index, which measures the strength of the dollar against basket of six other currencies rose by 0.2%. But the British pound continues to outperform the buck. Strength in the British pound comes amid news that Britain's fourth quarter GDP was upwardly revised to reflect a 0.4% increase.

In a report released yesterday, the World Gold Council said that demand for gold from China could double in the next decade due to higher investment demand. As per the report, demand for gold in China reached 423 metric tons, or 466 short tons, last year, but domestic mines contributed only 314 metric tons, or 346 short tons. This shortfall creates a "snowball" effect as China's gold industry has to rely on imports.

Gold had ended FY 2009 higher by 24%. Silver futures had ended 2009 up 50%. The dollar index had lost 4.2% against its counterparts last year.

Last year, after hitting a low at $807.30 per ounce on 15 January 2009, gold futures rallied almost 51% to hit an all-time high at $1217.40 per ounce during early December of 2009 but fell from those levels at the end. Silver futures had hit a low at $10.42 on 15 January 2009 and hit a high at $19.30 per ounce on 2 December 2009. Like gold, silver also ended lower than its all time high level.

At the MCX, gold prices for June delivery closed lower by Rs 16 (0.09%) at Rs 16,379 per ten grams. Prices rose to a high of Rs 16,475 per 10 grams and fell to a low of Rs 16,342 per 10 grams during the day's trading.

At the MCX, silver prices for May delivery closed Rs 21 (0.07%) lower at Rs 26,830/Kg. Prices opened at Rs 26,847/kg and fell to a low of Rs 26,718/Kg during the day's trading.

Crude ends marginally higher


Prices crawl up due to positive consumer confidence data

Crude oil prices ended marginally higher, off their intra day highs, on Tuesday, 30 March 2010. Prices ended higher due to better than expected consumer confidence report.

On Tuesday, crude-oil futures for light sweet crude for May delivery closed at $82.37/barrel (higher by $0.2 or 0.2%). It stayed above the $82 mark for most part of the day. Prices lost 1.2% last week.

Crude prices rose 9.3% in February as supply-and-demand issues began to take hold in a market for months dominated by moves in the dollar. Prices have ranged between $69 and $84 a barrel since October. Crude has risen 72.7% in last one year.

The Conference Board in US reported on Tuesday, 30 March 2010 that U.S consumer confidence rebounded in March after falling sharply in the prior month. As per the report, the consumer confidence index rose to 52.5 in March from 46.4 in February. Confidence had dropped significantly in February from 56.5 in January.

The gain in confidence was above forecasts. Market had expected the index to rebound to 51. The February confidence index was revised up from the initial estimate of 46. The present situation index rose to 26 from 21.7, while the expectations index improved to 70.2 from 62.9.

In the currency market on Tuesday, the dollar index, which measures the strength of the dollar against basket of six other currencies rose by 0.2%. But the British pound continues to outperform the buck. Strength in the British pound comes amid news that Britain's fourth quarter GDP was upwardly revised to reflect a 0.4% increase.

This week's weekly inventory report for crude and crude products is scheduled for Wednesday. The report is expected to show another build up in crude inventories for last week. The EIA reported last Wednesday that crude-oil inventories rose by 7.245 million barrels against an expected buildup of 1.67 million barrels for week ending 19 March. Despite the surprising inventories number, traders had focused more on data declines in stockpiles of gasoline and distillates such as diesel and heating oil. The EIA had also showed a combined decline of 5.14 million barrels in stocks of gasoline and distillates.

Last week, Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries decided to keep its production quota unchanged.

Elsewhere, natural gas for May delivery ended higher by 1.5% at $3.98 per British thermal units.

Oil prices had reached a high of $147 on 11 July, 2008 but have dropped almost 45% since then. Crude prices had ended FY 2008 lower by 54%, the largest yearly loss since trading began at Nymex.
