Q1 June 2011 corporate earnings in focus
Indian stocks will on Monday, 18 July 2011, react to European bank stress tests results. The European Banking Authority will publish the results of its bank stress tests after European equity markets are closed on Friday, 15 July 2011. The European Banking Authority will also provide more information on the specific sovereign exposures of the lenders that have been reviewed.
Closer home, the focus remains on the Q1 June 2011 earnings. Investors will closely watch the post-Q1 June 2011 result management commentary to gauge the future earnings outlook at a time when Indian firms are witnessing cost pressures amid rising interest rates and staff costs. A hike in transportation costs will add to cost pressure of India Inc. As per reports, freight rates have gone up by 8% to 9% on all routes across India following a hike in diesel prices late last month.
Market slides on weak global cues
Key benchmark indices dropped in choppy trade on growing fears about the spreading of the euro-zone debt crisis to large European economies such as Italy and Spain. Impasse over debt ceiling in the US and back-to-back warnings by Moody's and S&P on US debt also weighed on the sentiment. US is the world's biggest economy. Indian stocks, nevertheless, shrugged off three serial bomb blasts in Mumbai on Wednesday (13 July 2011) evening as the blasts were of relatively lower intensity compared to some in the past.
Markets end with marginal losses
After struggling for direction, the Indian markets closed the session with modest losses. The Sensex fell 56 points and the Nifty down 19 points

The Day after...Sensex, Nifty end flat
A day after Mumbai was rocked by triple bomb blasts, the Indian stocks managed to survive a wider sell-off on the bourses, as inflation did not accelerate as much as feared in June, bringing cheers to traders and investors alike. Overall, the trend was a little choppy as the indices witnessed a late selloff after a spirited comeback in the afternoon.
The Indian stocks ended almost unchanged on Thursday as investors also mulled overseas cues, which were not too exciting. A warning by Moody's to the US on its "AAA" debt rating spooked investors slightly.
In moments like these…
Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment. - Oprah Winfrey quotes.
As expected, the Indian market largely emerged unscathed a day after Mumbai was rocked by fresh terrorist strikes. But, the undertone is still jittery over a spate of local and global headwinds. For the moment, we expect a sluggish start at best. Asian markets are mixed and indecisive. US indices ended near day’s low yet again. European equities too declined.
