Sensex, Nifty ends flat…GDP disappoints


The Sensex ended at 17,752, up 22 points or 0.12% from the last close. It earlier touched a day's high of 18,001 and day's low of 17,919. The Nifty settled at 5,385, up 10 points or 0.2%.
The market took a breather on Wednesday after surging past the 5450 mark initially. Some profit booking in the Capital Goods, FMCG and Banking space halted the upmove.

Sentiment was hit after the Government data showed lowest GDP growth in ten quarters during the third quarter. Though the lower-than-anticipated GDP data raises expectations of a rate cut by the RBI, the same may not materialise as inflation too remains elevated. In addition, there are reports of an impending fuel price hike next month, which could worsen the situation on inflation. A stubbornly high inflation may prompt the RBI to postpone its planned unwinding of tight monetary policy.

Turnaround at start!


Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. - Michael Jordan.

The Nifty has quickly lost altitude after soaring past 5600 and is now hovering around 5300 levels. Tuesday’s turnaround may be visible at start as the indices could regain some lost ground. The undertone is likely to remain jittery though due to a number of factors.

High crude oil price is one of them. Already there are reports of an impending fuel price hike post state elections. That will, in turn push up inflation, possibly deferring a rate cut by the RBI. Liquidity continues to be tight and could get worse mid-March due to the advance tax outgo.

RIL, bank stocks lead initial gains


Key benchmark indices trimmed gains after a firm opening. The barometer index, BSE Sensex, was up 108.27 points or 0.62%, off about 80 points from the day's high and up close to 25 points from the day's low. The market breadth was strong. All the 13 sectoral indices on BSE were in the green. Mostly higher Asian stocks underpinned sentiment. Index heavyweight Reliance Industries (RIL) edged higher in early trade on reports RIL and BP PLC will submit a joint plan to the government to develop the D6 natural gas block and its satellite fields as an integrated unit. Bank stocks gained on renewed buying.

At 09:30 IST, the BSE Sensex was up 108.27 points or 0.62% to 17,554.02. The index rose 190.99 points at the day's high of 17,636.74 in early trade. The index gained 84.69 points at the day's low of 17,530.44 in early trade.

First weekly fall for markets in 2012


The Indian markets broke seven-week winning trend on profit booking. The Sensex fell 2% and the Nifty declined 2.4%.

Weekly Newsletter - Feb 25 2012


We warned about a meaningful correction on Feb. 22. Incidentally, the main indices witnessed second big fall of 2012 on the day. Not only that, the Indian market broke its seven-week winning streak this week. The frontline indices fell for three straight days and logged their first down week of 2012. Traders preferred to book profits in the run up to important domestic events next month.

The fall this week may not necessarily be a bad thing. A pause is always healthy after such a rise. For those who missed the rally, such corrections could be a blessing in disguise. The Indian market could consolidate in a sideways fashion in the near term as uncertainties over the European debt crisis and geopolitical tensions persist.

One should keep a close eye on FII flows, which have been quite robust so far. Q3 GDP data and LTRO-2 by the ECB will among the events to keep on one’s radar for next week. The Centre must not lose any time in accelerating reforms. That will in turn become fuel for our markets.

India's CPI stood at 7.65% in January


Provisional annual inflation rate based on all India general CPI (combined) for January 2012 on a point-to-point basis (January 2012 over January 2011) is 7.65%. The corresponding inflation rates for Rural and Urban areas are 7.38% and 8.25%, respectively. Inflation as measured by the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) declined to a 26-month low of 6.55% in January. The Central Statistics Office (CSO), Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation releases Consumer Price Indices (CPI) on base 2010=100 for all-India and States/UTs separately for Rural, Urban and Combined every month with effect from January 2011. The General Indices for Rural, Urban and Combined are 115.0, 112.8 and 114.0 respectively. The annual consumer price index (CPI) data released for the first time today measures retail prices in major food groups, fuel, clothing, housing and education across rural and urban India. Provisional annual inflation rates of January 2012 for Rural, Urban and Combined in respect of ‘Food & Beverages’ stood at 4.18%, 3.98% and 4.11%, respectively, said Srikant Kumar Jena, Minister of State (Independent charge), Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation. Vegetables were cheaper by over 24 per cent on a nationwide basis in January over the same month last year. Milk & Milk products turned dearer by 16.53% on an annual basis, while the price of Oils and Fats rose by 13.47%. Condiments and Spices turned costlier by 11.83% and Fruits by 10.62%. The inflation numbers for Fuel & Light, Clothing, Bedding and Footwear segments were in double-digits.

Sensex, Nifty near 1-1/2-week closing lows


Key benchmark indices fell for the third straight day to reach their lowest closing level in almost 1-1/2 weeks. The barometer index, BSE Sensex, fell below the psychological 18,000 level as higher oil prices hit sentiment adversely. The Sensex lost 154.93 points or 0.86%, up close to 75 points from the day's low and off about 275 points from the day's high. The market breadth was weak.

India imports about 80% of its total oil consumption and the rise in prices could worsen a widening trade deficit. Oil advanced for the seventh day in a row today, 24 February 2011, the longest winning streak since January 2010, on signs of economic recovery from the US to Germany and concern escalating tension with Iran threatens crude supplies. Nymex crude oil for April delivery was up 35 cents to $108.18 a barrel.
