Sensex recovers in late trade…Metals down; Defensives up

Frontline Indian stock indices managed to claw their back from the intraday lows in late afternoon trade but closed marginally lower, notwithstanding weakness in global markets and concerns about the eurozone debt crisis.

The BSE Sensex and the NSE Nifty closed about a third of a percent down each on a provisional basis. The BSE Sensex ended at 18,632, down 62 points over the previous close. It had earlier touched a day's high of 18,670 and a day's low of 18,573. It opened at 18,644.

Tired after a climb

"When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago" - Friedrich Nietzsche. Investors are taking a breather after the recent rally, which means large-cap stocks may remain rangebound before making a decisive move. The broader market seems to be showing more signs of life though this category warrants extra caution. What we have in store is a lower opening. Stick to a stock-centric approach as the main indices may consolidate. Things may turn wee bit volatile ahead of Thursday’s F&O expiry. Global cues are again weak. Asian markets are mostly in the red. US markets closed at a two-week low following a Fed official's hawkish comments. Earlier, US stocks had gained in the wake of encouraging data on consumer confidence and home prices.

What is CRR, repo and reverse repo rate?

What is CRR? Cash reserve Ratio (CRR) is the amount of funds that the banks have to keep with the RBI. If the central bank decides to increase the CRR, the available amount with the banks comes down. The RBI uses the CRR to drain out excessive money from the system. Commercial banks are required to maintain with the RBI an average cash balance, the amount of which shall not be less than 3% of the total of the Net Demand and Time Liabilities (NDTL), on a fortnightly basis and the RBI is empowered to increase the rate of CRR to such higher rate not exceeding 20% of the NDTL. What is Reverse Repo rate? Reverse Repo rate is the rate at which the RBI borrows money from commercial banks. Banks are always happy to lend money to the RBI since their money are in safe hands with a good interest. An increase in reverse repo rate can prompt banks to park more funds with the RBI to earn higher returns on idle cash. It is also a tool which can be used by the RBI to drain excess money out of the banking system. What is a Repo Rate? The rate at which the RBI lends money to commercial banks is called repo rate. It is an instrument of monetary policy. Whenever banks have any shortage of funds they can borrow from the RBI. A reduction in the repo rate helps banks get money at a cheaper rate and vice versa. The repo rate in India is similar to the discount rate in the US.
