Indian indices:
Welcome to the ‘Weekly Market Wrap’ for June 20, 2014 where key benchmark indices declined last week as crude oil prices rose and as the rupee fell against the dollar, which stoked concerns of fuel price inflation and increase in India's current account deficit and fiscal deficit. The latest data showing increase in inflation based on the wholesale price index in May 2014 also weighed on sentiment. Selling was focused on large-caps, as mid and small-cap indices on BSE ended the week on a positive note.
The S&P BSE Sensex fell 122.66 points or 0.49% to 25,105.51. The 50-unit CNX Nifty fell 30.65 points or 0.41% to 7,511.45.
The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index rose 26.03 points or 0.29% to 8961.96 and the S&P BSE Small-Cap index rose 86.64 points or 0.90% to 9,761.22. Both these indices outperformed the Sensex.
Major events of the week:
The wholesale price index (WPI)-based inflation rose a five-month high of 6.01% in May against 5.2% in the previous month, driven by costlier protein-based items, fuel and some manufactured products. The data, released officially today, presents a complex picture before the government and the Reserve Bank of India as its consumer price index-counterpart had eased to a three-month low.

Market outlook for the coming week!
In the coming week, movement in crude oil prices, the progress and the spread of the monsoon rains, trend in global equity markets and investment activity of foreign institutional investors will dictate near term trend of domestic stocks.
The market may remain volatile next week as traders roll over positions in the futures & options (F&O) segment from the near month June 2014 series to July 2014 series. The near-month June 2014 F&O contract expire on Thursday, 26 June 2014.
Increase in oil prices has triggered macroeconomic worries for India which imports majority of its crude oil requirements. Increase in crude oil prices has raised concerns of increase in fuel price inflation and increase in India's current account deficit and fiscal deficit.
The progress of the monsoon rains holds key amid concerns that poor rains this year will send food prices higher. As per reports, the monsoon has reached half of the country so far. The all India seasonal rainfall from 1 to 18 June 2014 was 45% below long period average.
Stock/sector specific movement may rule the roost in the near term based on earnings expectations and based on expectations from the upcoming final Union Budget for 2014-15 which is the first Budget of the new government at Centre led by BJP. The Q1 June 2014 corporate earnings will begin in mid-July 2014 and continue until mid-August 2014.
