SNAPSHOT

Indian equity markets, which failed to extend the winning momentum last week, resumed the northward journey by settling with close to a percent gains in the week ended July 22. The enthralling week saw the frontline indices being buttressed not only by encouraging reports from the domestic front but also by easing concerns over global financial stability. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensex gained 160.38 points or 0.86% to 18722.30 during the week ended July 22, 2011. The BSE Mid-cap index was up by 39.37 points or 0.56% to 7046.12 and the Small-cap index was up by 100.27 points or 1.20% to 8463.49. The S&P CNX Nifty gained 52.85 points or 0.95% to 5633.95. On the National Stock Exchange(NSE), Bank Nifty increased by 57.40 points or 0.51% to 11291.95, CNX IT surged 92.45 points or 1.46% to 6438.50 while CNX mid-cap lost 21.30 points or 0.26% to 8153.90 and CNX Nifty Junior slipped 111.70 points or 0.98% to 11278.45. India's food inflation has once again resumed its declining trajectory as the Food Articles group rose 7.58% in the week ended July 9 compared to 8.31% in the previous week. The Empowered Group of Minister (EGoM) on food headed by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee removed the four year ban from export export of wheat.

Meanwhile, Indian agriculture production registered a record increase of around 11% during the 2010-11 agriculture season while ministry of finance approved 31 foreign direct investment (FDI) proposals worth Rs 3844.70 core. The domestic indices were largely influenced by the encouraging developments from the Euro-zone where European Union leaders carved out a second bailout package worth 109 billion euros ($157 billion) for debt-stricken Greece in a desperate effort to contain the 18 month long debt crisis in Europe, which is threatening to spread to much larger economies.

Indian benchmark indices failed to extend the winning run for the fourth straight week and halted the weekly uptrend with around one and half a percent losses. The eventful week saw the frontline indices being tormented not only because of domestic reasons but also by worsening global financial situation. The markets got off to a subdued opening for the week as last Friday's pessimism got spilled into Monday's session. What unfolded in the next couple of days was a nasty cut of over one and half a percent followed by a recuperation of around a percentage points. The bourses were destined for similar fortune in the next two days as well but the magnitude of gains and losses was moderate. Then came the extremely disappointing IIP numbers for the month of May which unexpectedly slowed to 5.6% from a year earlier, confirming the signs that the economy is losing steam after a string of interest rate hikes by RBI. Meanwhile, monthly WPI inflation numbers released by the government gave some respite to the markets as it increased to 9.44% in June against 9.06% in the previous month, whereas economists had forecast a gloomier picture and a sharper rise to 9.7% because of the recent hike in prices of petroleum products by the government.

However, the relief proved temporary as weak monsoon data took its toll on sentiments. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensex lost 296.12 points or 1.57% to 18561.92 during the week ended July 15, 2011. The BSE Mid- cap index gained marginally by 10.44 points or 0.15% to 7006.75 and the Small-cap index lost 11.92 points or 0.14% to 8363.22. The S&P CNX Nifty declined by 79.55 points or 1.41% to 5581.10. On the National Stock Exchange (NSE), Bank Nifty lost 50.60 points or 0.45% to 11234.55, CNX IT slipped 377.80 points or 5.62% to 6346.05 while CNX mid- cap increased by 59.30 points or 0.73% to 8175.20 and CNX Nifty Junior gained 33.40 points or 0.29% to 11390.15.

Boisterous Indian benchmarks witnessed an awe-inspiring week of trade as they carried forward their exhilaration from the previous week and vivaciously rallied over 1,250 (Sensex) and 350 (Nifty) points from last Thursday to this Thursday. However, the frontline indices receded on Friday, halting a six-day advance, as some investors judged the recent rally as excessive and resorted to profit booking on speculations that fundamentally things have not changed much and also on expectations that Reserve Bank of India would continue its tightening measures until there are clear signs of inflation easing. Nevertheless, the frontline indices accumulated around three percent points for the week, the largest weekly gain since late March as optimistic global cues coupled with encouraging local developments fortified investors' mood. Foreign institutional investors showed renewed vigor in Indian equities following the government's decision to hike prices of petroleum products while the reduction in customs and excise duty came as an incremental positive surprise for them. The net FII inflow in the equity stood at over Rs 4,600 crore till Thursday.

The core infrastructure industries registered a slowdown in the pace of growth in the month of May, coming down at 5.3% compared to 7.4% registered in May 2010, mainly due to increased interest rates and confusion on policies. The RBI has raised interest rates 10 times since March 2010 to tame inflationary pressures and has made its intention clear to sacrifice some growth to calm inflation. The food inflation numbers showed signs of cooling in the week ended June 18, According to the data released by Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the index for Food Articles group rose to 7.78% for the week-ended June 18, from 9.13% for the previous week.

Weekly Market Outlook 25th June 2011

SNAPSHOT
Indian stocks markets finally succeeded in salvaging a close in the positive territory, snapping the two week downtrend, as the enthralling close to 700 points rally in the last two trading session of the week for the Sensex helped it to overturn the massive losses incurred on the initial day of the week. The benchmark indices went on to re-capture the important psychological 5,450 and 18,200 levels and end the week with close to two percent gains amid encouraging global cues including a resolution over Greece debt trouble after it gained EU and IMF's approval of its latest five-year austerity plan and also after a decision by International Energy Agency to increase oil supplies. However, what followed in the last two sessions was healthy short covering rally as it seemed like investors keenly awaited for a catalyst to buy in India since they were of the belief that domestic markets have bottomed out and a lot of headwinds have been factored in. The BSE Sensex surged by 370.15 points or 2.07% to 18240.68 during the week ended June 24, 2011. The S&P CNX Nifty heaved by 104.85 points or 1.95% to 5471.25.

Food inflation numbers have ricocheted a week after showing some signs of moderation. According to the data released by Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the index for Food Articles group rose to 9.13 percent for the week-ended June 11, from 8.96 percent for the previous week. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) stood at 107 points in May 2011, higher by 7% as compared to the base of 100 in 2010 and marginally up by 0.1% from the month of April. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were net sellers in the equity segment in the week with gross purchases of Rs 10400.60 crore and gross sales of 11526.70 crore, leading to a net outflow of Rs 1126.10 crore.

Indian equity indices extended the downtrend for the second consecutive week as investors at large continued to avoid long positions amid an increasingly vulnerable global as well as domestic setup. The hefty position squaring in last three session of the week proved very costly for the benchmark indices as it plunged over two percent on week on week basis. Foreign institutional investors (FII) restlessly attempted to plough back their hot money from the domestic markets because of confluence of worrying economic trends like accelerating inflation, declining foreign investment and slower growth and domestic investment, that policy inertia is only making worse. The BSE Sensex lost 398.01 points or 2.18% to 17870.53 during the week ended June 17, 2011. The BSE Mid-cap index plunged by 83.49 points or 1.21% to 6814.79 and the Small-cap index declined by 113.97 points or 1.38% to 8174.49.The S&P CNX Nifty slipped by 119.40 points or 2.18% to 5366.40. On the

NSE, Bank Nifty lost 116.00 points or 1.08% to 10598.25, CNX IT sank 296.35 points or 4.45% to 6357.10 while CNX mid-cap declined 70.90 points or
0.89% to 7921.15 and CNX Nifty Junior dropped 227.20 points or 2.01% to 11051.25.

The annual rate of inflation, based on monthly WPI, came much higher than the expectation at 9.06% (Provisional) for the month of May, 2011 (over May, 2010) as compared to 8.66% (Provisional) for the previous month and 10.48% during the corresponding month of the previous year. RBI furthered its aggressive stance against the rampant inflation and hiked repo rate and reverse repo rate by 25 basis points each to 7.50% and 6.50% respectively, in its mid-quarter policy review, which was in line with broader market expectations.

Despite concluding three out of the five trading session of the week in the negative zone, Indian benchmarks still negotiated a close in the green territory with gains of well over half a percent on the week on week basis. In their journey, the key indices also went on to break the two week downtrend but failed to hold on to the psychological 5,600 and 18,650 levels. Investors went through a hectic week as an assortment of reports popped through the period keeping investors in a dilemma and frontline indices in a sticky situation. Bullishness seemed to be returning to the markets which were evident from the fact that the frontline indices showed some resilience and did not capitulate despite an assortment of disappointing economic reports. To start with it was the GDP data released on Tuesday which showed that nation's economy grew by 7.8% in the fourth quarter ending March this year, mainly due to poor performance of the manufacturing sector. On Wednesday, the HSBC PMI figures based on a survey of around 500 companies were released which showed manufacturing activity in India in May slowed from a month earlier, yet output remained robust, reflecting the underlying strength in business conditions.

Furthermore an official data released by the Ministry of Commerce showed that India's six core industries grew by 5.2% in April 2011 as compared to 7.4% in the previous month and 7.5% in the same month of last year. Another data released by the commerce ministry showed that India's trade deficit in April narrowed to $8.98 billion from $11.03 billion in the same period a year earlier, however, the trade deficit rose (month on month) to $8.98 billion in April from $5.6 billion in March.

Indian benchmarks have gone through every possible circumstance in the passing week, to start with it was consolidation which prolonged for three back to back sessions, thereafter followed a day of turmoil for the frontline indices only to sign off the week with an enthusiastic short covering rally. Markets seem to have formed a firm base around the psychological 5,550 and 18,500 levels and are showing little signs of budging from those levels despite the amount of volatility seen in the markets. Investors at large remained hesitant to build on positions ahead of a slew of announcements like IIP data, weekly inflation figures, export data and the outcome of assembly polls. The initial three sessions remained characterized by volatility as traders utilized every small rise to trim down their positions and book profits. Nevertheless, despite the late correction, the frontline indices managed to accumulate around a percent gains in the session as domestic investors cheered the ruling UPA's win against the Left Parties in West Bengal, Kerala and Assam which may strengthen the image of the beleaguered government.

WEEK GONE BY

The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensex remained flat gaining 12.47 points or 0.07% to 18,531.28 for the week ended May 13, 2011. The BSE Mid-cap index shed 19.62 points or 0.29% to 6844.16 and the Small-cap index declined 7.15 points or 0.09% to 8,335.43. On the sectoral front, Capital goods lost 81.26 points or 0.64% to 12688.62, Bankex shed 80.59 points or 0.64% to 12590.17, Oil Gas declined by 46.36 points or 0.47% to 9768.78, IT lost 17.17 points or 0.28% to 6039.60 and Consumer Durables trimming 4.46 points or 0.07% to 3210.24, were the top losers on the BSE while FMCG up by 160.72 points or 4.41% to 3803.26, Realty advancing 82.58 points to 3.94% , Health Care (HC) surging 85.20 points or 1.40% to 6149.40, TECk climbing 18.21 points or 0.50% to 3629.23 and Metal rising 41.02 points or 0.27% to 15404.23 were the main gainers on the sectoral space. The S&P CNX Nifty lost 6.70 points or 0.12% to 5544.75. On the NSE, Bank Nifty lost 1.11% to 11020.95, CNX IT tumbled 0.26% to 6609.55 while CNX mid- cap gained 0.87% to 8034.90 and CNX Nifty Junior surged by 1.74% to 11,185.40. India's food inflation numbers have managed to extend the downtrend for second straight week and have moderated sharply to 7.70% for the week ended April 30 from 8.53% seen in the previous week. India's industrial growth-IIP has surprisingly jumped to 7.3% in March from 3.6% in February; however the Industrial production had grown 15.5% a year ago.

WEEK AHEAD

With the prices of crude oil and FII movements being the constant decisive factors for the markets, the investors in the coming week would be watching the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) data for the month of April for cues. As per the street expectation that India's wholesale price index likely rose 8.43 percent in April from a year earlier, slower than March's 8.98 percent increase due to base effect. Moreover, the postponed meeting of Empowered Group of Ministers (EGoM) for a decision on increasing the prices of diesel and domestic LPG will be taken only by May 17 or 18. Earlier EGoM was to meet on May 11, 2011 to consider hiking the diesel price by Rs 3-4 a litre and domestic LPG rates by Rs 20-25 a cylinder. Moreover trend line drawn adjoining two significant bottoms 5177 and 5232 , next level of support could be around 5430 level where possibility of bounce back couldn't be rule out. Hence clients are advised to remain cautious and use 'Buy on Dip' strategy on any substantial correction. On the flip side 5760-5770 (200 DMA) could be the key resistance zone where we might see some selling pressures. Any closing above this level with substantial volumes may boost the traders sentiment however 5945-5960 could be the next resistance zone. HAPPY TRADING......

Volume & Volatility Index(Nifty- April 2011)

WEEK GONE BY

After minutely escaping from dipping into the red terrain in the previous week, the frontline indices slipped into the negative territory this time around, though marginally, as the triple 'I's viz. IIP numbers which merely grew at a pace of 3.6%, Inflation stood at 8.98% in March against 8.31% in Feb 2011 and Interest Rates, continued to haunt the domestic benchmarks for quite some time now, quadrupled with Infosys being the latest addition to the list. The psychological 5,800 and 19,400 levels proved to be a strong supports for the BSE' Sensex and the NSE Nifty as they consolidated around these levels for yet another week and looked in no mood to give away the substantial gains accumulated two weeks ago. The over 3% laceration in international crude oil prices which were trading around two and half year high levels, on the back of apprehensions of sluggish demand and slow economic recovery, too eased investor concerns. However the bourses, after another one-day break, took a nasty blow of around one and half a percent on the back of dreadful local leads. The flavor of a hectic earning season turned bitter right from the very start and the frontline indices took a blow after IT bellwether Infosys reported below expectation quarterly earnings and gave even lower than expected EPS guidance for FY12.

WEEK AHEAD

After having an imperative numbers of economic data last week the next big aspect that will be driving the Indian equity markets will be other corporate quarterly reports as earnings season shifts into high gear in the coming week. Companies like HDFC Bank, IFCI, IndusInd Bank, Magma Fincorp and Persistent Systems will be reporting their numbers in the week. Since there will be no major economic data up for release in the coming week the investor's will continue to watch the crude oil prices and Foreign fund inflows for cues since these two factors have been dictating the market's movements from quite some time now. Meanwhile, the Government of India in the coming week will take up 46 foreign investment (FDI) proposals. From the global markets investors will be eying lots of major economic data from the US, starting with Housing Starts data on April 19, followed by Existing Home Sales, Jobless Claims and finally the Philadelphia Fed Survey data on Thursday, April 21, 2011. For the coming week 5720 followed by 5605 are likely to be good support levels for the Nifty, while the index may face some resistance at 5950 and 6070 levels.HAPPY TRADING….
