Special Report 24-Sep-2018
Global markets at a glance The S&P 500 and Dow reached record highs on Friday ahead of Monday's major sector reshuffle, capping a week that largely shrugged off trade worries. Trading volume was expected to spike in anticipation of the S&P 500 sector change, when telecom will be folded into a new sector called communications services, along with heavy-hitting stocks such as Amazon.com, Facebook Inc and Walt Disney Co. The S&P 500 and the Dow were up, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq losing ground. All three were on track to post their second consecutive weekly gains, with the blue-chip Dow on its way to its best weekly percentage gain in over two months. "Quadruple witching," when stock options and futures expire, and the S&P 500 and the Russell 2000 rebalance of their indexes, were also seen contributing to heavier trading traffic. Asia shares eased in holiday-thinned trading on Monday and the safe haven yen gained as China canceled upcoming tariff talks with the United States, while oil prices jumped after top producers including Russia ruled out boosting crude output.US stock futures were a touch weaker while MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan dipped 0.3 percent. Previous day Roundup Bears retained a tight grip on Dalal Street for the fourth day in a row on September 21, as the Nifty 50 - after gap up opening - fell sharply in the afternoon and broke crucial support of 11,000, but managed to pull back some losses in the latter part of the session to close off the day's low. The free fall in Yes Bank after RBI's decision to end Rana Kapoor's term as CEO, and impact of the weakness in the rupee and hardening bond yield, started reflecting on NBFCs as sentiments were hit across sectors. The Nifty Midcap index dropped 2.5 percent while Nifty Bank was down 2.6 percent and Realty lost 3.5 percent followed by auto, financial service and pharma.The Nifty 50 started the day on a strong note at 11,271.30 and hit the day's high of 11,346.80 following positive global cues, and due to short covering, but suddenly crashed in the afternoon to break the 11,000-mark and hit an intraday low of 10,866.45, which last seen on July 9, showing a loss of 368 points intraday. Index stats The Market was very volatile in last session.

COMMODITY ROUNDUP Gold stayed broadly supported yesterday as a recent break above $1200 per ounce mark extended for the commodity amid continued weakness in US dollar. However, a record high for US equities capped the upside for the metal. The counter currently trades up 0.20% at $1214 per ounce – holding just below its three week high. MCX Gold eased slightly in last session, ending just above Rs 30600 per 10 grams. The World Gold Council (WGC) would soon submit a blueprint to the government on spot exchanges, its managing director for India operations said at an ASSOCHAM event held in New Delhi. Somasundaram PR, managing director-India, WGC noted at the ASSOCHAM International Gold Summit stated that a WGC led steering committee which has got all trade associations, key international banks and bullion banks, has been working on the spot exchange blueprint for last six-seven months. However, highlighting that demand for gold is likely to remain subdued in the current calendar year, Somasundarm said that while the demand for gold in the first half was seven per cent down compared to last year, the WGC expects it to pick up in the second half. However, it will still be another very subdued year for demand and he expects the demand to be 700-800 tonnes. There is no specific catalyst to drive the demand up, while international gold price has come down by 8-10%, Indian price has gone up by 13-14% and GST (Goods and Services Tax) is also causing a lot of transition, according to him. However, reforms like GST and demonetisation have actually led to gold buying becoming a lot more organised, more so as grey market is also becoming weak, thus it is a good time for gold to become mainstream because of demand remaining subdued. WTI Crude oil futures soared to a two-month high Wednesday after the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) noted in its weekly update that the US crude inventories dropped to a three and half year low. The commodity has broken well above the key $70 per barrel level now and currently trades at $71.22 per barrel -up 0.64% on the day. MCX Crude jumped above Rs 5100 levels and ended up 2% at Rs 5160 per barrel. The EIA noted in its weekly petroleum status report that US commercial crude inventories decreased by 2.1 million barrels last week, maintaining a total US commercial crude inventory of 394.1 million barrels. The commercial crude inventory is down about 3% compared with the five-year average for this time of year.

The latest report of United States Department of Agriculture (USDA ) has raised India's total oilmeal exports in MY 2017/18 to settle at 2.4 MMT, 0.3 MMT above previous estimate. Indian soymeal prices have declined from $486/MT in February 2018 to $433/MT in July 2018, but are still 10 percent higher than soymeal from the United States and Brazil. Stronger demand from South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and France have helped spur Indian soymeal sales. Similarly, Indian rapeseed meal prices have dropped by more than $33/MT to $217/MT, as of July 2018, which is approximately $47/MT lower than other international suppliers. As a result, rapeseed meal sales to South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, Taiwan and other South East Asian countries have improved. The MY 2018/19 oilmeal export forecast remains unchanged at 2.9 MMT, but USDA notes that the future direction of India's exports will depend on price competitiveness of Indian oilmeals in the international markets and local demand from poultry feed manufacturers, which is likely to remain strong. Bearish trend was seen in turmeric market this week as demand has receded at elevated levels. Though, some of the selected markets are still showing some buying. The spot prices in Nizamabad mandi ruled around Rs 6900 per quintal with thin trading activity owing to local holidays.

The rupee is expected to remain under pressure in nearterm as the downside risks to the currency are largely driven by the external factors and will take some time to subside, says a report. According to Dun & Bradsteet's latest economy forecast, elevated crude oil prices, strengthening of dollar, geopolitical tensions and economic sanctions will continue to impart depreciation pressures on the rupee. At this time of global uncertainty along with tightening dollar liquidity in the global market, measures to attract foreign investors to support the rupee might have limited impact, at least, in the short-term. The rupee has logged year-to-date losses of more than 13 per cent against the strengthening US dollar after trade concerns and firming up crude oil prices. It has dropped close to 6 per cent since August. The rupee Wednesday rebounded by 61 paise to close at 72.37 against the US currency. Adding to the bullish mode, the country's trade deficit for August softened to USD 17.4 billion against near five-year high of USD 18.02 billion. The rupee hit a day's high of 71.86, showing a sharp jump of 105 paise from the historic low, in the afternoon trade on positive sentiment. India's benchmark 10-year sovereign yield also eased to 8.13 per cent. The dollar rebounded from early lows and edged higher against most of its rivals on Friday but was still on track for its biggest weekly drop in seven months as stronger equity markets and rising bond yields fuelled a rush to buy riskier assets. With trade war concerns receding in the background and emerging market central banks led by Turkey taking measures to stabilise their currencies, investors pushed the euro to the $1.18 line for the first time in more than three months.The dollar index drifted 0.1 percent .DXY higher to 94.02 as investors consolidated positions before the weekend, but the greenback was set for its biggest weekly drop since February. A sell-off in the dollar that began in the late European session on Thursday gathered steam overnight as investors ramped up bets that the U.S. Federal Reserve will be near the end of its rate-rise cycle after an expected increase next next week.
