Stock Market Today: Rate hike worries subside among investors (MINT_PRINT)

Global stocks had a mixed day with Tokyo and Hong Kong shedding but Mainland China gaining. Europe was trading flat in the morning session. With US markets shut for holidays, domestic issues moved the markets.

25 Nov 2022, 03:40:33 PM IST

Indices remain flat with Sensex and Nifty closing with marginal gains of 20 and 14 points, respectively.

Indian investors chose to apply caution on Friday with indices ending the day flat after scaling new highs on Thursday. With US markets shut for holidays, investors did not have global cues to anchor their sentiments.

Sensex ended with a minor gain of 20 points at 62,293, while Nifty closed just below 18,500, at 18,497, a gain of 14 points.

PSU Bank started the day great but ended flat. FMCG and Bank indices dragged. Media, Auto and Realty indices gained the most in today's session.

Among stocks, Tata Motors, HDFC Life, Hero MotoCorps and Coal India topped the charts. ICICI Bank lagged the most followed by Nestle India and Kotak Bank.

Global stock markets had a mixed day with many indices showing optimism with regard to future rate hikes but a lack of solid global cues kept investors on their toes.

Japan's Nikkei ended lower on Friday, after hitting a more than two-month high in the last session, as investors sold heavyweight chip-related and growth stocks that had gained. The Nikkei fell 0.35% and gained 1.37% for the week.

China stocks rose on Friday, boosted by property developers after the country's latest measures to support the beleaguered sector. Hong Kong shares tumbled as China reported record-high new daily COVID-19 cases.

The blue-chip CSI 300 Index rose 0.5% at close, while the Shanghai Composite Index added 0.4%. However, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index finished down 0.5%, while the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index declined 0.4%.

European stock markets steadied at the start of trading Friday following a mixed showing in Asia. London's benchmark FTSE 100 index edged up markedly. In the eurozone, Frankfurt's DAX index Paris CAC 40 remained flat.

India Rate Setters Blame Global Factors in Inflation Letter

India’s interest-rate setters have mainly blamed global factors for failing to meet their inflation target, according to people with knowledge of a letter the monetary policy panel was obliged to write to the government.

The war in Ukraine and resultant spurts in energy and food costs, and supply disruptions caused by the pandemic are among main reasons cited, the people said, asking to stay unidentified as the correspondence is private. The detailed narrative doesn’t dwell much on the path forward, only stating that the worst of inflationary pressures are probably behind us, the people added.

Little is known about the contents of the letter sent earlier this month, after India’s consumer inflation topped the upper range of the 2%-6% band for three straight quarters. While the panel led by Reserve Bank of India Governor Shaktikanta Das was mandated by law to explain its failure in capping prices, the government isn’t required to make the information public.

Ashika Stock Broking on today's market: Wiser to hunt for lower level at 18380-18400 for initiating long positions

Tirthankar Das, technical & derivative analyst, retail, Ashika Stock Broking: On the technical front, Nifty formed a long bull candle on the daily time frame and with the presence on higher high-low formation, a bullish overtone in the market is likely to remain. It is at that phase where a prolonged consolidation might be in the making and forming a higher base, setting itself equipped to eye the sought-after level of 18900 in the near term. After yesterday's rally it can be established that the market has halted its slide taking support from its 20dma and the lower area of the gap-up region and 18050-18100 might be the elevated bottom for the market followed by 17950 which coincides with 23.6% retracement of the entire rally since Oct’22. However, the psychological level of 18000 would be the trend-deciding level for the market. A positive stance in the market would remain due to sharp reversals in the Dollar index, US yields have helped to taper down anxiety around further aggressive rate hike and drop in crude oil prices which is supportive for Indian Equities. Against that backdrop, the Index has also cooled off from its overbought price reading presently trading above the 60-level mark (14-period RSI). During the day, Nifty is likely to open on a flat to slightly positive note and from that perspective, it would be wiser to hunt for a lower level at 18380-18400 for initiating long positions for an upside target of 18900 followed by 19200.

Binance’s Crypto Rescue Plan Fails to Quell All the Fears of Post-FTX Contagion

Crypto mogul Changpeng “CZ" Zhao’s vow to set up a recovery fund of up to $2 billion to help cash-strapped startups failed to dispel all the sector’s contagion fears following the collapse of the FTX exchange.

In an interview Thursday with Bloomberg Television’s Haslinda Amin, Zhao gave more details on the deals his Binance Holdings Ltd. is examining in the wake of rival FTX’s bankruptcy. Key to Zhao’s plan is a fund with co-investors aimed at backing promising crypto projects facing a liquidity squeeze.

“We’re going with a loose approach where different industry players will contribute as they wish," he said, flagging a possible $1 billion for the fund. A later blog post explained the commitment could rise to $2 billion if needed. (Bloomberg)

China’s Daily Covid Tally Tops 30,000 for First Time as Curbs Spread

China’s daily Covid infections broke through 30,000 for the first time ever as officials struggle to contain outbreaks that have triggered a growing number of restrictions across the country’s most important cities.

There were 31,987 new infections reported for Thursday, up from Wednesday’s record of 29,754. The southern city of Guangzhou reported more than 7,500, while cases in the metropolis of Chongqing topped 6,000. The capital, Beijing, saw daily infections exceed 1,800 with the record tally and lockdown-like restrictions sparking panic buying in parts of the capital.

The persistently high caseloads have weighed on equity markets. Key Chinese stock gauges in Hong Kong and on the mainland headed for a weekly decline, set to snap a three-week rally. (Bloomberg)

INDIA BONDS- Bond yields seen steady ahead of weekly debt sale

Indian government bond yields are expected to open steady on Friday as traders exercise caution and avoid taking large positions ahead of the weekly debt auction.

India's benchmark 10-year bond yield is likely to trade in a 7.25%-7.29% band after having ended one basis point (bps) lower at 7.2548% on Thursday.

U.S. markets were closed on Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday and there hasn't been much overnight movement in oil prices, so the domestic markets will mostly look forward to government bond auctions for further cues, said a trader at a primary dealership.

New Delhi aims to raise 280 billion rupees ($3.43 billion) through the sale of bonds, including the benchmark 10-year paper, later in the day. (Reuters)

Japan's Nikkei slips from 2-month high on selloff in chip stocks

Japan's Nikkei edged lower on Friday, as investors sold heavyweight chip-related stocks after the share average hit a more-than-two-month high in the last session, although hopes for slower interest rate hikes globally capped declines.

The Nikkei lost 0.34% to 28,286.94 by the midday break but it was set to rise 1.39% for the week. The broader Topix fell 0.13% to 2,016.23 and on course to post a 2.49% weekly gain.

"Investors sold shares for profit-taking today. That was seen in chip-related stocks, which were strong in the past few sessions," said Shuji Hosoi, senior strategist at Daiwa Securities.

"Overall the market was supported by hopes for slower hikes of the ECB, which sent Germany's 10-year bond yields lower." (PTI)

Geojit Financial Services views on today's market: Market is unlikely to surge from the record highs since the valuation headwind will act as a restraint

Dr V K Vijayakumar, chief investment strategist at Geojit Financial Services: "Many favourable factors have come together to push the markets to record levels: the FOMC minutes indicating smaller rate increases, the sharp correction in crude, FIIs turning buyers, reports of impressive credit growth and capex revival and even the bad news of record Covid spread in China is turning out to be good news for India since it will accelerate the China Plus One policy. Nifty breaking the previous record high of 18,604 is only a question of time. The significant feature of this rally is that it is driven by heavyweights like HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, HDFC, Infy, TCS, HCL Tech and RIL which have strong fundamentals and this makes the rally healthy. But the market is unlikely to surge from the record highs since the valuation headwind will act as a restraint.

Vast majority of retail investors, particularly the newbies, have missed out on this rally since their portfolios are largely mid-and small-cap oriented. As of now, the possibility of the rally spreading to the broader market is limited."

Rupee likely to remain under pressure in 2023, say economists

The rupee is likely to remain under pressure next year and could even touch 85 against the US dollar, according to economists.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February and the resultant spike in crude prices and supply chain disruptions, the rupee has been under tremendous pressure. The domestic currency had touched an all-time low of 83 against the dollar on October 19.

On Thursday, rupee gained 23 paise to close at 81.70 against the dollar.

During a panel discussion at the SBI Banking & Economic Conclave here on Thursday, various economists said the rupee will continue to be under pressure given the widening current account deficit which is seen close to 4 per cent of the GDP this fiscal.

There is also pressure on forex earning as exports began to fall since last month, they said and expect the rupee to trade between a high of 82 and a low of 85 to the dollar in 2023. (PTI)
