Nifty May Open Above 8800 Amid Positive Global Cues Supported By Trump’s Deregulation Step For Wall Street On Friday Despite Mixed NFP Jobs Data; Expect More Fireworks By NF, If It Sustained Over 8855 Today



Market Mantra: 06/02/2017 (08:30)

Watch 8775-8690 & 8800-8855 Zone In Nifty Fut (Jan), Which May Open Around 8805 Today

Indian market sentiment is being supported by “no negative budget”, mixed or some upbeat Q3FY17 earnings so far despite demonetization blues, some steps for the banks (incremental tax benefit for provisions, AT1 bond deregulation by RBI) & hopes for rate cuts by RBI ON 8th Feb by at least 0.25%. But market may also turned cautious ahead of RBI, deluge of earnings this week, UP elections outcome and “Trump Tantrum”.

As par early SGX indication, Nifty Fut (Feb) may open around 8805 (+47 points) following positive global cues. On Friday, although headline US NFP flashed much above market estimates at 227k (consensus: 175k; prior: 157k), average hourly earnings for Jan grew only by 0.1% against estimate of 0.3% (MOM) and unemployment rate came as 4.8% against estimate of 4.7%. Overall US NFP & others data (service PMI & ISM Non-Mfg PMI) was mixed / tepid and was negative for USD/US bond yields. But, one of Trump’s deregulation step (Dood Frank & retirement advisor rule abolition) has boosted the sentiment of the Wall Street, specially financials & banks. As a result, domestic market today may open in gap up today.

But, going by various other “executive orders” & comments from Trump, specially the immigration fiasco, it seems that US may soon be going into a state of constitutional crisis (conflict with judiciary). Also, some of the Pro-Russian (Putin) comments by Trump, may eventually stamp him as a “Russian Agent” (!!). In any way, global market is likely to be on its toes because of “Trumpomania” in the coming days.

Back to home, although FY-18 budget has no negatives and may be the “best” under the prevalent circumstances of demonetization disruptions, as par some analysts, more could be done by the Govt. In any way, most likely this budget may not help India for a rating upgrade in the near future, for which the Govt is now seems desperate (for incremental flow of FDI & private capex).

Hints for actionable trading ideas:

Technically, NF has to sustain over 8825-8855* zone for further rally towards 8895*-8950 & 8995*-9075 area for the day (under bullish case scenario).

On the other side, sustaining below 8800-8775* area, NF may fall towards 8725-8690/8660* & 8625-8545* zone for the day (under bear case scenario).

Similarly, BNF (LTP: 20260) has to sustain over 20350 zone for further rally towards 20500-20650* area for the day (under bullish case scenario).

On the flip side, sustaining below 20300 area, BNF may fall towards 20000*-19850 & 19500*-19400 zone for the day (under bear case scenario).
