Market Mantra: 02/03/2017 (08:30)

Watch 9035-8995 & 9075-9125 Zone In Nifty Fut (March), Which May Open Around 9000 Today

As par early SGX indication, Nifty Fut (March) may open around 9000 (+28 points) following another record high closing of overnight US market after investors cheered Trump’s pledge of $1 tln as infra spending over 10 years in PPP mode and “massive” US tax cut (subject to US congress approval). Although, these rhetoric of Trump is well known, his overall attitude and reconciliatory tone has made the market somewhat relieved that after 1st month of turbulence, Trump is now more or less showing as “President” rather than a hardcore CEO of a corporate. There was distinct lack of political capital with Trump at the beginning and now it seems that he is maturing himself a Political person gradually, which is vital for passage of all his plans through the US congress. Thus, it may be 2018 or beyond that, when we can see Trumponomics in reality as US congress will eventually has to pass it in any form and thus hopes of future stimulus (fiscal spending) and “huge” tax cuts may bring the much awaited growth & reasonable inflation in the US economy and market is rejoicing that. As usual, after the initial euphoria for Trump’s speech is over, market may also find that at 2400 level, SPX-500 is quite expensive and in that scenario, lack of any specific plans coupled with a hawkish Fed may prompt for some long unwinding. We may see, SPX-500 to top out from these 2400-2415 level to again 2360-2300 zone in the near term as there will be no real triggers for US market in the coming days. Any tax cut proposal may come only after Aug’17 or till the Obamacare issue id resolved. Due to budgetary constraints, Trump may not be also in a position to unveil his actual spending plan before 2018.

Back to home, after the better than expected GDP rally yesterday, analysts are still scrambling to find out the actual reasons behind significant divergence between their projections (6.4%) & actual figure (7%) published by the Govt/CSO. One of the reasons may be favourable base effect.

Although, yesterday’s Mfg PMI headline number (50.7) looks good, the overall employment portion & confidence level of the business owners are still tepid due to adverse effect of DeMo. Market will also keenly watch the service PMI in the coming days.

Overall auto sales figure so far released may be mixed; but 2W sales still very shaky and registering negative growth, which may be an indication that even after reasonable ReMo, rural economy & consumer sentiment may be still tepid.

Hints for actionable trading idea:

Technically, Nifty Fut (March @9000) has to sustain over 9035 area for further rally towards 9075*- 9125 & 9195-9260 in the short term (under bullish case scenario).

On the other side, sustaining below 9015-8995 zone, NF may fall towards 8940/8910-8875* & 8840-8790 area in the near term (under bear case scenario).

Similarly, BNF (LTP: 20838) has to sustain over 20950 area for further rally towards 21050-21150* & 21350-21500 area in the near term (under bullish case scenario).

On the other side, sustaining below 20900 area, BNF may fall towards 20600-20500* & 20350-20000 zone in the near term (under bear case scenario).
