Nifty May Open In Positive Tracking Upbeat Global Cues On Hopes Of A “Phenomenal” Tax Reform Plan By Trump & An Upbeat US Earnings; Watch 9340-9275 Area In NF For A Definitive Trend In The Short Term



Market Mantra: 26/04/2017 (08:30)

SGX-NF: 9310 (+15 points)

For the Day:

Key support for NF: 9275-9235

Key resistance for NF: 9340-9385

Key support for BNF: 21975-21825

Key resistance for BNF: 22050-22150

As par early SGX indication, Nifty Fut (Apr) may open around 9210, in slight gap up following positive global cues. Overnight US market also rallied by around 1% on the back of upbeat Q1 earnings & hopes for a “huge” tax cut plan by Trump today.

Although, most of the US corporates are reporting better than expected EPS (earnings) with an average YOY growth of more than 10%, core earnings may not be so much upbeat as cross currency gains (other income) may be helping a great part of their earnings so far.

Also, Trump is expected to just outline his “vision” on his “phenomenal” tax cut/reform plan; the actual tax reform bill may be still far away and is expected to finalize only by Sep’17 or later. Trump is expected to announce the tax plan as par his election rhetoric at around 20% for corporate tax with highest slab at 25% (??) with similar cuts in personal tax too. Thus, market is expecting as a result of Trump’s huge tax cut plan by around 10-15% (?), both US corporates & consumers may have greater cash flow/income in hand, which they will spend to stimulate the economy. But, even its passed in Trump’s way, there may be significant concern for US fiscal deficit funding and with Trump’s another plan for huge infra/fiscal spending, the fiscal math may be more complex.

Eventually, if Trump fails to deliver more details about his Tax plan today, market may be highly disappointed and it may be another case for “buy the rumour & sell the news/fact”. In any way, passage of Trump’s tax plan may happen only in CY-18 and in that scenario effect of it on the US economy & corporate earnings may be still far away.

Indian market may look to result of Axis Bank today for a cue about stressed assets in the old generation private banks (ICICI) after tepid guidance from Wipro yesterday (although Q4 result may be better than expected).

Expected huge win by BJP in the Delhi MCD may also help the market sentiment today as it will prove that regional anti-establishment party’s days are over in India.
