Key support for BNF: 25700-25500

Key resistance for BNF: 26000-26100

Trading Idea (Positional):

Technically, Nifty Fut-Nov (NF) has to sustain over 10410 area for further rally towards 10460- 10500/10535 & 10575-10675 zone in the short term (under bullish case scenario). 

On the flip side, sustaining below 10390-10375 area, NF may fall towards 10290-10250 & 10215/10190 & 10150 -10095 zone in the short term (under bear case scenario).

Technically, Bank Nifty-Fut (BNF) has to sustain over 26000 area for further rally towards 26100-26325 & 26400-26675 zone in the near term (under bullish case scenario).

On the flip side, sustaining below 25950 area, BNF may fall towards 25700-25550 & 25400-25200 area in the near term (under bear case scenario).

Indian market (Nifty Fut/India-50) today closed around 10318, edged up by almost 9 points (+0.09%) after making an opening session low of 10277 and late day high of 10342.

Indian market today opened around 10298, almost flat tracking muted global/Asian cues on China crackdown on its wealth/asset management (WM) products, uncertainty about US corp tax cut, failure of Merkel to forge a “Jamaican Coalition” Govt in Germany even after 2 months of the election coupled with Indian dilemma over Govt’s fiscal spending vs fiscal discipline after Moody’s “Santa gift” to Modi (upgrade).

Both USD & EUR are down which is bad for export heavy Asian markets. Although a lower EUR should be good for export savvy EU market, the reason (German political jitters) for the lower EUR is also not good for the overall German/EU market sentiment today.

But both China & HK as well as EU market (Germany) recovered to some extent towards the closing session of Indian market and that may have also boosted the local market sentiment. Increase in new home sales prices for Oct in various China cities and some rumour that FDP is going to support any minority Merkel Govt from outside has helped the global market sentiment to some extent and Indian market also closed edged up.

Indian Market Continue To Digest The Implications Of Moody’s Upgrade & Waiting For Further Clues Of PSBS Recaps, GDP & RBI Policy In The Days Ahead:

Beside supportive global cues, Indian market sentiment may have also boosted by mega response in Govt’s Bharat—22 ETF, which may collect Rs.14.5 bln for the Govt as disinvestment money, now urgently required to support the PSBS recaps & other fiscal spending.

Govt is also in active discussion to fork out excess surplus (profit) from RBI in the form of special dividends for around Rs.33 bln to support the PSBS recaps & fiscal balance; but so far RBI & its strong employees union has not agreed as they like to keep the money for any future exigencies despite huge pressure from the Govt. 

But, Govt’s ongoing “war on black money” may be also haunting the Indian market sentiment right now; Govt is poised to link all the DEMAT/MF/LI/Other financial products including real estate with the UID and will also launch fresh surgical strike on “Benami properties/financial assets”. Today SEBI begin crack down on penny stocks firms for PMLA angle after PMO led push.

Looking ahead, market will focus on actual Nifty earnings (EPS) in Q2, GDP, RBI policy stance and actual trajectory of borrowing costs of Indian corporates after Moody’s upgrade. Although, today we have seen some positive movements for some large cos like RIL which generally raises funds from foreign market, these cos has already lower borrowing costs due to their own B/S strength. 

Borrowing costs may significantly change for Indian cos, if S&P and Fitch also follow Moody’s upgrade, which seems to be unlikely at this point of time.

Today Nifty was supported by RIL, HDFC Bank, VEDL, Yes Bank, Kotak Bank, Bosch, Gail, Maruti, Bajaj Fin, ITC by around 33 points cumulatively.

Nifty was dragged by ICICI Bank, HDFC, Infy, SBI, IOC, Ambuja Cements, Ultratech Cements, DRL, TECHM & Adani ports by around 31 points altogether.

Overall, today Indian market was helped by automobiles, FMCG, metals, property developers, energies, CPSE/PSU, mixed banks, while dragged by financials, exporters (techs, healthcare-lower USD), PSBS, selected private banks.

Logistics were upbeat as they were given infra status as another dose of incremental reform by the Govt on the weekend; Yes Bank & Indusind Bank surged on inclusion on BSE Sensex index, another global barometer of Indian market beside Nifty. Lupin & Cipla was down for exclusion out of Sensex.

Cement stocks were in pressure due to SC push to ban use of pet coke & furnace oil by the industry (anti-pollution drive after Delhi smog fiasco). Also as par some reports, cement cos has slashed their prices for certain markets, like western India.

Real estate/property developers stocks were in limelight for affordable housing push by the Govt (increase in carpet area) and buzz of GST inclusion. Biocon rallied by almost 7% for favourable EIR from US FDA for its Bangalore plant, which removed a great deal of uncertainty.
