CNX Weekly Techno-Derivatives Snapshot (13/06/2016 – 17/06/2016):
Following is the Analysis on Several Indices including Nifty, Bank Nifty, Major Sectorial indices, All F&O Stocks, Small Cap & Mid Cap along with VIX & USDINR and Derivatives Outlook in addition to Global Markets outlook including Crude.
Indian Equity markets are witnessing some profit booking around 8300 levels post the sharp rally seen in past few months. Last week, Sensex inched lower by 0.8% mainly led by the sharp fall in Technology sector (-3.2%).
During the past week, the probability of delayed Fed rate hike further gained momentum leading to correction in 10 year U.S. yields & Dollar Index. The dollar index went to new lows in recent period which led to appreciation of major global currencies including Yen. Nikkei was under pressure during the week as Yen appreciation shall adversely impact Japan’s financials, it being a trade surplus economy.
On the domestic front, RBI monetary policy was broadly in line with expectations though the language was slightly hawkish.
Going ahead, the built up to Britain’s exit from the EU remains the key overhang on the markets. On June 23, the referendum will be held.
Much weaker-than-expected previous week’s US May Jobs data on Friday pointed to labor market weakness and raised doubts if the economy was healthy enough to absorb an interest rate hike in the coming months. Hence the June Hike being well off the table is very clear keeping the odds for October hike still very much ON with July Probability being reduced to 21%.
After the dismal Jobs data report, Yellen in her last public appearance ahead of the Crucial June 14-15 meet said that she expects to raise interest rates only gradually and avoided specifying any exact timeframe, clear shift from May 27 stance where she said a move of hiking the Interest Rates was probable "in the coming months."
With the Fed''s June 14-15 meeting scheduled just a week before the British vote on June 23 & A "leave" vote, dubbed widely as Brexit is expected to roil financial markets, Fed may well want to wait out till July/October before raising rates & may want to let the threat of Brexit pass before tightening the Interest Rates.
A British exit from the European Union could be the one of the most disruptive event for financial markets in the near term as UK is the world''s fifth largest economy and has the world''s biggest global financial sector along with New York & a Brexit will trigger a fragmentation of the EU and freeze bond markets.
Bank of Japan (BoJ) will unveil monetary policy statement on June 15, 2016 & will hold a press conference on June 16, 2016, to look into the factors that affected the most recent interest rate decision, the overall economic outlook, Inflation and offers insights into future monetary policy decisions.
Bank of England (BOE) will decide on interest rate on June 16, 2016 where BOE monetary policy committee members will vote on where to set the rate.
China will unveil its Industrial Production data for May 2016 on June 12, 2016.
Also, The World Bank in the past week has slashed the Global growth Outlook for 2016 to 2.4% from 2.9% citing higher probability of a sharp slowdown in global economy & also cut its forecast for growth in 2017 to 2.8% from 3.1%.
Oil Prices have closed at their 8 Month highs largely with falling US Inventories, concerns about potential supply shortage concerns due to threat of terror attack on Nigerian Oil fields leading to a shut-down & slump in the Dollar.
RBI in its Monetary policy have left the Interest Rates unchanged & would like to wait until August & would have a close focus on few factors including, Actual distribution of Rainfall, the pace of Bank’s policy transmission, Inflationary concerns arising out of impact of implementation of 7th Pay Commission recommendations, US Fed stance & Brexit Referendum clarity.
Retaining its accommodative stance, RBI has spelt caution with Inflation spiking up in the past few months following firm Crude Prices & global commodity prices also inching upwards along with a rise in prices of domestic food items.
Also, Since April 2014, RBI has cut the policy rate cumulatively by 150 bps, however he average base rate of banks have fallen by only 70 bps & hence rather than further cuts, focus is on enabling better transmission.
Industrial output (IIP) contracted by 0.8 per cent in April 2016, due to drastic fall in capital goods production and manufacturing activities.
Contraction of 1.6% in January flowed by a 2% growth in February & 0.3% growth in March with the current reading of contraction of 0.8% despite a low base does underline a fact that a gradual recovery is still away.
Disappointing IIP numbers (with volatile trend) combined with the methodological concerns pertaining to the GDP numbers, Continuous decline in export growth in the Last 4 Trade data reading has made the Government’s work cut out.
Hence until an uptick is there in Export Growth, coupled with containment of rising NPA’s & improvement in private investment sentiment, etc.; a quick sustainable turnaround in the economy in the near term may be a few quarters away.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Wednesday, 8 June 2016, announced the arrival of the monsoon rains in Kerala. This marks the beginning of the 4-month June-September southwest monsoon season in the country.
IMD in its Second Monsoon ForeLPA).

News of Onset of Monsoon have already been priced in, now how its more important as to how the actual rainfall distribution pans out.
Going forward,
Movement of the Markets would be dictated by Fed Meet (14-15th June), Bank of Japan Meet (15th June), Bank of England Meet (16th June, India CPI (13th June), WPI (14th June), Trade Data, progress of Monsoon, Global Market trends, Crude Oil Prices, USDINR trend, FII Fund Flows, Global Market Trends & Dollar Index.
