Market rejoices host of good news; Sensex up 4%
Market rejoices host of good news; Sensex up 4%
Investors had enough reasons to turn bullish on Friday and build on the gains of previous session. They not only covered short positions in interest sensitive sectors, but made fresh purchases in select blue chips.
After market hours on Thursday, government data showed India’s inflation for the week ended July 5 had risen to 11.91 per cent, higher from previous week's 11.89 per cent. The figure came as a surprise for the market which was expecting it around 12 per cent. Add to this, a statement from the Department of Economic Affairs that inflation had ‘stabilised’ was morale booster.
Mood in US financial market, which has been under pressure due to credit crisis, turned positive after lender JP Morgan Chase announced better than expected results.
US stocks rallied overnight also as oil prices dropped sharply. The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 1.85 per cent, Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 1.20 per cent, and Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 1.20 per cent.
Steep fall in crude oil prices, a major concern for global economies, further strengthened sentiment. Oil hovered above $130 per barrel on Friday, after correcting more than 10 per cent in just three days from the record high of $147.27 on July 11. Rally in European markets also gave investors a chance to build on. FTSE 100 was higher by 1 per cent, DAX 30 up 1.79 per cent and CAC 40 added 0.79 per cent.
“Oil prices have come down and inflation figures were on expected lines. So far companies have announced good quarterly results. Many market participants have discounted outcome of vote of confidence and feel that the government will be able to scrape through. These all factors led to rally in the market,” said Rahul Sanghvi, institutional sales, Kantilal Chhaganlal Securities.
Bombay Stock Exchange’s Sensex closed at 13635.40, up 523.55 points or 3.99 per cent. It touched a high of 13684.27 and low of 13093.34. National Stock Exchange’s Nifty ended at 4092.25, up 3.67 per cent or 145.05 points. The broader index touched a high of 4,110.55 and low of 3,926.30.
“Selling by FIIs has reduced a bit and local mutual funds have initiated buying in blue chips like Larsen & Toubro, Tata Steel, Reliance Industries and Infosys Technologies. Valuations of most stocks look attractive at current levels,” Sanghvi added. Tier II and III stocks under performed the benchmarks as BSE Midcap Index closed 1.63 per cent high at 5239.39 and BSE Smallcap Index ended 1.08 per cent up 6,455.89.
Biggest Sensex gainers were ICICI Bank (12.46%), HDFC (10.13%), Jaiprakash Associates (8.86%), HDFC Bank (7.54%), Bharti Airtel (7.5%) and DLF (6.51%). Losers comprised Satyam Computer (-7.5%), Wipro (-4.42%), Ranbaxy Laboratories (3.72%), Tata Steel (3.38%) and Infosys Technologies (1.51%). Market breadth on BSE showed 1,608 advances and 985 declines, while on NSE, there were 849 gainers and 349 losers.

Wall Street shot higher on Thursday, extending its rally into a second session as tumbling energy prices bolstered an already upbeat mood that followed stronger-than-expected quarterly reports from big names like JPMorgan Chase and United Technologies. The Dow Jones industrial average rose more than 200 points, bringing their two-day advance to more than 480. Investors got a double dose of good news after weeks of angst about the economy. Light, sweet crude fell $5.31 to settle at $129.29 a barrel; oil has dropped more than $15 in just the past three sessions. And early on Thursday, three components of the Dow industrials, JPMorgan Chase & Co, United Technologies Corp and Coca-Cola Co, issued comments that generally indicated that their businesses are holding up despite sometimes difficult economic conditions. The reports let investors put aside some of their worst fears about the economy. Still, Wall Street has had some up periods in the past few months as optimism grew, only to fall back into a downturn as worries about the financial sector and the economy have welled back up.
"The sentiment has just been so negative that even a whiff of positive news is driving the markets," said Kevin Dorwin, principal at wealth management firm Bingham, Osborn & Scarborough in San Francisco. "Oil the key factor right now because inflation has been on the top of investors' minds and a reduction in the price of oil signals that perhaps inflation will not get out of hand. That's very positive for both the stock and bond markets." Beyond oil, natural gas prices also fell sharply Thursday after the Energy Department said domestic stockpiles rose last week, signaling a drop in demand. While levels remain below those of recent years natural gas fell 86.1 cents to settle at $10.537 per 1,000 cubic feet. A sustained drop in energy costs would be welcome news for nearly all parts of the economy. Consumers have been hard-pressed by higher fuel and food costs. Wall Street is worried they will pare their spending on discretionary items to make room in their budgets for the higher-priced necessities.
A pullback could be troublesome as consumer spending accounts for more than two-thirds of US economic activity. But the declines in energy and profit reports from marquee names left investors in an acquisitive mood again Thursday. The Dow rose 207.38, or 1.85 percent, to 11,446.66. The Dow on Wednesday surged 276 points after oil fell and Wells Fargo & Co. posted better-than-expected earnings. The 4.4 percent advance over two days was the Dow's best two-day percentage gain since October 2002 and the point increase gave the blue chips their best back-to-back point gain since late November last year. Broader stock indicators also rose Thursday. The Standard & Poor's 500 index advanced 14.96, or 1.20 percent, to 1,260.32, and the Nasdaq composite index rose 27.45, or 1.20 percent, to 2,312.30. Advancing issues outpaced decliners by nearly 3 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.96 billion shares compared with 1.73 billion shares traded Wednesday. Bond prices showed steep declines as investors turned away from the safety of government debt. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, jumped to 4.01 percent from 3.94 percent late on Wednesday. The dollar was mixed against other major currencies, while gold prices rose. Continued...Next >>
