Sensex tanks by over 400 points

Sensex tanks by over 400 points


UMBAI: Benchmarks were under intense selling pressure on Wednesday breached 200 Daily Moving Average as sentiments in global markets turned bearish after Germany banned short-selling in some government bonds and stocks.

At 2:28 pm, Bombay Stock Exchange’s Sensex was at 16454.75, down 421.01 points or 2.49 per cent. The index hit intraday low of 16414.65 and high of 16802.39.

National Stock Exchange’s Nifty was at 4940.60, down 125.60 points or 2.48 per cent. The index touched intraday low of 4919.45 and high of 5065.10.

The index has breached its 200 DMA of 4988. This is the second time in the week that the index has tested its crucial support levels. According to analysts, the concern will begin if the index closes below 200 DMA for at least two consecutive sessions which may trigger more short positions.

BSE Midcap Index was down 2.07 per cent and BSE Smallcap Index slipped 1.97 per cent lower.

All the sectoral indices were in the red. BSE Metal Index fell 3.70 per cent, BSE Realty Index tumbled 3.69 per cent and BSE Bankex slipped 3.52 per cent.

Sterlite Industries (-6.76%), Tata Motors (-5.80%), ICICI Bank (-5.62%), Jaiprakash Associates (-5.29%) and M&M (-5.28%) were amongst the major Sensex losers.

Hero Honda (0.86%), was the lone index gainer.

Market breadth was negative on the BSE with 1110 losers against 189 gainers.

Meanwhile, the European shares were in deep red by losses in the financials. FTSE 100 was down 2.62 per cent, CAC 40 fell 3.01 per cent and DAX fell 2.81 per cent.

Bluechips below 200DMA: To buy or not to buy



MUMBAI: Stocks have been under pressure for some time now due to fundamental reasons pertaining to their respective sectors as well as due to economic uncertainties in the global markets.

On Monday, traders heaved a sigh of relief as the Nifty bounced back after briefly slipping below its 200-Daily Moving Average of 4980. Index heavyweights like Reliance Industries and ONGC, which pulled the Nifty down, too have slipped below their 200-DMA.

The 200-DMA is a historical tool and indices or prices don’t breach this level on the downside very often. If the price stays above 200-DMA, it’s a bullish sign, whereas a move below it signals a bearish sentiment.

“Given global concerns, most of the stocks have underperformed for good reason and should be left out. Weakness in index heavyweight Reliance Industries appears as a precursor to some correction in coming days. If the market stays below 5000 levels then we might see 4600 on the Nifty,” said Sandeep J Shah, CEO, Sampriti Capital.

The stocks may have fallen temporarily and look bearish on the charts. However, they can be picked up at current levels for the long-term period of over a year.

“Investors can enter these stocks at current levels for a holding period of minimum one year. Investors can put 25% of the funds at these levels and wait to accumulate at lower levels,” said Ajay Parmar, head of research at Emkay Global Financial Services.

Indian shares may fall as much as 10%

Indian shares may fall as much as 10%


MUMBAI: The dream run of emerging market stocks may be coming to an end, with risk-averse global investors pulling out funds as the world stares at the spectre of sinking back to economic contraction with troubles brewing in Europe and China.

International investors have pulled out $890 million from India this month, the highest since January 2009 following the collapse of Lehman Brothers, in what could just be the beginning if global economic problems persist.

Shaky markets and the possibility of policy actions such as interest rate hikes to stave off inflationary threats may be a drag on emerging stocks for some months to come. Indian shares may fall as much as 10%, say investors.

“Emerging markets have had a great run, but now investors are taking a breather,” said Jyotivardhan Jaipuria, managing director and head-India research at BoA Merrill Lynch. “Our fund manager survey indicates that they have become more cautious about investing in emerging markets.”

The MSCI Emerging Markets index is down about 9% from last month’s highs and China is down more than 20%. Indian stocks are down 6.5% from their peak, after climbing 81% in 2009.

International markets have been see-sawing as some believe the $1-trillion European Union aid package to save economically troubled nations such as Greece and Spain may not be enough to prevent another credit crisis. Rising fears about China’s growth faltering due to government attempts to cool down the economy have exacerbated investor concerns.

“The European crisis will impact India flows negatively in the near term as risk taking gets cut back,’’ said Pankaj Vaish, managing director and head-equities at Nomura.

Emerging market equity funds had a second straight week of redemptions, according to EPFR data for week ended May 12.

China equity funds posted their second straight week of outflows. Emerging Europe, Middle-East and Africa funds also lost $350 million. As investors flee to safe-haven assets such as the US treasury and gold, Indian stocks could fall further, investors say.

“There could be continued short-term selling in emerging markets and Indian equities. Markets could fall another 5-10% from these levels,” said Sam Mahtani, director, emerging market equities, at F&C Asset Management. “There will be no upmove till such time fears recede over global issues.’’

US assets such as the treasury, shares and gold are preferred as they are seen as safe, at least for now. Shares in the US are up 2% this year. The US dollar has once again emerged as a safe-haven asset even for central banks. Central banks across the globe raised their holdings to $2.7 trillion in March, from $2.67 trillion in February. Gold prices are near record highs.

Emerging market growth, which has been higher than the developed world in the last decade, is also under threat given that most central banks are poised to raise interest rates to temper inflation. China’s inflation rate may touch 3% soon, prompting a rate increase, and in India it is already above the central bank’s target.

“Systemic risk has reduced for the moment but investors know it has not vanished,” said Munish Varma, head-global markets India at Deutsche Bank. "That has prompted investors to liquidate some of their risky holdings and move into safer assets as seen from the demand for US treasuries last week and record high price of gold.”

Sensex below 15,300 would enter bear market


he market started the week with a very strong rally on Monday, but lost steam to end with a greatly reduced gain of 1.34%, or 225.49 points. The Nifty finished 1.50% up, and the CNX Midcap Index gained 1.83%. Mahindra & Mahindra was the biggest winner among the index stocks with a 7.0% gain. The other index stocks to go up included Tata Motors, HDFC Bank, DLF and Reliance Infrastructure with gains between 7% and 4.7%.

Cipla was the biggest loser among the index stocks with a 8.4% fall. The other index stocks to go down included Bharti Airtel, Reliance Communications, Sterlite Industries and Tata Steel with losses falling between 8.1% and 1.8%.

Bajaj FinServ was the biggest winner among the more heavily traded non-index stocks with a 35% gain.

INTERMEDIATE TREND:

The market’s intermediate trend is still down, but could turn up if there is a decent rally early this week.

However, the odds would recede if the decline persists, and the indices go below their recent lows (16,684 for the Sensex). The Sensex would need to go above 17,400 for an intermediate uptrend. The corresponding figure is 5,225 for the nifty and 7,975 for the CNX Midcap index. (Figures rounded up to the nearest 25).

LONG-TERM TREND:

Our market’s long-term trend is up, as the indices made new bull market highs during the preceding intermediate uptrend. However, about 15% of the more heavily traded stocks are in major downtrends, and more are entering one during this decline.

The Sensex would enter a bear market if it falls below 15,300, the Nifty under 4,500, and the CNX Midcap below 6,350. Most global markets are also in major uptrends at this time. The lower of the past two intermediate bottoms for the indices has been taken as the bear market trigger, as they are very close to each other.

TRADING & INVESTING

STRATEGIES:

Increasing portfolio exposure should be avoided for now, as the bull market has run for over two years, making this a little too late to get in. If cash must be invested, wait for this intermediate downtrend to end. It would be a good move to keep portfolios defensive by switching out of highly volatile sectors such as sugar, real estate, construction, airlines, financial services and even metals, even though some of these stocks had done well in the past rally.

TCS, Bharti among world's most sustainable cos

*******************************************

It's advantage bears below 5,130


After a hectic trading week, the markets ended with gains, despite the near 300-point fall in the Sensex on Friday. The BSE benchmark index rallied to a high of 17,389, but closed the week with a gain of 225 points at 16,995.

Among index stocks, Mahindra & Mahindra and Tata Motors rallied 7 per cent each to Rs 523 and Rs 763, respectively. HDFC Bank, DLF, Reliance Infrastructure, Wipro, ICICI Bank and Tata Power were the other major gainers. Cipla and Bharti Airtel tumbled over 8 per cent each to Rs 313 and Rs 264, respectively. Reliance Communications, with a fall of 5.5 per cent, was the other major loser.

The markets' failure to sustain at higher levels is a sign of concern, and with every passing day it seems the bears are tightening their grip. For the moment, it looks like the bears will continue to have the upper hand as long as the Sensex stays below 17,080.

On the downside, the Sensex may revisit its recent low of 16,700, and has an outside chance of dropping all the way to 15,400 in case of extremely negative global factors. Next week, the Sensex is likely to face resistance around 17,220-17,290-17,360 and get support around 16,770-16,700-16,630.

The NSE Nifty moved in a range of 186 points — from a low of 5,027, the index surged to a high of 5,213, but finally settled with a gain of 75 points at 5,094.

The corresponding pivot level for the Nifty is 5,130. It will be advantage bears as long as the index stays below 5,130. Above this, the index may face resistance around 5,185-5,210. On the downside, the index is likely to find support around 5,020-5,000-4,980.

The medium-term (50-days) moving average of the Nifty has now crossed its short-term (20-days) moving average, which suggests bearishness in the short term and a neutral trend in the medium to long term. The medium-term moving average is 5,219 and the short-term moving average is 5,200.

The momentum indicators, MACD, Directional index and Stochastic slow, are in sell mode. However, the strength of the directional index is below 30 per cent, which suggests the trend is rather weak. Hence, there could be whipsawn movements till we get a clear indication.

Euro tumbles to 14-month low under $1.25

Euro tumbles to 14-month low under $1.25


LONDON: The euro nosedived under 1.25 dollars on Friday, striking a new 14-month low, and equities slumped as markets were slammed by fresh concerns about the eurozone financial crisis, dealers said.

Paul Volcker, a special adviser to President Barack Obama and a former Federal Reserve chairman, spooked markets late Thursday when he warned of the "potential disintegration of the euro," according to analysts.

At 0917 GMT, the shared European unit staggered to 1.2465 dollars, striking a level which was last seen on March 4, 2009.

European stock markets also headed lower, with Frankfurt dropping 1.03 percent, London sliding 1.45 percent and Paris plunging 2.37 percent. Madrid meanwhile slumped by more than four percent in value.

"Clearly, I think we have to say that the euro failed and fell into a trap that was evident at the beginning," Volcker said at an event in London late on Thursday.

"I think Europe's going to have to decide in the end whether to get more integrated or to get less integrated, in which case the euro is the question."

Derek Halpenny, economist at The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ in London, expressed his amazement at the comments.

"It is quite something for an official from the US administration, Paul Volcker, to openly discuss his view of a 'potential disintegration of the euro' and this will surely not go down well amongst eurozone officials," he said.

"But judging from the comments by ECB President Trichet that the eurozone needs 'fundamental changes', it may be that Trichet privately shares Volcker's view."

Europe woes not over yet: CLSA ( Read Our 1500th post given about CLSA)

With its USD 1 trillion rescue package from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union, Europe may have managed to dodge the bullet, but the problems are not yet over, says Russell Napier, Strategist, CLSA. “The ECB wants parts of Europe to deflate. However, deflation, both politically and socially is impossible,” he says.

There has been a face off between the ECB and the European governments, he says, adding that the crisis could have been as big as Lehman. However, now, the risk is much lower than last week.

On India, Napier says, it is time to be cautious on Asian equities. “West is at the bottom of the credit cycle and China, along with India, is near the top of it,” he adds.

With a long-term bullish outlook on India versus China, he says the equity capital is over committed to Asia.
