Indian Rupee

Rupee Heads for Biggest Monthly Decline in a Year Indian rupee headed for its worst month in a year on concern any reduction in bond-buying by the Federal Reserve will curb dollar supply, leaving the Asian currency vulnerable to a record current-account deficit. The rupee weakened 4.8% this month to 56.53 against US$ as of 10:16 a.m. in Mumbai, the biggest loss since May 2012, It dropped 0.3% today, touching the weakest level since June 29, 2012, and fell 1.6% this week. India’s balance of payments is under stress, RBI Governor Duvvuri Subbarao said in Ahmedabad yesterday, adding that it is a challenge to attract stable capital flows. "The shortfall in the current account, the broadest measure of trade, probably widened to a record of around 5% of GDP in the year ended March 31.Global funds have been net sellers of rupee-denominated debt each day since holdings touched a record $38.5 billion on May 21, exchange data show, while they have bought $14.9 billio

Nifty Next Week

Nifty opened gap up as expected. Nikkie not only recovered but was in positive territory from yesterdays levels. This is simply because there are set norms in the market where some or other investors come as value buyers.  In India this is just impossible as there is cash settlement. Even if I have Rs 10000 crs today for investment in equity I cannot invest in equity for the simple reason there cannot be fair return on my investments in India unless I am part of the cartel either bear or bull. Hence genuine cash rich straight forward investors will never invest in Indian markets in current scenario where stock prices fluctuate 30 to 50% just for the settlement issues. I had mentioned when Wockhardt was at Rs 1900 to stay away from this stock as any downgrade can wipe off your 50% of investment in no time. See what happened...? From high of Rs 2100 low of Rs 1060 on the FDI export ban. Now from hereon Wockhardt will rise again to Rs 150 0 and 1600 from there again selling will start. V

US Bond Market

@@ Analysis: As economy strengthens, a bonds sell-off may beckon @@ The U.S. government bond market has weakened in recent weeks but some investment strategists fear that this may only be the beginning of an extended sell-off. They point to the relative strength of the U.S. economy with the labor market stronger than anticipated, retail sales rising and consumer sentiment climbing to its highest level in almost six years. Even the U.S. budget deficit is narrowing at a surprisingly fast pace. There has been some debate as to whether the stock market is reflecting reality given the 17 percent gains in the S&P 500 to a new record this year. But some prominent strategists say it is the bond market, not stocks, that is out of step with economic conditions. James Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management in Minneapolis, said the investor confidence that has boosted risky assets like junk bonds and equities will soon lead to a move away from Treasuries. "I don

GOLD

Gold edged higher on Wednesday, buoyed by a weaker dollar after Federal Reserve officials dampened expectations that the U.S. central bank may soon exit its bullion-friendly bond purchases. * Spot gold rose 0.3 percent to $1,379.56 an ounce by 0108 GMT, but remains not far off a two-year low. Spot silver gained 1 percent to $22.61 an ounce, regaining more ground after dropping to 2-1/2-year lows earlier this week. * U.S. gold was little changed at $1,378.80 an ounce. * Gold has been pressured in recent weeks by fears the Federal Reserve could scale back or halt its monthly $85 billion bond purchases that have buoyed bullion's appeal as a hedge against inflation. * But New York Fed President William Dudley and St. Louis Fed chief James Bullard, who will both vote at the June 18-19 meeting, made clear further economic progress was needed before they would support curtailing bond purchases. * Investors are eyeing Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's testimony in Congress about the state o

Indian Market and The Federal Bank Stimulus

India’s rupee fell the most in a week on concern the Federal Reserve will scale back stimulus measures that have  contributed to inflows to emerging markets. Fed Bank of San Francisco President John Williams said yesterday that the  central bank may reduce its $85 billion in monthly bond-buying as early as this summer amid signs the economy is  gaining strength. India’s highest interest rate among Asia’s largest economies will attract foreign capital, limiting the  rupee’s losses, according to DBS Bank Ltd. Global funds boosted holdings of Indian debt to a record $37.8 billion on  May 15, exchange data show, as the 10-year sovereign note offers 547 basis points more than similar-maturity U.S. Treasuries. Americans’ confidence in the economy climbed in May to the highest level in almost six years as rising real estate values and record stock prices boosted household wealth. The gain in confidence shows Americans are overcoming the effects of higher taxes and a package of federal spendi

Market Next Week

GLOBAL STORY (18-5-2013): Finally inflation dropped below 5% which always prompted heavy short covering coupled with FII buying. This bought nifty at 6200 which is not too far from its all time high figure of 6330/6336 We had mentioned 6210 will come and nifty now close to 6200. We still believe that 6210 is a major resistance. If some deceiving more has to happen it might travel to 6250/6300 but surely correct till 6000 before loading to new levels. The settlement is expiring on 30th May which suggests 9 trading left. We had been holding our view from when that ICM & IPL are no different. IPL has come in public domain & whole world has realised about fixing .Same way (ICM) Indian capital market too will come in public domain where absence of physical settlement is used to for controlled moves in the market. The V –SHAPED movement of market is completely managed and visible but for evidence will remain under carpet till its gates get opened in public domain. Huge OI of Rs 6000

American Dollar

Most Americans are proud of the fact that we have a strong and stable currency; the dollar has maintained strong relative value against other currencies through a financial crisis, which originated in the United States and has recently strengthened significantly against gold and the yen. So why is this a "problem"? First of all, our economy seems able to function reasonably well at current relative valuation levels. The recent slowdown is likely the result of ill-advised tax increases and spending cuts; it appears that the private sector growth may enable us to avoid a recession. However, a significant appreciation of the dollar against other currencies could create problems. To better understand this, it may be helpful to go back to the early 1980s when the revered Central Banker Paul Volcker raised interest rates and tamed inflation. One result of this action was that the dollar appreciated against most other currencies; this had the beneficial effect of reducin

FII AND THE INDIAN STOCK MARKET

============================== ======================== The FII and the Indian Market Story ============================== ======================= Once upon a time in a village, a man announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs 1000. The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them.. The man bought thousands at Rs 1000 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He further announced that he would now buy at Rs2000. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms.The offer rate increased to Rs 2500 and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it! The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at Rs 5000! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now bu

Are Gold Prices A Sign That The Market Is About To Crash?

April 16, 2013 Somebody out there is sure getting prepared for something really big. We have just witnessed a drop in gold & silver unlike anything that we have witnessed in decades. On Monday, the price of gold had fallen by more than 10% at one point. It shocked investors globally, and overall what we have just seen was the largest 2 day decline in the price of gold in 30 years. The price of silver dropped even more rapidly on Monday. It was down more than 14% at one point. There was an atmosphere of “panic selling” as investors and financial institutions raced to liquidate their holdings of silver & gold. But was this exactly what someone out there wanted? Big Banks and news outlets all over the world have been boldly proclaiming for weeks that gold is entering a “bear market” and that now is the time for all of us to sell our gold. In particular, Goldman Sachs reportedly told their clients earlier this month that they “recommend initiating a short COMEX gold position“. Was
