Will Nifty consolidate further today?
Good Morning Everyone, Yesterday the market closed with minor gains which felt like the market never moved on a daily chart but on the intraday it had huge volatile moves. Of course the market we consolidating after the huge bull run from 16000, but since DIIs continue to buy at this level, it still gives us the confidence that there is more upmove left in the market. In fact, the market looks like it is just waiting to get some trigger to move up again.
Global Markets:
The US market again went to record highs yesterday after the inflation data came to be lower than expected which brought big positivity to the market, driving it higher. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 221.22 points, or 0.63%, to 35,485.89, the S&P 500 gained 11.11 points, or 0.25%, to 4,447.86 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 23.91 points, or 0.16%, to 14,764.18.
U.S. consumer price increases slowed in July even as they remained at a 13-year high on a yearly basis and there were tentative signs inflation has peaked as supply-chain disruptions caused by the pandemic work their way through the economy.
The consumer price index increased 0.5% last month after climbing 0.9% in June, the Labor Department said on Wednesday. In the 12 months through July, the CPI advanced 5.4%. The drop in the month-to-month inflation rate was the largest in 15 months.
Indian Market:
Trends on the SGX Nifty indicate a muted start for the day, however, today being expiry, we might continue to see volatility in the market.
BSE yesterday came with the news that it would introduce limits to the upper & lower circuits for some stocks in the market to avoid manipulation in some small-cap & mid-cap companies due to which we could see some sell-off in the small-cap & mid-cap segment. The BSE tightened regulations pertaining to mid and small-cap companies because they were rallying in the market because of heightened trader activity. As regards the road ahead, stocks of weaker companies may see the correction continue, but those that are relatively bigger and stronger will see investor interest come back.
Promoters of mid-and small-cap firms sold their shares worth ₹21,000 cr in the open market.
HDFC Life, Coforge, TVS Motor, CG Consumer, Max Financial Services, Quess Corp, Bharat Forge, and GMR Infra, are some of them.
The bus manufacturers in the country are not in a mood to go for capital expenditure. The move is the aftereffect of poor sales that slumped to 15,000 units in FY21 and 5,000 in Q1FY22 from about 80,000 annually before the pandemic. They think this slow patch will continue throughout the year. Big produces such as Ashok Leyland and Tata Motors are watching markets before any new investments. Now, the focus is also shifted to push electric models.
The grey market premiums for the IPOs are slowing down, This may be because so many IPOs are coming to the market one after another. With increasing borrowing costs to fund IPOs and not-so-great debuts, investors are facing losses. The weak debuts are flagging investors that the IPO bandwagon may derail.
Big private banks with their aggressive plans poaching customers from smaller banks. Larger banks are offering cost-effective loans. They have abundant liquidity and limited avenues to deploy funds. The larger banks can refinance loans with lower rates for corporate borrowers.
Over the next few years, if we expect nominal GDP to grow at an average of 10 percent, then earnings growth could be between 12-15 percent.
Companies in the mid-and small-cap categories that are leaders in their respective industries, and which demonstrate pricing power and have low debt, are likely to gain market share.
