Only Ambani’s needed in India……

I wish we had some more Ambani brothers…

Yes that’s true. It seems that the Indian markets needed only Ambanis’. The rumors about the Ambani brothers getting together sparked the Indian markets in the week. Mukesh Ambani and ADAG lead stocks rallied the most. Since last 15 to 20 days, I could read only ambani brothers stories in all most all the news papers. Markets men talking only about the Ambani brothers. Major activity in the Ambani brothers companies were as follows.

Indian markets surged almost 3 % in the week. Nifty on Monday closed above its resistance level of 5175-5180 levels. Next day the same was broken and the Nifty closed above the 5200 levels after taking support at 5170 levels. On Wednesday Nifty closed at 5233 levels.

In my last article it was mentioned that the Nifty closed above its 100 & 200DMA. Decisive broke out above the same can take the Nifty to 5250 levels. Close above the same will take the Nifty to its next level of 5325-5375 levels.

Its been seen in the past also that whenever the Nifty approaches the 5200 levels, markets men try to short the market in anticipation that the markets might correct. It had happened several times in the past. But this time the scenario is totally different. Nifty according to me will make new high and might cross the 5300 levels.

Yes I have mentioned in the past also that there are still dark clouds in the Global markets and for the Indian markets Inflation is a major concern, But there is no other bad news for create new pressures on the government and this might lead to increase in the interest rate.

On Friday the benchmark Nifty snapped the 7 day winning streak and closed in negative. Ambani brothers stocks lost the most triggering the sell off in the Indian markets. Nifty some how managed to hit the 5300 mark in the intraday trade but closed below the same at 5262. Sensex closed down 46 points at 17570.

Nifty has bounced back sharply from the over sold zone. And closed above its 200 DMA. Nifty resistance levels are at 5325-5375.

BUY Gillette Ind. Cmp 1678.

BUY BOC. Cmp 288.

Still there is lot of steam there in the company pricing. Both the stocks have surged in the near past. Wait for some correction and then buy……..

The only thing that is going in my minds since last few months is that, What will the Government of India will do with the Rs. 40000 Cr which they have planned to raise by selling the stake in their loss making company. The GOI have planned to rope in some investors to sell their 10% stake in the Hind copper ltd. But did anyone seen the companies balance sheet, the PE at which the company is trading. What ever said and done….. But where will the money go into. ALL the corrupt Netas of the nation????

Nifty on Monday closed above its resistance level of 5175-5180 levels. Next day the same was broken and the Nifty closed above the 5200 levels after taking support at 5170 levels. Yesterday Nifty closed at 5233 levels.

In my last article it was mentioned that the NIfty closed above its 100 & 200DMA. Decesive broke out above the same can take the Nifty to 5250 levels. Close above the same will take the Nifty to its next level of 5325-5375 levels.

Its been seen in the past also that whenever the Nifty approaches the 5200 levels, markets men try to short the market in anticipation that the markets might correct. It had happened many times in the past. But this time the scenario is totally different. Nifty according to me will make new high and might cross the 5300 levels.

Yes I have mentioned in the past also that there are still dark clouds in the Global markets and for the Indian markets Inflation is a major concern, But there is no other bad news for the Indian markets.

Welcome to the FIFA 2010 and Global crisis…….

64 matches will be played within 32 countries. $12.64bn amount world cup will pump into South African economy. 695000 Jobs will be created within 31 days of the tournament. 373000 visitors expected in SA. 3.3m spectators will be viewing the match LIVE. 26.3 bn TV viewer ship. With 214 countries watching.

Japan too in the race for bankruptcy… Just chill. There is still no news for the same. But the Prime minister of Japan has given indication about the increase in bad debts.

It’s been a Global recovery this weekend. Indian markets too followed the rally. But the fall in the initial days of the week treble the markets men. Nifty once again closed below the 200DMA but bounced back sharply to close above the 5100 levels. Positive global cues and buying in heavyweights like RIL and leading banks helped the markets to gain in the end of the week.

Markets corrected since the start of the week. As mentioned in my last article that the markets may feel some heat and Indian markets might correct in the coming weeks. Nifty even after closing in the positive zone on last Friday 04^th June, corrected heavily on Monday and Tuesday. Nifty made a low of 4967 below the 200DMA after closing 5135 on 4^th June. Sensex made a low of 16560.

Sensex almost rallied nearly 200 points on Friday but corrected in the post lunch session. The news in the markets was that the Japan Prime minister has hinted about the countries debt. But few articles back also I had mentioned about the debts of the various countries. There was nothing new in the news. It was just another round to panic the investors and trying to short sell or it may be some case of profit booking.

IIP grows17.6% in April vs 13.5% in March. The country’s IIP output rose for the 7^th month in April. There was strong growth in capital goods sector, which rose 72.8% from negative 5.9% on year on year basis. India's Index of Industrial Production (IIP) has maintained its double-digit growth rate for the sixth month in a row in Apr’10, backed by a strong growth in manufacturing and mining sectors, particularly capital goods.

The data enhanced the estimated growth rate for Mar’10 to 13.9% from the earlier 13.5%. The growth rate of the manufacturing sector surged 19.4% in Apr’10, as against 0.4% in Apr’09. The power sector fell by 6% in Apr’10, as against 6.7% in Apr’09. The mining sector grew by 11.4%, compared to the growth of 3.4% in Apr’09. Fifteen out of the 17 industry groups showed a positive growth in April, compared to the corresponding month of the preceding year. During April, the growth rate in six core-infrastructure industries, having a combined weightage of 26.7% in the IIP, was 5.1%, up from the 3.7% in Apr’09, mainly driven by growth in the production of finished steel, petroleum and crude oil.

Euro almost crashed to 1.20 as compared to dollar. Debts in the Euro countries are spreading like a Cancer.

Nifty is once again near its resistance level of 5150-5187 levels. This week also Nifty corrected from almost the same levels. Nifty closed above the 200DMA on Thursday. On Friday, Nifty closed above the 100DMA also. Nifty will continue to find support at the 5000 levels. Nifty will face resistance at 5180-5187 levels.

Is it recovery time or correction time???

Wow it’s been a great recovery in the Indian markets. From the low of 4786 in the last week, Nifty bounced back to close higher at 5000 mark once again. But the worry is still that, will the markets stabilize here??? Not only Indian markets, Global markets flared within the week. Indian markets closed higher for the week. On the last day of the week, European markets were trading higher but as the Indian markets closed the Euro markets tanked.

ECB said Euro Zone banks would need to make provisions for further losses of E90bn this year and E105bn in 2011, on top of some E238bn in debts written off by the end of 2009. After the Lehman Brothers collapsed in Sep 2008, the ECB began offering Euro zone banks unlimited, flat rate loans in a bid to revive inter-bank lending and keep credit flowing to the real economy. Last Friday Spain the 4^th largest Euro Zone economy saw its credit rating downgraded a notch by Fitch Ratings agency from the min AAA to AA+.

Nifty closed higher at 5135 after making a high of 5147. Nifty gained 1.3%. Sensex for the week gained nearly 250 points or 1.5% and closed higher at 17117 levels. Mid cap & the Small Cap Index were the star performer gaining 2 – 2.5%. Smallcap Index was up 1.7%. For the Index gainers ONGC contributed 5%, Ril infra, Rel Cap & Sbi by 4.5% each. Auto stocks flared gaining almost 4.4%. Maruti contributed 8.5%, MNM by 7 & Herohonda by 3.8%.

Telecom stocks did pretty well. Government made a killing by 3G Auction for Rs.68000 CR. But this created pressure on the Telecom companies. Companies raised money from the Banks to pay back the govt. But still the stocks pretty well on the brousers. Rcom surged almost 14% in a week on news that the company is in talks with Etisalat or Merger with MTN. Idea was also in the news that the Mukesh Ambani may take over Idea after the breakup of the agreement with the Ambani brothers. Bharti Aritel jumped 5.5%. Metal stocks were down. Stelite closed lower at 4.8%, JSPL by 3.8%. FMCG Index was up almost 3.6%. HUL surged 6.4% on back of Buyback news and ITC by 2.6%.

Rupee after making a low of 47.7 against Dollar, bounced back to 46.85 levels.

As mentioned in my last article that the Nifty might face resistance at the trendline and the same thing happened. Nifty tanked when it could not close above the trendline on the first day of the week. Nifty made a low of 4961 and closed below 200DMA. But bounced back sharply to cross over the 200DMA and the 100DMA. Nifty broke the 5^th wave and closed above the trendline. As mentioned in the last article the MACD may show some positive up move. RSI also showed strength when it was trading near the over sold zone.

Markets have bounced back sharply on back of Global markets recovery. Most of the markets a man have come in the positive route and expects the markets to continue the upside move for some more time. European markets closed higher on back of the bail out package. But the worry is still there in the global markets. Dark clouds are still there. Any bad news will spoil the sentiment of the Indian markets. Markets may correct in the next week.

Nifty will face stiff resistance at 5150-5187 levels.

BUY Relcap, close above 681.

BUY Infosys above 2735.

The Paris based Organisation of Industralised nations raises its forecasts for global growth to 4.6% in 2010 and 4.5% in 2011 from 3.4% & 3.7% after a contraction of 0.9% in 2009. Unemployment in 31 members countries may have peaked at around 8.5%. The OECD also said that interest rates should start rising by the end of the year in the US, the UK and Canada, as the global economic recovery continues.

The OECD raised its forecast for US economic growth in 2010 and 2011 to 3.2% each, from 2.5% and 2.8% in its forecasts of last November. Japan's growth will be 3% in 2010 and 2% in 2011, up from 1.8% and 2% previously. The euro-zone will lag with growth of 1.2% and 1.8% this year and next, still marginally more than forecasts of 0.9% and 1.7% announced in November 2009.

US bank exposure to the European Union as a whole was $1.5tn, but still the US guys are giving surety that the banks would not end up having trouble. Marketsmen are predicting a double digit in US.

Germany proposed naked short selling ban to include all German-listed stocks. Italy has also joined Europe’s austerity club with deep spending cuts.

We cannot rule out that we will not see another blood bath in the world markets. It may happen as Euro countries are facing a major financial crisis and the Euro is under pressure. Other key economies like China, Japan, the UK and the US also have their own set of issues to overcome.

Nifty for the week made a low of 4786. On Tuesday Nifty closed below the trendline but closed above the 4800 mark. As mentioned in my last article that the Nifty if closes below the 4800 levels may take it to the next level of 4600. But the markets bounced back sharply. World markets too gave good support. Europe markets and the US markets bounced back sharply. Indian markets to closed higher. Nifty for the week closed higher at 5066 after making a low of 4786. Sensex closed at 16863 and the low was 15960.

Nifty for the week closed above its 200DMA, but faced resistance at the 20DMA. Nifty may face resistance at the trendline (as marked in the chart). Chart suggests that as per the wave theory, Nifty is in its 5^th wave. It was also mentioned that the RSI was near the over bought sold which bounced back sharply. MACD is also trying to be positive.

At the close of the Friday trading session, Dow futures were trading in the positive zone. Personally do not feel like the markets will still be so comfortable trading in the coming week. Markets have bounced back sharply in the last week. Nifty bounced back 250 points in the last 3 days and Sensex nearly 900 points. Nifty will face resistance at the trendline. We might see some more correction.

Last weeks article title was “ Is this the end of correction” and the markets bounced back from the low of 4786 as mentioned. It won’t be so easy for the investors to search for the diamond at the decent buy price. Investors are still advised to wait till some more time.

FII’s continued to dump their stocks in the Indian markets. They sold almost $1bn worth of stocks since last thursday. DII’s remained net buyers to the tune of $500mn.

Last weeks call..
Short TCS below 710 made a low of 691.

Short DLF below 260 made a low of 254.

==>> Its all over for the Bulls....

It's been a long wait for the Bears to get the control of the markets. Since the start of the week, Sensex lost almost 750 points from the yesterdays high. Nifty made a low of 4786 and closed marginally above the 4800 mark. Nifty closed down 2.78% or 137 points at 4806. Sensex sinked more than 500 points but recovered marginally in the end. Since the close below the 200DMA, Nifty seems to have a very bad time. Nifty faced resistance at 4950 levels, crossover of the level triggered heavy selling in the markets. With the expiry date nearing the volatility in the markets was at top. Yesterday Sensex fell from the high of almost 300 points slipped down 700 points till today. FII's remained net seller. The selling continued since the start of the month. FII have sold almost Rs.10K Cr of stocks till date. DII's on the other hand has been net buyers, but the question is "TILL WHEN they could buy". Are our Domestic funds sitiing on cash, that could be pumped in the markets during the FII sell off. Its not only the Indian markets who are feeling the heat. Its a Global Sell off. European markets were down more then 3%. Dow futures were down 150 points post lunch session. As mentioned in my earlier articles also, the Euro problems wont be solved out with few bn dollars. They need really BIG money for the bailout. Investors are adviced to wait for the markets to settle. Nifty close below the 4800 levels might see some the level of 4780- 4692.

On back of positive close in the US markets, our markets today opened pretty well, but in the end markets tanked to trade in the negative zone. Sensex which was trading more then 300 points post lunch session slipped down nearly -25 points.

==>> Is this the end of the correction???

Is the Indian markets bottomed out???? This is the question in everyone’s mind. But this may not be correct….

This is just a technical bounce back from the 4850 levels. Below 4980 levels Nifty finds support at 4850 levels and that was mentioned in my last article. Recovery in the European markets and US futures triggered the pull back in the Indian markets.

In the last week it was mentioned in my article that the Nifty has closed below its 100 DMA. And now, the Nifty is below its 200DMA also. For the first time since April 2009 Nifty closed below the 200DMA on Wednesday.

Euro problems are not seems to be fading out so easily. Some even bets that the problem will not be solved even with the $1tn bailout. On Thursday evening US markets fell sharply on back week data for the first time since the start of the new financial year, which created doubt about the sustainability of its recovery in the second half of this year. Thursday on growing fears the euro zone's efforts to tackle its sovereign debt crisis will fall short, jeopardizing the global economic recovery. The number of US workers filing new applications for unemployment benefits unexpectedly rose last week for the first time since early April. The index of leading economic indicators slipped last month for the first time since March 2009, while factory activity in the US mid-Atlantic region accelerated less than expected in May.

Four Years of delay in the auction of 3G mobile spectrum had bought unexpected revenues to the Government. Govt managed to garner nearly $15bn (68k Cr). The country’s top two mobile firms—Bharti Airtel and Reliance Communications (RCOM)—each won 13 of the 22 telecom zones on offer while other major operators Vodafone Essar, Idea Cellular and Tata won a total of 9, 11 and 9 circles, respectively. Bharti, RCOM and Vodafone won the coveted 20-year licences for Delhi and Mumbai, which account for a lion’s share of the country’s customers and revenues and attracted top bids of Rs 3,317 crore and Rs 3,247 crore, respectively—effectively Rs 166 crore and Rs 162 crore per year of the licence period. The auctions were for a maximum of three operator slots in all but one circle. Staterun BSNL and MTNL will be the fourth operator of 3G services.

Not only the Equity, even the commodities and the currency felt the heat. Gold fell down to $1181. Rupee tumbled to its 27 week low. Rupee closed down at 46.96.

FII’s for the week remained net sellers to the tune of Rs.3700 Cr while DII’s were Rs.1500Cr.

According to the Indian Meteorological Department there will be good Monsoon season. Good Rains would raise farm output, boost rural incomes and lower flood inflation. But at noticed in the past also our Met Dept’s prediction have never been right. So all I could say is “May God Bless Us”. Still if the rains are not good, then will surely see another fall in the Indian markets.

The latest data showed the food price inflation picked up for the second consecutive week in early May 2010. The food price index rose 16.49% in the year to 8 May 2010, a tad higher than the prior week's annual reading of 16.44% as fruit and vegetables prices climbed on the back of a heat wave. The fuel price index was steady at 12.33%, while the primary articles index was up 16.19% versus 16.76%

India's exports rose an annual 36% to $16.9 billion in April 2010 as demand picked up for gems and textiles while imports rose an annual 43% to $27.3 billion buoyed by industrial recovery, stronger domestic growth and rising oil prices

UPA govt has successfully completed its 365 days as the ruling party. This year has been very good for the UPA govt. Government raise money via selling stakes in the govt owned companies. 3G mobile Spectrum sale helped govt garner nearly Rs.68kCr. But the question which rose in my mind is, “Is the govt doing anything for the raise in the corruption levels, raise in the food prices….”

We might see some bounce back as the Nifty is very close to its support level of 4850, but I do not think that it is still the right time to buy in the markets. Indian markets and the Global markets are still in the correction mode. Euro problems are still far from getting solved. Euro countries will still require more such kind of bailout.

But the markets might see some bounce back, as seen in the chart attached together.. A similar of a Hammer like patter was seen. From there the markets had bounced back. Nifty is almost at the same levels with almost the similar type of the candle stick pattern. RSI is closing near the oversold zone. Nifty is closes below the 4800 levels then we could see 4600 levels in Nifty.

Last weeks call..

Short SBI with SL of 2242. Low was 2141 after that Sl triggered

Short Rel capital with SL of 684. Low was 611.

Short Tata Steel below 542. Low 487.

Current Weeks call…

Short DLF below 260

Its been a very volatile session for the Indian markets. Bse Sensex plunging down to sub zero levels from the high of 200 points and again back to northward direction to close up nearly 110 points. But Rupee could not stand this effect. Rupee continued to meltdown. It slide nearly 47 for June expirty contract and current month was down to 46.80 levels.

In the Intraday trade nifty made a low and high of 4924 & 4980. As mentioned that the Nifty will face stiff resistance at the 4980 levels. Nifty closed at 4954 and Sensex closed at 16520 levels. Markets will continue to slide. Nifty once again closed down the 200DMA.

Euro problems have really take the rest of the world for granted. As mentioned in my last update Nifty had closed below the 100DMA last friday. Today nifty broke its support level of 4980 and closed at 4919.65 down by 146 points. Nifty dropped and closed below its 200 DMA. Since May 2009 Nifty never closed below the 200DMA. For the 1st time it closed below its 200DMA.
For immediate support will be seen at 4890 levels, but the movement may lead to break the same and Nifty could fall down to its next support levels of 4850 levels. In the past also we have seen that 4850 seems to be a very good support level.

RIL close below 990 tgt 960

Euro Debt have taken toll on the World

It’s been long time I had written any article in this news letter. Nothing major had happened for quite a sometime. It’s been same old things of the countries facing bankruptcy. After Spain and Greece it was Portugal to go for austerity measures. Euro debt by some of the European countries gets some more countries in the trap. Greece owes $226bn to other countries. IMF came out with a $962bn rescue package. Not only Greece, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and Spain. Portugal owes $286bn to other countries, Ireland $867bn, Spain $1.1tn, Italy $1.4tn.

France $511bn or 20% of its GDP. It owes Germany $190bn. Spain in turn owes Germany $238bn and France $220bn. Ireland owes $184bn to Germany and $60bn to France. Portugal owes $47bn to France. And the smallest of them all, Greece owes Germany $45bn and France $75bn. The Moral of the story is, if one country fails to make the payment then the rest of the countries might also get trapped in the same bankruptcy scene.

On Monday Markets surged sharply on back of rescue package for the Euro debt ridden countries which was announced late Sunday evening. On Monday markets opened with a gap. Till mid afternoon our markets were marginally up, but the opening of the European markets our markets too saw a sharp rise. European markets were nearly 5-10% up in the opening session. Later in the evening the US markets also closed higher. But the rescue package announced does not mean that all the problems in the European countries have been wiped off.

The heat was felt till the end of the week. Markets continued to be volatile. As usual Nifty faced resistance at 5200 levels. Even after making a high above 5200 levels, Nifty could not close above the same. Nifty closed down at 5093 down by nearly 90 points on the last day of the week. Sensex too close below the psychological figure of 17000. Sensex closed down 271 at 16994 after sinking nearly 300 points. Nifty chart suggests that there is still more pain that can be felt in the coming week. Nifty is showing weakness. Nifty could come down to 4850 levels if it closes below 4980. In the chart we can clearly see that the Nifty after making 3 tops at 5200 levels in the current week corrected to make a low of 5070 and closed below the 100DMA. RSI is also showing negative trend. MACD in the past 1 month had never given any long term bullish signal. Through out the period it has been negative. There was absolutely no sign of bullish trend.

FII and DII activity also have been lackluster in the week. Inflation for the week cooled off a bit. IIP numbers announced in the week were also upto the mark.

China property bubble news is also heating up. I really do not think any problem in the Chinese markets.

Aban Offshore shares plunged nearly 17% down on back of one of its Semi –sub rigs sinked. The impact could be on some of the banks too.

Short SBI with SL of 2242.

Short Rel capital with SL of 684.

Short Tata Steel below 542.

Sugar Prices are almost down to Rs.30 in the retail stores. From the high of almost 45-48. In the article dated 12^th March 2010, this writer had informed that the price rise in the Indian markets have been unrealistic. The producers who were selling the same at the lower prices now. Some Mills in Maharashtra sold sugar at Rs 2500/- a quintal on Monday. Last month, the Maharashtra Federation decided not to sell sugar below Rs 3,250 a quintal. “It lasted hardly for a day. Prices have been continuously declining since then,” said a trader. If you see the trend in the last 10-20 years, you can see that sugar commands premium during April when soft drinks' companies place huge orders. This year, we are seeing prices dropping. Sugar stocks will continue to slide down...

Markets end with choppy trading session for the whole week. Major Indices continued to correct and lost nearly 2%. Small cap Index outperformed the major indices by slipping just a few points. While the Frontline stocks continued their slide, on the other side the select Midcap and Smallcap stocks fired up.

Markets remained in the correction mode for most of the week. With the results season also on the way or is there, markets remained almost flat to negative. Markets men fear any new positions in the markets. Infosys came with its Quarter results. Guidance was pretty below the market expectation.

The only Index to gain in the current week was the IT Index, which rallied almost 3%. Infosys was the major contributor to the gain. It was up more than 4%. TCS & Hexaware surged more then 2% each. Rest all the Indices saw negative growth. With the report by the evaluator stating that the reserves in the D9 have been estimated to only half of the actual estimated of 10.6tcf. Ril Ind shares corrected nearly 4% in a week. Which triggered the Oil Index to correct 3.3%. Ongc & Gail too slipped 3% each.

Auto Index also corrected. Hero Honda contributed the most by shirking 6.5% & MNM by 5.4%. Tatamotor was also down. But the Tata Motor DVR up nearly 13% on back so valuing buying in that. Bank Index was down almost 3.5%. Icici bank corrected 6%. Axisbank & SBI 3% each.

Sesagoa

Sesagoa looks good on the charts. Traders can buy the stock at the cmp of 472, as it has given a buying breakout above 469 levels. Buy with the price target of 485-490++. SL to be mentioned at 462.

ICICI BANK

Short ICICI below 912 SL 920.

Indices

Global markets too helped the markets trigger the loss, but the Indian markets were lucky not to have that kind of windfall as the other Asian and the European markets felt.

Nifty closed below its 20DMA at 5262 levels, and will continue to be weak till the time its is down y another 100-150 points. Yes Nifty could fall down to 5100-5150 levels. Nifty close below the 5254 levels may weaken it more. Macd has also given negative trigger. Volumes have been flat. Rate hike possible in the coming week. Inflation almost at the top.

Steel stocks are looking very strong. Traders can take long positions in the select metal stocks like Tata Steel, Sesagoa.

Market closed at 17935 which just a few steps away from the 18000 mark. It will cross even 18300 in coming weeks.

This is earning season and 13^th April is a big day. May be market could react on either side depending on Infosys guidance as Rupee has already breached 45 and its next destination is 42. If the guidance is still good then the same could be used for some distribution in tech sector and hence I would suggest investors to stay away. If guidance is bad then the whole market will tank for correction. Hence limit your F & O exposure before this event.
