Nifty pauses before New Year
Markets snapped seven-week gaining streak as benchmarks ended the week with a cut of half a percent as traders opted to book profit at higher levels. Markets after hitting record highs, witnessed a bout of profit taking and lost over a percent in a single day during the week after the new Covid-19 scare with the detection of new variant JN.1 in states like Goa, Kerala and Maharashtra dented sentiments in markets. There was also talk of raids by SEBI at over 100 locations to clamp down on operators and errant stock brokers. Global stock markets rallied as economic data fueled optimism that the fed would ease monetary policy and revived investor risk appetite.
For the week, the Nifty ended down by 0.5 pct to 21,349 levels while the Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Smallcap 100 index fell 1.1 pct and 0.3 pct respectively. Sector wise, defensive sectors FMCG and Pharma index gained 1.7 pct and 1.3 pct respectively and were the top sector gainers. Nifty Bank was down 1.6 pct, Nifty Auto fell 1.4 pct and Nifty IT was down 0.4 pct.
On the institutional activity front, FIIs were net sellers to the tune of Rs 64.2 bn and DIIs were net buyers to the tune of Rs 90.91 bn.

The market volatility has been very high since the last month.Nifty on weekly basis was oscillating in 300 point range in May which has now increased to 400 points on weekly basis so far this month.

Await a Fire Sale
This volatility could unnerve even a seasoned trader but the algorithmic trading systems thrive on such volatility. FIIs continued to be net sellers to the tune of US$350 mn for the week.
The current fiasco in Maggi for Nestlé may have long term implications for the food & beverages sector which would be under the scanner of both the authorities and the media. The effect may be felt on marquee names such as HUL, Dabur, Britannia, ITC and GSK Consumer on their food portfolios. However, India being a strategic market for Nestle, I strongly feel they would take serious corrective measures to overcome this debacle and possibly come out stronger. A similar case was witnessed in Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Chocolate more than a decade back, but the company managed to reinvent itself and has grown multifold since then.
ITC woes continued after the Maharashtra government banned the sale of loose cigarettes. The stock has been reeling under selling pressure since a while trading at 52 week lows. It is trading at a discount to most other FMCG names and most of the negative news flow seem to be discounted in the current prices. Seems like the FMCG sectors has been caught in the wrong foot with series of negative news flows, forecast of below normal monsoon, dip in rural demand and high valuations will keep the pressure on for while.
As expected, May 2015 automobile numbers came in weak due to muted demand pickup; Bajaj Auto, Hero MotoCorp and Tata Motors slumped more than 4 percent each. This proves that excellent growth of April 2015 was a blip for Bajaj Auto. Maruti however was an exception on the back of higher exports resulting in a 14 percent growth. One needs to check the “Taxi” Segment demand which could have led to this divergence. Weak demand environment is expected to aggravate on back of monsoon concerns. Overall, the sector looks weak for the next few months.
Overnight on Friday, the US jobs data came in better than expected. On Monday markets are expected to react to this along with the outcome of OPEC meet on Friday where it was decided to keep the production unchanged. Lower Shale gas production as well as Rigs data which fell for the 26th straight week, initially led a rally in Oil but the OPEC meet put a lid leading to a weekly loss. However, analysts are of the opinion that US$ 60 could become the new normal for oil.
Developments in Greece will be closely watched. It notified that it plans to bundle its June loan repayments into one of around euro 1.6 billion due by the end of the month. Greece was expected to default, hence this is on the expected lines but the authorities are trying to defer the inevitable. A Grexit could lead to short term weakness in the European Markets as questions would arise about the future of the other weaker economies in the Eurozone.
For the coming week, events scheduled are Current Account Deficit, Trade Balance data, IIP (April) data and CPI (May) data. In addition to this, progress of monsoon will be keenly watched as it has already hit the Kerala Coast in South India. On the currency front, pressure on the Rupee continues on back of rise in global bond yields. I expect it to remain range bound in the near term with Rs. 64.50-65/USD as a strong resistance.
Overall, I expect markets to consolidate at these levels for the next few days as Nifty 8000/8050 provides a good support. We could even stage a feeble rally to 8200-8250 but I would suggest traders to book out of long positions as the markets may not sustain over a medium term. Monsoon progress would play a key role and the uncertainty could continue for the next few weeks. The end of June or early July could provide opportunities to investors as a fall below Nifty 8000 could lead to a fire sale which would be the time for re-building the long term portfolio.

After the 2008 global crisis, it had substantial forex losses due to which the Company had resorted to CDR in 2009. In 2013, it was able to voluntarily exit from CDR after paying a recompense amount to its lenders. Debt has come down since then. It declared its first dividend in FY14. It has undertaken expansion in FY14-15 after which its spindle capacity has gone up to 150,000 and 3,000 rotors.
So, overall the company has done a few things right which is showing in the financials. The market has recognised this in the last few weeks. At CMP of Rs 56, it is trading at PE of 6.3x its FY15 EPS of Rs 8.94 and still seems cheap compared to competitors
