Morning Bells (1 Feb 13)

Good Morning Friends.

A Candle never loses any part of its Light while lighting up another Candle. So, never stop supporting others, because it always makes your life more meaningful.

Once again a tricky expiry where premium of most of good stock’s Calls and Puts went down to zero. Well this was the only reason we prefer to sit on cash.

Well now new series and we hope this series will also give us good profit like Jan series. I would like to congratulate to blog followers who are silently following our blog. I also like to highlight here, people who followed our calls on blog would have made profit as per our PL sheet (in the end of this MBells) which comes to around 25K on investment of 1Lac only.

A narrow trading range on F&O expiry is not what the market had anticipated. The Indian equity markets ended with modest losses on Thursday amid a lackluster trading session. However Jan series expired by 2.1% gain which is good start of 2013. The rally could be attributed to the huge infusion of FII money into the Indian markets. In the month of January the FII’s have infused nearly 200bn. However on the other hand, the Domestic institutional investors have sucked out nearly 39bn during the month.

In addition, various government reforms and the RBI decision of cutting key interest rates for the first time in nine months also lifted the spirits

Gainers – Infosys, Wipro, Bajaj Auto, BHEL, HUL, Jindal Steel, HDFC Bank, ITC, SBI, ICICI Bank and Dr Reddys Labwere among gainers in Sensex and Nifty.

Losers - TCS, Coal India, ONGC, Sun Pharma, Gail India, BHEL, NTPC, SBI, Hindalco Inds, Hero MotoCorp, Bharti Airtel, Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra were the major losers in Sensex and Nifty.

On Domestic Front -

Indian consumers are more worried than they were a year back, according to brokerage firm Credit Suisse's consumer survey, which shows a continuing decline in consumer optimism. Reasons: high inflation and a slowing economy.

On Global front –

Most Asian markets suffered losses on Thursday, as investors reacted to a weak set of earnings reports and downbeat economic data from the U.S.

===================== MARKET OUTLOOK =====================

Stocks that can show good strength in coming days –

GMR –

Availability of coal and gas to fire extant and upcoming power projects, (2) monetization of Mumbai airport’s real estate and (3) sale of some of its assets can help to meaningfully reduce leverage (Rs 15300 crore debt against Rs 13300 crore of equity in 1HFY13).

GVK Power & Infrastructure –

Increased availability of gas could help to improve plant load factors (PLFs), revenues and profits of its power segment, (2) monetization of real estate at the Delhi airport and (3) entry of investment partners (or buyers) of some of the operating road projects can help GVK to reduce its consolidated debt burden of Rs 15500 crore (1HFY13) and increase its equity valuation

Adani Power –

A small increase in A tariff hike of Rs 0.50/kWh to offset costs in the Mundra power plant could add Rs 37 to current estimated fair value of Rs 111. We do not think a review of the PPA may be feasible. Nonetheless, reduction in fuel costs by around 20% through higher blending of low-cost coal could accrue Rs 26 to our fair valuation.average tariffs (Rs 0.25/kWh) across its projects can add 140% to our current estimated fair value of Rs 33. (2) pooling of coal prices can reduce costs by Rs 400 crore (and increase our estimated fair value to Rs 53) and (3) ramp up of Bunyu coal mine production to 10 mtpa can double the fair value estimate of APL.

Lanco Infratech –

A sustainable merchant tariff of Rs 4.0/kWh could add Rs 6 to our fair value estimate of Rs 12. In addition, allowing cost-plus tariff at Amarkantak could add Rs 3 to fair value estimates; utilization of 90% at Kondapalli could add Rs 2 to our fair value estimate.

Morning Bells (31 Jan 13)

Good Morning Friends.

Shisha aur Rishtey me sirf chhota sa farq he – Shisha Galati se toot jata he jabaki Rishtey galatfahmiyon ki wajah se toot jate he.

After opening with a slight positive bias, markets were once again stuck in a narrow trading range. With the RBI monetary announcement out of the way investors remained cautious ahead of the outcome of US Federal Reserve's monetary policy decision. Participants also preferred to stay light on their position ahead of the F&O expiry tomorrow.

Strong cues from the Asian markets also were unable to lift the sentiment on Dalal Street. However, the benchmark indices managed to eke out slim gains led by the Realty, Consumer Durables, Oil & Gas and the Banking stocks.

On the other hand, the Capital Goods index was the top loser (down 1.2%). Among the other top losers were the BSE Power index and the BSE Auto index declined by 0.7% and 0.5% respectively. The Mid-Cap and the Small-Cap index also ended in the red.

The results of the most anticipated brand study, The Brand Trust Report, India Study - 2013, are out and India has chosen its Most Trusted Brands. Crowning the list, Nokia, Samsung and Sony are India's three Most Trusted Brands this year. Nokia leads for the third consecutive year, while Samsung and Sony have both moved up two ranks from last year to occupy the 2nd and 3rd slots. BMW has made significant progress with a climb of twenty ranks to become India's 4th Most Trusted Brand.

Tata slips three positions as India's 5th Most Trusted after being in second place in the previous two years. Godrej is India's 6th Most Trusted Brand and has moved up five ranks from last year and Reliance ranks 7th having gained three positions over 2012. Bajaj slips to 8th rank moving one down from the previous year, Airtel maintains its position at 9th and LG is India's 10th Most Trusted brand, losing seven ranks from last year.

Sebi today restrained three stock brokers, including Angel Broking, from taking up new assignments for a period of two weeks for being allegedly involved in fraudulent and unfair trade practises in the shares of Sun Infoways.

The market regulator has prohibited Angel Broking, Allwin Securities and Bharti Thakkar India Securities from taking up any new assignment for two weeks. It also suspended erstwhile N C Jain (presently known as NCJ Shares and Stockbrokers Ltd) for a period of one week.

Market behaviour for most parts of January indicates that the broader market has experienced a bout of profit taking. It got masked by the strident performance of some of the large caps, particularly from the IT and the oil and gas sector, so we did not saw much correction in the Nifty or the Sensex. But midcap index performance month-to-date is flat to negative.

With the RBI policy event over this is a very crucial phase for the market and we also have the F&O expiry tomorrow. If the market is able to hold onto its levels in the next couple of days, then we are set for a slow upward move for the market leading up to the Budget.

Otherwise, profit taking bout might get a little more serious between now and the Budget and we may see the market as a whole correct, individual stocks also experiencing that profit taking before the expectations leading up to the Budget start building up and then we see the rally build up. If the Budget meets the expectation of the market sentiments then we are in for some good time, otherwise market could see some more profit taking beyond that.

Most Important –

Now focus is shifted to general Budget next month. In the backdrop of high twin deficits, moderation in inflation would only provide a ‘limited space’ for monetary easing, as per RBI. While the stance of monetary policy has shifted more decisively towards addressing growth risks, the central bank clearly wants to see more structural action from the government towards managing the fiscal and current account deficits. In this context, the upcoming budget (especially steps that would revive private investments) would be critical in determining the possibility of another rate cut in the March policy review.

Rate cut of 25 bps was expected but Cash reserve Ratio (CRR) cut was a bounty which was bit of a pleasant surprise. Surprisingly, yesterday market did not react positively but there has been huge inflow in FII numbers over last few days. According to my hypothesis, our domestic players, particularly large insurance company like Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) they are creating liquidity to participate in government disinvestment.

On one hand, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) are buying but that is met with supply from domestic institutions, so the market is not moving up. But, I think these reforms are very positive, the monetary policy easing, the interest rate cutting down. Governor has been always cautious and conservative, but he has very clearly mentioned that if current account deficit and inflation improves then one can expect more rate cuts. On fiscal front, the government is taking several steps towards reforms, like diesel price hike and cut in subsidy of LPG and fertilizer, so I am positive and optimistic, I think growth will come back. It may come back later in this calendar year, but market will look positively. So, the undercurrent is bullish. The market looks fairly positive for next 6-12 months.

Gainers – RIL, TCS, Wipro, Tata Steel, ONGC, Coal India, HDFC Bank, Maruti Suzuki were among gainers in Sensex and Nifty.

Losers - Infosys, Bharti Airtel, SBI, NTPC, ITC, Tata Power, Tata Motors, Sun Pharma, Dr Reddys Lab, L&T, Bajaj Auto, M&M were the major losers in Sensex and Nifty.

On Domestic Front -

On Global front –

Union Finance Minister of India P Chidambaram will launch a new promotion campaign here from Monday to woo European investors to India as the government struggles to reverse an economic slowdown, rein in fiscal deficit and avert a possible downgrade by the rating agencies.

Chidambaram will attend a roadshow on investment opportunities in India hosted by Deutsche Bank and Barclays Bank in Germany's financial centre and will hold discussions with leading representatives of European companiesand institutional investors.

===================== MARKET OUTLOOK =====================

As informed profit booking took place at higher levels. Market also seems choppy today with a bit volatility ahead of F&O expiry. Bull will try to pull Nifty above 6100 while bears will try to take advantage of profit booking and will try to drag Nifty 6000. Only leading companies Q3 no.s can support market before expiry.

Now all eyes will be on Q3 Nos from ICICI Bank and BHEL. Auto and cement stocks will also remain in focus as companies from these two sectors will unveil monthly sales data for January on Friday.

The INDIA VIX on NSE was down 0.62% and ended at 14.38 against previous close of 14.47.

FNO PCR is 0.91 against previous close 1.00.

Indian Rupee against USD appreciated 0.46 paisa and was trading at 53.30 against its previous close 53.76.

S&P 500 (US) was trading down at 1506.74 down 1.10 then its previous close at the time of writing M Bells.

(MG’s Note – Closely watch S&P as to my personal view S&P above 1500 a bit risky for global market.)

======================= NIFTY OUTLOOK ========================

The outlook for the near term remains a bit cautious. If The Nifty cracks below the 6000 psychological mark and stays there for a considerable period of time it is likely to see a bearish movement.

Y’day’s fall told us that market seems fatigue and hesitating to move up but still its not time for making short The short positions should be built below 6000 because still market holding its psychological level of 6000. And after a breather right now market can move up only on liquidity which will alone drive the market.

Nifty is in range of 5935-5990-6040-6090-6150 for current week.

Resistance – 6098 – 6085 – 6070 and Support – 6042 – 6028 - 6014

Opening - seems flat and then one can expect a bit choppy movements ahead of F&O expiry.

======================== STOCK OUTLOOK ======================

(Stock outlook needs to watch stock movement carefully and then one can bet after having a look, I tried to put related info which will help you in taking positions.)

Oil & Gas –

The first meeting of the newly formed Cabinet Committee on Investment today failed to break the logjam over defence clearances to oil and gas activities in 39 offshore areas, including Reliance Industries ' producing KG-D6 fields.

The CCI headed by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh asked the ministries of petroleum and defence to sort out differences on allowing exploration and production particularly in Krishna Godavari basin. The CCI, which was constituted to expedite the clearance for infrastructure projects of Rs 1,000 crore or more, took up the issue of defence ministry declaring 6 blocks in KG basin including KG-D6 producing fields and one in NEC or North East Coast region (RIL's gas discovery area of NEC-25) as "No-Go" areas and putting stringent conditions on 32 other blocks.

With gas price hike to US$8/mmbtu expected to go through, key beneficiaries Reliance Industries and ONGC have seen investor interest building up. While RIL will see benefits from FY15 onwards, ONGC and Oil India’s nomination blocks will see immediate gains. Furthermore, recent partial de-regulation of diesel prices will result in marked reduction in under recoveries leading to improved profitability.
