Nifty Fut (Aug) today closed around 9912, plunged by almost 87 points
(-0.87%) after making an opening session high of 9989 and closing
minutes low of 9912 on renewed NK geo-political tensions & some
unconfirmed market buzz that SEBI may soon notify another list of nearly
600 cos in its “Shell” list.
Although, Govt (FMO) has tried its best to pacify the market by saying
that about a dozen of the cos under the present “Shell list” may be
permitted to resume normal trading in the bourses, once they will submit
their official explanations supported by relevant documents, the whole
matter is now at SAT and an extensive legal battle is also expected.
As par the Govt, some of the suspected Shell cos may have indulged in
money laundering during the period of DeMo and also have various
allegations from the Income Tax Dept ranging from sudden spurt in
trading during the time of note ban; MCA has already done their homework
before identified such cos as “Shell”.
Thus, although the 12 front line “multi baggers” cos may be permitted to
resume their trading after satisfactory explanation, given the fact that
a significant amount is blocked there by HNI investors & institutions,
rest of the suspected Shell cos may be continued as “multi beggars”
instead of prospective “multi baggers”.
Indian market (Nifty Fut) today opened around 9978, almost down by 26
points tracking subdued global cues amid escalation of NK-US
geo-political tensions. Most of the Asian markets except Australia are
trading in moderate to deep redamid escalation of NK-US geo-political
tensions.
As par some intelligence reports from both US & Japan yesterday, NK may
have acquired a miniature nuke head technology compatible with its ICBM;
i.e. it may have now a nuke capable ICBM/missile, which is able to hit
the mainland US.
Following this NK report, Trump has also threatened the nation with
“Fire & Fury, the world has never seen before” and in response, NK may
have also indicated to attack a US military base at Asia-Pacific Island
(Guam).
Thus, all these ongoing NK geo-political tensions has made the risk-on
sentiment adverse, USD has gone lower despite an upbeat JOLTS job
openings report yesterday; JPY, Gold & also EUR has seen some safe
heaven flows and subsequently Equities gone lower.
On economic front, today’s China CPI came bit disappointed at 1.4% for
July against estimate of 1.5% (prior: 1.5%) on YOY basis; on MOM basis
it flashed as 0.1% against estimate of 0.2% (prior: -0.2%) and PPI came
as expected as 5.5% (est/prior: 5.5%).
Although, today’s subdued China CPI/PPI numbers did not have a great
impact on the early Asian market bogged down by renewed NK-US
geo-politics, overall tepid trade balance (export/import) and subdued
PPI may be also disappointed for the reflation savvy world/DM.
A lower CPI in China may also induce PBOC to go for more deleveraging &
tighetning, which is not good for risk assets also.
Overall, Trump’s “Fire & Fury” comments may be exaggerated as being a
Nuke nation, US may not attack NK without any careful strategic planning
and thus credibility of Trump’s warning to NK may be also questionable;
but the ongoing NK jitters may be also a wonderful weapon in the hands
of Trump to simply talk down the USD without any Fed QQE.
Thus, this NK rhetoric may continue to go on in the days ahead amid
escalating “war of words” rather than “war of bullets” without any real
resolution or military conflicts (black swan event).
US market (DJ-30) closed lower (-0.15%) yesterday and SPX-500 also
closed 0.24% down, the most in the last 30 days as a result of NK
geo-political jitters, coupled with pressure on Netflix after Disney
decides to ditch the company to broadcast its contents directly.
Although, EU market yesterday closed upbeat, well off the evening lows
after EUR tumbled as a result of solid US economic data (JOLTS) and some
buzz of an early resolution of the Trumpcare fiasco; but EU futures are
now trading lower amid escalation of NK tensions & some rebound in EUR.
Indian market may have tried hard today to cover some shorts after
opening lower today; but failed after renewed concern of more cos may
come under SEBI Shell list. Subsequently, unwinding of leveraged
positions in small & midcaps space may have also affected the Indian
market sentiment today; financials & health care stocks were hit most today.
Now, market regulator SEBI need to come forward and clarify the “Shell
cos” fiasco clearly as almost Rs.9000 cr may have been stuck by the
investors & institutions in those scrips; in any way, even if SEBI
clarified about this “Shell cos”, the credibility of the overall market,
specially mid & small cap cos may be in disarray in the days ahead as
Govt may continue its ongoing war on corruption/black money ahead of
2019 general election and may not show any undue softness.
Various banks may be also in focus because some of these so called
“shell cos” may have also significant exposure to the banks; otherwise
the fund transfers across geographies & enteritis (money laundering) may
not be possible at all.
Looking ahead, apart from earnings, all eyes may be on the China border
issues, which may turn serious in the days ahead amid escalation of “war
of words” between the two countries. Also, concern of stretched
valuations (mixed Q1 earnings), slow pace of RERA implementations & GST
return fillings (adverse effect on indirect taxes revenue) and QT by
Fed/ECB may be some of the other major headwinds for the Indian market.
Nifty was today supported by Hindalco (optimistic outlook on metals &
upbeat earnings by Novelis), HDFC, NTPC, ONGC, Asian Paints, Kotak Bank,
INFY & TCS (some rebound in USDINR, despite overall weak dollar).
Nifty was dragged by Sun Pharma (terrible report card from Taro) and
other Pharma stocks on weak earnings, pessimistic outlook bogged by
increasing concern of US FDA & pricing pressure, cross currency
headwinds and domestic GST blues coupled with NPPA overhang.
Also, Tata Motors, Bajaj-Auto, Axis/ICICI/Yes Bank, LT, Maruti, HUL,
ITC, SBI & RIL has pulled the Nifty today; RIL reversed the earlier gain
today; apart from buzz of Tata Tele M&A with RIL, market may be also
concerned over its huge debt for the R-Jio.
A weak EU market tracking NK political jitters and mixed earnings may
have also affected the Indian market sentiment in the closing session
and it closed almost at the low of the day.
Elsewhere, Australia (ASX-200) is closed in green around 5765 (+0.40%)
tracking a lower AUDUSD today after subdued AU consumer confidence, home
loan & China CPI/PPI data. Also, banks & metals/miners are helping the
AU market today after upbeat earnings/guidance by CBA, which was earlier
in pressure due to cash deposit related regulatory issues.
Metals/miners are also upbeat after surge in various metals, especially
in Aluminum, which may be also a primary barometer of global growth
apart from the Copper; but most of the gains of the metals may be also
due to supply related issues amid ongoing crack down in China to stem
excess capacities and stop the overnight jumbo companies to distort the
market & further to prevent the serious problem of China air pollution.
Also, subdued trade data from China may be negative for the
metals/miners in the days ahead.
Japan (Nikkei-225) is closed in deep red around 19739, down by almost
1.29% as Yen got stronger for NK related safe haven flows affecting the
sentiment of export heavy Japanese market. Despite Japan is at striking
distance of a NK missile/Nuke, Yen is getting stronger at times of such
regional conflicts because there is a perception that Japan being the
biggest creditor of the world, investors will repatriate funds (Yen)
back to Japan in times of real crisis.
Japanese market is also being affected by a M&A news between Sumitomo &
Yahoo Japan; both of the shares are down today; but it’s being helped by
Toshiba to some extent after reports of truce with its Auditors (PWC),
which is expected to sign off its annual report card, but may be with a
negative view about its internal controls.
China(SSE) is also trading almost flat around 3276 (-0.15%) amid renewed
NK geo-political tensions, a subdued CPI & PPI and a strong Yuan with
neutral PBOC, which fixed the USDCNY at 6.7075 vs 6.7184 yesterday; at
lowest since Oct’16. A strong Yuan may be also negative for the Chinese
exports.
Hong-Kong (HKG-33) is also trading in slight red around 27760 (-0.30%)
amid increasing NK jitters as China shares a vast border with the
nation. HK market is also being affected by mixed earnings & some
deleveraging news (possible asset restructuring) of one of the debt
laden developers (Wanda).
Meanwhile, South-Korean market (Kospi) fell by around 0.7% and its
currency (Won) dropped by 0.50% against the USD tracking NK tensions;
it’s also being affected by Samsung, which constitutes almost 20% of the
index; Samsung fell by 1.8% today along with some other blue chips;
although a weak Won may be a blessing in disguise also for the export
heavy SK market.
Gold is up by around 0.55% tracking a weak USD and NK related safe
heaven flows; it’s also being seen as an inflation hedge as wage
inflation/CPI may be slowly making its ground in US/EU and even in
Japan. Technically, now sustaining above 1275 area, Gold may rally
further for 1295-1310 zone; near term positional support may be now
around 1245.
A weak EU market tracking NK political jitters and mixed earnings may
have also affected the Indian market sentiment in the closing session
and it closed almost at the low of the day.
