08/10/26, market intraday news

The benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty declined on Thursday as rising crude oil prices, foreign fund outflows and growing prospects of tighter domestic and global monetary conditions for longer weighed on investor sentiment.

At around 11:30 am, the Sensex was down 772.30 points, or 1.06 percent at 71,866.40, while the broader Nifty declined to 22,337.30, down 265.75 points or 1.18 percent.

The Nifty and Sensex snapped a two-session winning run in the previous session after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised its benchmark repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.50 percent, marking the first hike in nearly four years amid mounting inflation and strong economic growth.

All major Nifty sectoral indices declined, barring IT and consumer durables. The broader Nifty Smallcap 100 and Nifty Midcap 100 dropped up to 1 percent.

Key factors behind market decline

1) Rise in crude prices: Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, traded 2.02 percent higher at USD 102.2 per barrel amid persistent worries over West Asia supplies, driven by increased attacks on shipping in the Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz.
2) FII selling: Persistent foreign selling remained a concern. Foreign institutional investors sold Indian equities worth more than Rs 6,100 crore on Wednesday.

3) RBI rate hike: The Reserve Bank of India raised its benchmark repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.50 percent on Wednesday, its first hike in nearly four years, while signalling that rate cuts are off the table in the near term and that further hikes could follow amid rising inflation, a weak rupee and high crude oil prices.
The six-member Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the RBI voted unanimously to raise the repo rate and sprang a surprise with a shift in policy stance to "calibrated tightening" from "neutral".
"The key overhang is no longer the RBI's rate increase alone, but the growing prospect of tighter domestic and global monetary conditions persisting for longer, potentially keeping pressure on risk appetite and foreign flows. The RBI's shift to calibrated tightening, followed by Federal Reserve minutes indicating another US rate increase may be required this year, could limit risk appetite," Hariselvan Radhakrishnan, Founder & CEO of HST Wealth, a research analyst firm, said.
4) Weak global cues: In Asian markets, South Korea's Kospi, Japan's Nikkei 225 index, Shanghai's SSE Composite index and Hang Seng index quoted lower. US markets ended lower on Wednesday. Wall Street futures also traded lower, indicating a weak start to US equities.
"The outlook for Indian equities remains cautious after the RBI raised its repo rate to 5.50 percent, tightening domestic financial conditions at a time when global markets are already contending with elevated Treasury yields and geopolitical uncertainty. Tighter domestic financial conditions and a fragile global risk backdrop could keep investors defensive," Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money, an online trading and wealth-tech firm, said.
Among stocks, Paytm and One Mobikwik tumbled 7 percent each, while Pine Labs fell 3.1 percent after CNBC-TV18 reported that the planned October 15 rollout of merchant fees on certain digital-payment transactions could be delayed by a few months, citing sources.
ITC fell 3 percent after about 4.4 million shares changed hands in 12 block deals at a discount of 0.6-3.1 per cent over the last close, according to data compiled by LSEG..
Technical Outlook
Anand James, Chief Market Strategist at Geojit Investments, said "Yesterday's multiple attacks at 22574 calls for an extended period of consolidation, before setting a direction. Though considerably weakened, the 23100-220 view is still in play, with downside marker at 22439."

Trade Cycles

The four important features of Trade Cycle are (i) Recovery, (ii) Boom, (iii) Recession, and (iv) Depression!

The trades cycle or business cycle are cyclical fluctuations of an economy. A full trade cycle has got four phases: (i) Recovery, (ii) Boom, (iii) Recession, and (iv) depression. The upward phase of a trade cycle or prosperity is divided into two stages—recovery and boom, and the downward phase of a trade cycle is also divided into two stages—recession and depression.

Phases of Trade Cycle:

The phases of trade cycle are explained with a diagram:

(1) Recovery:

In the early period of recovery, entrepreneurs increase the level of investment which in turn increases employment and income. Employment increases purchasing power and this leads to an increase in demand for consumer goods.

As a result, demand for goods will press upon their supply and it shall, thereby, lead to a rise in prices. The demand for consumer’s goods shall encourage the demand for producer’s goods.

The rise in prices shall depend upon the gestation period of investment. The longer the period of investment, the higher shall be the price rise. The rise of prices shall bring about a change in the distribution of income. Rent, wages, interest do not rise in the same proportion as prices.

Consequently, the margin of profit improves. The wholesale prices rise more than retail prices. The prices of raw materials rise more than the prices of semi-finished goods and the prices of semi-finished goods use more than the prices of finished goods.

(2) Boom:

The rate of investment increases still further. Owing to the spread of a wave of optimism in business, the level of production increases and the boom gathers momentum. More investment is possible only through credit creation. During a period of boom, the economy surpasses the level of full employment and enters a stage of over full employment.

(3) Recession:

The orders for raw materials are reduced on the onset of a recession. The rate of investment in producers’ goods industries and housing construction declines. Liquidity preference rises in society and owing to a contraction of money supply, the prices falls. A wave of pessimism spreads in business and those markets which were sometime before sellers markets become buyer’s markets now.

(4) Depression:

The main feature of a depression is a general fall in economic activity. Production, employment and income decline. The prices fall and the main factor responsible for it is, a fall in the purchasing power.

The distribution of national income changes. As the costs are rigid in nature, the margin of profit declines. Machines are not used to their full capacity in factories, because effective demand is much less. The prices of finished goods fall less than the prices of raw materials.

..BANKING TERMINOLOGY

There are various types of Banks: PSU Banks, Private Banks, Co-operative/Regional Banks, Small Finance Banks and Foreign Banks. When you deposit money in a bank, let's say the bank gives you an interest rate of 4%. But when the bank lends out this money, they lend it out at say, 12%. The difference of 8% in the above scenario is effectively the profit of the bank! The loans that do not pay interest for 90 days are known as Non-performing Assets. Banks have to provide for such bad loans. Structure of a Bank Asset for a Bank: The asset portion of a bank's capital includes cash, government securities, and interest-earning loans (e.g., mortgages, letters of credit, and inter-bank loans). Liabilities for a Bank: The bank's main liabilities are its capital (including cash reserves and, often, subordinated debt) and deposits. The latter may be from domestic or foreign sources (corporations and firms, private individuals, other banks, and even governments). Banks are required to maintain Liquidity with the Reserve Bank of India: SLR (Statutory Liquidity Ratio): It is the money a bank needs to preserve in the form of cash, gold or government Bonds before providing credit customers. This limitation is added by RBI on banks to make funds available to customers on-demand at your earliest convenience. Banks are required to maintain SLR at 18%. CRR (Cash Reserve Ratio): Banks are required to hold a certain proportion of their deposits in the form of cash. Banks don’t hold these as cash with themselves, but deposit such amounts with RBI / currency chests. CRR rate is at 4.5% currently. Repo Rate: The rate at which the RBI lends short-term money to the banks. The RBI through its Monetary Policy committee changes the repo rate to balance growth and Inflation. Reverse Repo rate: The rate at which banks park their short-term excess liquidity with the RBI. Now let us understand various terminologies for Banks Net Interest Income (NII): This is the spread the bank makes on its lending. It is calculated as Interest Income – Interest Expended Net Interest Margin (NIM): This is the spread the bank makes on its lending. It is the earning which is left after deducting the cost paid to depositors from its yields on Loans. This is denoted in % terms. The formula is Yield on Loans – Cost of funds Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR): The capital adequacy ratio (CAR) is a measure of a bank's available capital expressed as a percentage of a bank's risk-weighted credit exposures. Essentially, it is the Capital that is available to lend. Tier I Capital – In simple words this capital is freely available with the bank to lend out. Tier II Capital- This is the capital tied up somewhere and is less freely available to lend. In case of an adverse event, the bank can use this capital to lend. Under Basel III norms, a bank’s tier 1+tier 2 capital must be a minimum of 8% of its risk-weighted holdings. The minimum capital adequacy ratio, also including the capital conservation buffer, is 10.5%. Current Account Saving Account (CASA)- There is no interest paid on the Current Account and a small interest rate is paid on a savings account. The combination of both is called CASA which shows the liabilities of the bank on which it pays relatively less interest. Deposits: Bank deposits are a savings product that customers can use to hold an amount of money at a bank for a specified length of time. In return, the financial institution will pay the customer the relevant amount of interest, based on how much they choose to deposit and for how long. Now let us come to NPA. Gross NPA (GNPA): It is the total loans on which no payment has been paid for 90 days or more. GNPA % is usually shown in each Bank’s quarterly results. The percentage is basically the GNPA amount as a % of the total advances. Slippages: Slippages denote the fresh amount of loans that have turned bad in a year. The slippage ratio of a bank is calculated as Fresh accretion of NPAs during the year /Total standard assets at the beginning of the year multiplied by 100. Provisioning Coverage Ratio (PCR): This is the ratio of provisioning to GNPA and indicates the extent of funds a bank has kept aside to cover loan losses. For Instance, a company has GNPAs of Rs 100 and they have set aside 50 Rs, then the PCR is 50%. Net NPA (NNPA): The total figure left after deducting provisions made for bad loans from GNPA. (GNPA – Provisions+upgrades/writeoffs = NNPA) Special Mention Account (SMA) SMA-0 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 0 to 30 days. SMA-1 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 30-60 days. SMA-2 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 60-90 days
