The expectation that the U.S. central bank would cut interest rates was tempered by the rebound of U.S. Treasury yields and the rise in the dollar index. Market participants awaited for the U.S. Fed minutes for further cues. Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 lost 0.75% and 0.69% to close at 71,356.60 and 21,517.35 respectively.

    Intermittent buying attempts were visible throughout the day, but they weakened in the second half, ending up with a close near 21500. The day thus having played out in line with our expectations of bearish bias persisting as long as below 21693 region, we find no reason to take our eyes off the 21420/370 objectives set at the start of the week. However, the 12d EMA at 21485 does present Nifty with an opportunity to swing higher, prompting us to shift the upside marker to 21580, in which case, short covering may be attempted.

     Stock Market Live Today: Pre-market views by Avdhut Bagkar of StoxBox.

    The US market fell overnight to extend declines from the previous session as the latest Fed meeting minutes shed little light on when rate cuts might begin. US job openings eased in November to the lowest level since early 2021. Fewer workers voluntarily quit their positions, and the number of hires fell, adding to evidence of cooling labour demand. Meantime, the ISM’s US manufacturing gauge remained stuck in contraction territory for the 14th month at the end of 2023, restrained by weaker orders. Asian markets followed Wall Street lower this morning after the Fed signalled prolonger higher interest rates. The Indian market may open on a cautious note Thursday in the wake of weak global cues and a sharp overnight rebound in oil prices after four consecutive sessions of losses. With festival demand waning, the manufacturing sector slowed down in December, Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) dropping to an 18-month low of 54.9 in December as against 56 in November. However, the sector is still in expansion mode.

    The 50 index witnessed a flattish opening, however, it succumbed to selling pressure immediately and continued its downward trajectory throughout the trading session. This was the second straight session of selling and with this the index added another distribution day in succession. Going forward, the index is anticipated to attract bullish strength on reclaiming the pivotal resistance near 21590.

    Stock Market Live Today: OPENING BELL: Sensex, Nifty start positively amid global variance, Asian stocks signal pressure

    The Indian benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty, commenced Thursday’s session with a positive bias despite varied global cues. The 30-share BSE Sensex surged by 261.83 points to 71,618.43 in early trade, while the NSE Nifty saw an increase of 55.10 points, reaching 21,572.45. 

    Asian stocks are in red in early Thursday deals, signalling domestic markets may remain under pressure. Market experts believe the correction phase will continue in domestic markets due to institutions’ lack of follow-up buying. On Wednesday, both FPIs and domestic institutions remained sellers.

    According to analysts, the market currently lacks fresh triggers to go up, so investors resort to profit-taking, which is good for overall market sentiment. The focus now shifts to the upcoming result season, said experts.

    In a market outlook for 2024, SBI Funds Management said, putting behind the tepid growth seen in Nifty earnings in the pre-Covid period, FY23 saw an 11.5 per cent earnings growth (adjusted for one time) and the expectation for FY 24 and FY25 remains very strong. At the beginning of FY23, earnings growth was expected at 11.9 per cent and has subsequently improved to 14.5 per cent. The 3-year CAGR between FY22 and FY25 stands at 15 per cent, underscoring the strong underlying growth momentum. The note from the fund house said that H1-FY24 had a very strong YoY growth of 27.5 per cent in Nifty earnings.

    Growth in the consumer-facing names has been very strong as margins have been robust on the back of lower input costs and good pricing power. IT earnings have been weak on the back of poor demand conditions. The materials sector has seen price corrections, which has impacted earnings. The strong H1 performance implies a modest required run rate of around 12 per cent in the second half to maintain current FY24 growth expectations.

    “Expectations are strong in sectors like Consumer Discretionary (primarily Auto), Healthcare and Materials,” SBI Funds Management said.

    According to Ajit Mishra, SVP - Technical Research, Religare Broking, it is a healthy correction so far despite the underperformance of two key sectors, viz. banking & IT, and participants should focus largely on buying opportunities on dips till Nifty holds the 21,200 level. “Defensive viz. pharma and FMCG are attracting noticeable interest on the expected lines while others are contributing on a rotational basis. Traders should align their positions accordingly but refrain from aggressive longs,” he added.

    Commodities Market Live Today: Palm rebounds on strong India demand, higher crude prices

    Malaysian palm oil futures rose on Thursday after a four-session losing streak, underpinned by robust demand from key buyer India and higher crude oil prices. The benchmark palm oil contract for March delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange rose 21 ringgit, or 0.6%, to 3,644 ringgit ($785.34) a metric ton in morning trade.

    FUNDAMENTALS 

    India’s palm oil imports rose in December to their highest in four months as purchases of refined palmolein surged because of competitive prices, five dealers told Reuters on Wednesday. 

    Oil prices rose in early trade on Thursday, extending the previous day’s sharp gains on concerns about Middle Eastern supply following disruptions at a field in Libya and heightened tension around the Israel-Gaza war.

    Stock Recommendations: Emkay Global: IndiGo (InterGlobe Aviation)

    Robust Q3 on the cards for Indigo, supported by better load factors and strong yields. We estimate yields to jump up 15% QoQ to Rs5.1, besides a 9% hike in fuel cost/ASK, driven by rise in ATF prices. PLFs would also be seasonally strong, at ~87%, as ASK/RPK rise 25%/28% YoY (a 2%/6% QoQ rise) to 36.0/31.3bn. We estimate PBT/ASK to come in at Rs0.44, with net income at Rs15.8bn, for Q3FY24 (up 12% YoY)

    Stock Market Live Today: Emkay Global: Q3FY24 Preview: Oil sector earnings down QoQ, gas range-bound; 

    OMCs’ earnings to decline due to lower GRMs & marketing margins, inventory losses, but should be in the black. Diesel marketing margins fell to negative ~Rs0.5/ltr, while petrol margins improved 20% to Rs6.8/ltr in Q3FY24. LPG margins also turned negative, at ~Rs60/cyl. Brent averaged at ~USD84/bbl in Q3FY24, down 3% QoQ, closing ~USD19/bbl lower at ~USD78/bbl between the two quarter ends, thereby resulting in refining inventory losses of USD2.5-3/bbl for OMCs. Benchmark GRMs also slumped, to USD5-6/bbl from USD9-10/bbl QoQ, due to a correction in distillate spreads. Russian crude discounts shrank, while Middle-East OSPs were slightly higher. We expect OMCs to record 70-80% decline in EBITDA QoQ. Q3FY24E PAT for IOCL is estimated at Rs26bn, while BPCL/HPCL would see PAT of Rs6/2bn, respectively

    Stock Recommendations: Motilal Oswal: SOBHA – TOP PICK 2024: Aiming for higher scale with strong balance sheet

    (SOBHA IN, Mkt Cap USD1.3b, CMP INR1120, TARGET INR1400, 25% Upside, Buy)

    Targeting sustainable growth with healthy cash flows and profitability

    After underperforming its listed peers on pre-sales growth over FY21-23, we believe SOBHA is set to outperform in terms of growth given its focus on unlocking its vast land reserve and exploring external growth opportunities through its healthy balance sheet. The outperformance is also expected to be driven by improvements in profitability. Further, visibility in the monetization of some of its large land parcels in Bengaluru will lead to a re-rating in its implied land valuation. SOBHA is our top idea for CY24 with a revised TP to INR1,400, 25% upside potential.

    Key risks to our target price include (a) slowdown in residential absorption, (b) delay in monetization of large land parcels, and (c) inability to sign BD deals

    Stock Market Live Today: Asian markets decline as US stocks tumble on Fed’s prolonged rate outlook

    Asian markets started with declines after US stocks slumped post the Federal Reserve meeting minutes signaling prolonged higher interest rates. Japan’s Nikkei dropped by 1.59% to 32,931.96, with the Topix down by 0.36% at 2,357.97. South Korea’s KOSPI fell by 0.45% to 2,595.69, while Australian shares decreased by 0.39% to 7,493.80. In contrast, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index gained 0.16% at 16,673.40.

    The Fed’s December meeting revealed rising confidence in controlling inflation but didn’t offer specifics on potential interest rate adjustments. On the prior day, the S&P 500 closed down by 0.8%, Nasdaq Composite by 1.18%, and Dow Jones Industrial Average by 0.76%.

    Stock Market Live Updates: Wall Street notches second lower finish as 2024 starts with profit-taking

    U.S. stock indexes ended the second session of the year down again in extended profit-taking on Wednesday after a strong finish to 2023, with minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December meeting failing to shake off the funk hanging over markets. 

    It was the first time the benchmark S&P 500 index has started the year with two straight declines since it kicked off 2015 with a three-session skid. It is also its worst two-day result, on a percentage basis, since late-October.

    The decline contrasts with the blistering run for all three major Wall Street benchmarks in the final two months of the year. The S&P 500 came within striking distance of its all-time closing high last week as signs of cooling inflation spurred investors to bet on an aggressive rate-cutting schedule.

    However, investors have been cautious so far in 2024, wary of the U.S. central bank’s expected pivot to rate cuts this year and how quickly these might be implemented. While the Fed is widely expected to keep rates on hold in January, traders have priced in a 67% chance of a 25 basis point rate cut in March, as per CMEGroup’s FedWatch tool.

    The Fed minutes released on Wednesday offered new insight, with policymakers appearing increasingly convinced that inflation was coming under control, with “upside risks” diminished and growing concern about the damage that “overly restrictive” monetary policy might do to the economy.

    Little light was shed on when rate cuts might commence though.

    The S&P 500 lost 38.02 points, or 0.8%, to end at 4,704.81 points, while the Nasdaq Composite lost 173.73 points, or 1.18%, to 14,592.21. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 284.85 points, or 0.76%, to 37,430.19. - Reuters
