Markets hit fresh record closing highs on RBI rate cut hopes
Indian equity benchmarks ended the splendid performance with a gain of over half a percent on Monday, settling at fresh all time closing high levels. Key gauges traded firmly throughout the session and ended above their crucial 10,050 (Nifty) and 32,500 (Sensex) levels amid rate cut optimism. Market participants expects the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to cut rates by 25 bps on falling inflation in the coming policy meet, which will start tomorrow. Meanwhile, ahead of the next monetary policy review, Reserve Bank Governor Urjit Patel on Friday called on Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and is believed to have discussed various macro-economic issues. Traders also took some encouragement with Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s statement, who underlining the government’s push on reforms has said that in the last three years, the prime minister has been forcing one or two important changes. India has to become a country where it is easy to do business and the businesses are done in the most ethical way.
Adding to the optimism, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the success of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Bill and said it has transformed the economy. Terming the GST as pro-poor and an example of cooperative federalism, he said the government’s effort is to ensure there is no extra burden on the poor. Markets extended their northward journey in second half as market participants got some boost on report that India’s exports of engineering goods to China saw a whopping 123 percent growth at $629 million during April-June this fiscal, driven by an upsurge in shipments of non-ferrous metals. The country’s shipments to China stood at $282 million in the April-June quarter of the previous fiscal.
Firm opening in European counters too aided sentiments, as Chinese manufacturing data boosted miners and investors focused on positive earnings news from Europe’s largest bank, HSBC. Asian markets closed mixed, as investors turned their attention to a raft of global economic data and earnings this week.
Back home, some support came with Moody’s report that India’s GDP growth will remain in the range of 6.5-7.5% over the next 12-18 months and GST will support the momentum for faster growth. Besides, global brokerage firm lowered its inflation forecast for 2017 to 3.1% from 3.6% earlier citing relatively benign outcomes of GST and monsoon. It, however, said headline inflation troughed in June and the trajectory is still that of a gradual rise in headline inflation.
