Markets extend winning for fifth straight session
Indian equity benchmarks extended their gaining streak for fifth straight day and settled with a gain of around one third of a percent amid sanguine global cues. Markets traded in fine fettle throughout the session, though markets ended off day highs on late hour profit booking. Sentiments remained up-beat since beginning of the trade with traders taking support with international rating agency Moody’s report which expecting growth to revive next year, has said a 7.6% GDP expansion can result in corporates reporting a pre-tax profit growth of 5-6% over the next 12-18 months. The rating agency over the weekend had revised upwards sovereign ratings to Baa2 after almost 14 years. According to the rating agency, growth will “rebound strongly in 2018 because the supply chain disruptions of 2017 will end soon”. Some support also came with report that investors pumped over Rs 51,000 crore into various mutual fund schemes in October after pulling out more than Rs 16,000 crore in the preceding month.
Market participants also took some encouragement with chief economic adviser Arvind Subramanian hinting that the government may combine the 12% and 18% slabs under the goods and services tax (GST) into one in the near future and reserve the 28% rate only for demerit goods. Investors took note that the government has moved a notch closer to achieving its disinvestment target through minority stake sales in state-run companies as it has garnered around Rs 14,500 crore through its latest offering - the Bharat-22 Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). The Bharat-22 ETF, which comprises shares of 22 firms, was oversubscribed four times and saw bids of nearly Rs 32,000 crore coming in, with foreign institutional investors (FII) putting in nearly one-third of the amount bid.
Firm trade in European markets too aided sentiments with CAC, DAX and FTSE trading in green and the euro hit an eight-day low against sterling, with investors’ sentiments curbed by a political impasse in Germany. Britain’s budget gap unexpectedly widened last month, underscoring finance minister Philip Hammond’s challenge as he juggles calls for more spending in his budget on Wednesday with the prospect of weaker economic growth ahead. Asian markets ended mostly in green, supported by over half a percent gain in Nikkei, as the greenback remained supported by higher US bond yields.
Back home, traders booked some of their profit at higher levels in last leg of trade which pulled markets down from day’s high. On the sectoral front, select consumer durables stocks were buzzing in today’s trade on reports that the government may soon cut rates on consumer durables such as refrigerators and washing machines, which are currently in the 28% tax bracket. The move is likely to be a significant boost for the sector plagued by excess capacity and slowdown. The economy will get a fillip from the likely consumption boost and better compliance in this key sector. Shares of logistics companies remained on buyers’ radar after the government given infrastructure status to logistics sector, covering cold chain and warehousing facilities, a move that is likely to attract more funding at competitive rates for these segments. However, Realty stocks edged lower despite Fitch Ratings in its latest report forecasted a stable outlook for the Indian real estate. The rating agency also expects unsold inventory to fall from peak level in 2018.
