Markets hit fresh record highs on Friday
Friday turned out to be a fabulous day of trade for Indian equity benchmarks where Nifty and Sensex once again scaled fresh record highs and ended above 10,450 and 33,600 levels, respectively. Despite some initial volatility, markets gained momentum and traded jubilantly throughout the session, as sentiments remained up-beat with the government’s statement that it has approved foreign direct investment (FDI) proposals worth Rs 24.56 crore, including one from Sterling Commerce Solutions India. Markets extended their northward journey mainly after the Nikkei India Services Purchasing Managers’ Index rose to 51.7 in October from September’s 50.7 due to greater inflows of new business. The report enlightened that service providers retained an optimistic outlook regarding business activity over the coming 12 months, while the labor market was further reinforced as firms raised their payroll numbers over the month.
Traders also took some comfort with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement that starting business in India is easier than ever before as procedures have been simplified, archaic laws repealed and compliance requirements reduced. Meanwhile, responsible or sustainable investment in India is at a niche stage as assets deployed under this strategy amount to nearly $31 billion, while globally it stood at a whopping $22.89 trillion. Adding to the optimism, former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan termed the government’s announcement to infuse Rs 2.11 lakh crore in PSU banks as good news saying it is important for banks to have capital for lending going forward. He added that public sector banking system is a big part of Indian system and it is about 70%. Investors took note of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) statement that corporate borrowers who fail to get a Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) number from banks won’t be given credit. The schedule for getting the LEI number is spread out till December 2019 and depends on exposure.
Positive opening in European counters too aided sentiments with CAC, DAX and FTSE trading in green in early deals, as investors monitored a fresh batch of corporate earnings. Asian markets ended mostly in green, as sentiments remained up-beat with the release of US tax reform bill as well as the announcement of Jerome Powell as the next Federal Reserve Chair.
Back home, auto stocks remained in top gear on report that domestic commercial vehicle sales seems to be back on track since July 2017, driven by pent-up demand post-GST, healthy replacement-led demand, especially in the tractor trailer segment owing to stricter implementation of CMVR regulations and pick-up in construction and mining activity, driving demand for tipper trucks. Aviation stocks flies higher with report that the government is developing a comprehensive 25-year master plan for airports in the country to keep pace with air traffic growth. Select stocks from IT space remained on buyers’ radar with Nasscom’s president R Chandrashekhar’s statement that India’s IT industry could see an upturn next year as the process of investments in technology, particularly in the United States, has started to gather momentum.
