India, Pak, Iran to discuss pipeline in July

Officials from India, Pakistan and Iran will meet next month to discuss construction of the much-delayed US$7.6bn pipeline to transport natural gas from Iran to the sub-continent, Petroleum Secretary M.S. Srinivasan said. Iran and India are yet to agree on the delivery point of the natural gas, Srinivasan told reporters in New Delhi. India wants Iran to deliver gas at the border it shares with Pakistan, he said, adding that Pakistan has said it has no problem with India's stand. The three countries want to build 2,100-kilometer long natural gas pipeline by December 2012 after a decade of delays.

The highest contribution has come from ONGC followed by SBI and SAIL indicating that the growth is visible in almost all sectors of economy.

Earlier, HDFC Bank, J&K Bank and Yes Bank had increased their PLRs following the RBI's decision to raise the repo rate by 25 bps on June 11.

Govt unveils new potash, phosphate policy
The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) considered and approved the proposal of the Department of Fertilizers (DOF) relating to the Concession Scheme on de-controlled P&K fertilizers. The new policy is effective April 1. The scheme is substantially based on the recommendations of the Tariff Commission and provides a realistic framework for computing input cost, conversion and handling. It will encourage the P&K fertilizer industry to meet the long term needs of the agriculture sector. Indigenous DAP has been brought at par with imported DAP for the purposes of calculation of concession. Providing concession to indigenous DAP on the basis of Import Parity Price (IPP) will ensure competitiveness and provide a rational basis for payment of concession.

Govt asks RIL to prioritize gas supply

The Government chalked out an order of priority which Reliance Industries Ltd. (RIL) should adhere to while pumping natural gas from KG D6 block in the Krishna Godavari basin, off the east coast. RIL is expected to commence production from September. It will initially be about 25 mmscmd, and is expected to gradually increase to 40 mmscmd by March 2009. The EGoM has decided that the existing gas based urea plants, which are now getting gas below their full requirement, should be supplied gas so as to enable full capacity utilization. A maximum quantity of 3 mmscmd should be supplied to existing gas based LPG plants. Up to 18 mmscmd natural gas should be supplied to power plants.

Fed keeps rates unchanged

No surprises here. For the first time in the last nine months, the Federal Reserve did not cut interest rates, as its focus shifts to managing inflation expectations from boosting economic growth. At the end of its two-day policy meeting on June 26, the Fed left its benchmark fed funds rate unchanged. Mounting inflation worries prompted the US central bank to halt its aggressive rate-cutting campaign that began in September 2007.

Between last September and April this year, the Fed cut short-term interest rates by 3.25% to just 2% in an effort to prevent the world's biggest economy from sliding into a recession. But, with chances of a recession receding somewhat, and commodity prices (especially that of crude oil) shooting through the roof, the Fed has had to change its stance, like most central banks around the world. In fact, Dallas Fed chief Richard Fisher voted for a rate hike.

The Fed sharpened its focus on inflation, saying that the risks to the US economy from upward pressure on prices have increased. "The upside risks to inflation and inflation expectations have increased," the FOMC said. At the same time, downside risks to growth appear to have diminished somewhat," it added. However, the Fed did not drop any hints as to when rates will start rising again if inflationary pressures continue to mount. Some economists believe there will be a monetary tightening before the end of the year, while others see no move until next spring, after this November's presidential elections.

European economy slows in May-June

Economic conditions in Europe slowed further in the last two months, according to three closely watched reports. German business confidence fell to the lowest level in more than two years in June on the back of rising crude oil prices and the prospect of higher interest rates. Rising prices are eroding consumer spending while a stronger euro is hurting exports. Separately, a preliminary purchasing managers index (PMI) for the manufacturing and service sectors across the 15-nation eurozone pointed to a contraction in activity in June, according to media reports. Also, business and consumer confidence in the 15 countries that use the euro weakened significantly in June as the European Central Bank prepared to raise its key interest rate.

Japanese economy weakens further

Japan's household spending slumped in May, the ratio of jobs available fell to a three-year low and the inflation rate almost doubled, with a measure of core prices suffering its biggest jump since 1998. Household spending declined 3.2%, the most since September 2006, the statistics bureau said. Core consumer prices, which exclude fruit, fish and vegetables, rose 1.5% from a year earlier after climbing 0.9% in April. Stocks slid to a two-month low on concern that soaring energy costs are sapping global demand for Japanese products. Bonds gained because the risk of a recession may prevent the Bank of Japan (BOJ) from raising its key interest rate from 0.5% even as inflation accelerates. The government downgraded its assessment of industrial production despite output growing for the first time in three months.



Barclays to raise US$8.8bn via share sale

Barclays said it plans to raise around £4.5bn (US$8.85bn) through a private placement of shares to three investors, as it attempts to shore up its capital base in the wake of losses linked to the sub-prime meltdown in the US. Qatar Investment Authority (£1.76bn), Challenger (£533mn), and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp (£500mn) will become new shareholders of Barclays. Existing shareholders China Development Bank and Temasek will also participate in the share sale, as will other institutional shareholders and investors. The share issue will enable Barclays to run capital ratios ahead of its long-standing targets. The Board estimates that, taking into account the proceeds of the share sale, Barclays would have reported a tier one ratio of 8.8% and an equity tier one ratio of 6.3% as at Dec. 2007.

Global HNI wealth up 9.4% yoy


The combined wealth of the world’s high net worth individuals (HNIs ) increased 9.4% to US$40.7 trillion in 2007, according to the 12th annual World Wealth report, released by Merrill Lynch and Capgemini. The increase was largely driven by market capitalization growth in emerging economies. India was the world’s fastest-growing HNI market with a 22.7 % gain to 123,000, followed by China which saw a 20.3 % increase to 415,000.

The number of HNWIs in the world rose 6% in 2007 to 10.1mn, while the number of ultra high net worth individuals (Ultra-HNWIs ) increased by 8.8 %. For the first time in the history of the Report, the average assets held by HNWIs exceeded US$4 million.

In Asia Pacific, the HNWI population rose 8.7% from a year earlier to 2.8mn. The region’s HNWIs had combined wealth of US$9.5 trillion, an increase of 12.5 %.

Asia was home to some of the world’s fastest-growing markets by HNWI population, taking five spots out of the global top 10 for the third consecutive year. China also surpassed France as the fifth-largest HNWI population in the world. Also included in the world’s fastest-growing markets were South Korea, where the HNWI population increased 18.9 %, Indonesia at 16.8 % and Singapore at 15.3 %.

In India, the number of HNWIs rose 22.7 % during the year to 123,000. The growth was primarily led by market capitalization and real GDP growth.

"In India, wealth is being created at an unprecedented rate. We are in the midst of a multi-year growth trajectory in terms of the number of HNWIs as also their combined wealth," said Pradeep Dokania, head of Global Private Client at DSP Merrill Lynch Limited. "Notwithstanding the recent dislocation in global markets, the robust economies in Asia, as well as in India, are increasingly being driven by the domestic consumption story and continue to spur wealth creation in the region."

Crude on boil again...nears U$142/bbl


Crude oil prices accelerated in the last two days of the week, touching a new all-time high of nearly US$142 per barrel in electronic trading. The August light crude contract traded as high as US$141.71 per barrel on Friday. It closed at a record US$139.64 in New York on Thursday. Prices jumped after OPEC president warned of higher oil prices, the dollar declined and Libya threatened reduction in crude output.

OPEC president Chakib Khelil, who is also Algeria's Energy Minister, said oil prices could jump as high as US $150 to US $170 dollars a barrel this summer. However, he thinks crude will fall short of US $200 a barrel. At a meeting in Paris, Khelil said a further fall of 1-2% in the dollar versus the euro could add another US $8 to oil prices. He cited the weakness of the greenback as a major cause of spiking oil prices.

Also, Libya threatened to cut oil output because of a US threat to its assets and an assumption that the oil market is oversupplied, according to Bloomberg. A US law allows terror victims to seize assets of foreign governments as compensation, the report said.

US dollar fell against most of its major rivals after the Federal Reserve held its benchmark short-term rate steady at 2%. The central bank sharpened its focus on inflation, saying that the risks posed to the economy by rising prices have increased. Oil may rise further if the ECB boosts rates on July 3, further weakening the US dollar. ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said on June 25 that policy makers may increase rates by 25 bps next month to contain inflation.

Crude continues to play spoilsport. The coming week may see it flirt with the US$150 levels after which it could cool for some time. Over the weekend, more noises will be made regarding the ruling government’s plan of action regarding the nuclear deal. The global cues will direct the turn of events.

With most sectors and stocks at the receiving end, select buying will set in depending more on the news flow. While FMCG and pharma remain the defensive bets, some beaten down large caps may be quick to rebound. Except for wild swings due to sector shifts by institutions, the week is likely to see the indices moving in a range.

The advance tax numbers are getting deceptive. The actual results will start flowing in only the following week. Till then selectively pick the large caps. There is no need to buy in a hurry as yet

Repo rate, CRR hiked to check inflation


In a somewhat surprise move, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) dealt a double blow to the markets in the continued fight against inflation. The central bank increased the repurchase rate (repo rate) and the CRR by 50 basis points each. While the repo rate was hiked to 8.5% with immediate affect, the CRR will go up in two stages - on July 5 (to 8.5%) and on July 19 (to 8.75%).

Expect lending rates on everything from home loans to auto, consumer and corporate loans to increase. Quite a few banks, including SBI, raised their Prime Lending Rates (PLR) by 50 bps. Some banks also increased their deposit rates, which will still be in the negative zone with inflation soaring to a fresh 13-year high of 11.42%. Other banks and housing finance companies are likely to take a call on rates over the next few days.

As far as markets are concerned, the move was a bit unexpected, as only on Monday the RBI Governor Y.V. Reddy had sought to allay fears of a swift reaction from the central bank in the wake of the steep increase in inflation. He even hinted that economic growth may not be hit afterall due to the series of monetary tightening measures. So, a sudden turnaround in the RBI's stand did smack of some kind of political pressure from North Block.

The stock market continued its downward spiral while bond prices tumbled, with their corresponding yields rising sharply. Shares in the rate-sensitive sectors like banking, real estate and auto were the hardest hit. Stocks in capital goods, construction, cement, retail and consumer-oriented sectors also came under pressure amid concerns over further slowdown in the economy. The rupee touched a three-week high, but retreated after crude oil nearly breached US$142 a barrel.

Market may remain weak


The outlook for the market remains grim for the near term as steaming inflation, record high global crude oil prices and high interest rates threaten the pace of growth in the world's second fastest expanding major economy, driving investors to the sideline or to exit.

The wholesale price index rose 11.42% in 12 months to 14 June 2008, above the previous week's annual rise of 11.05%, government data released on Friday, 27 June 2008, showed. Inflation for the year through 19 April 2008 was revised upwards to 8.23% from 7.57%.

To tame inflationary pressures, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on 24 June 2008, raised its key lending rate viz. the repo rate by 50 basis points to 8.5% with immediate effect, its highest since March 2002 and the second hike this month. The RBI had earlier on 11 June 2008, raised the repo rate, by 25 basis points to 8%.

The RBI also increased the cash reserve ratio, the ratio of deposits banks must keep with it, to 8.75% from 8.25% in two 25-basis-point stages on 5 July 2008 and 19 July 2008.

Foreign investors, who usually set the trend for the market, have been withdrawing relentlessly this year. FIIs dumped shares worth Rs 9349.60 crore in the month of June 2008 (till 26 June 2008). FII outflow in calendar year 2008 totaled Rs 24,719.10 crore (till 26 June 2008).

Political factors will also weigh on the market due to the ongoing confrontation between the government and Left parties over the Indo-US nuclear deal. The UPA-Left coordination committee on Indo-US nuclear deal on 25 June 2008 decided to meet again later. Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee said the committee completed its discussions on all aspects of the nuclear deal. The next meeting of the committee will finalise its findings.

The Left parties have already made it clear that they will withdraw their support to the government if it moves ahead with the nuclear deal. Left parties are opposing the deal saying it undermines India's independent foreign policy and nuclear weapons program.

With inflation expected to remain in double-digits in the coming months, it would be suicidal for the ruling coalition to precipitate a political crisis and go for early elections, which are due by May next year.

Crude hit a record of $141.71 on Friday, 27 June 2008 after Opec President, Chakib Khelil predicted that the oil prices could rise to $150-170 a barrel in the next 3-4 months. Rising crude oil remains a major worry as India imports close to 70% of its crude requirements.

Inflation worries, oil price surge rattle bourses

Inflation based on the wholesale price index stood at 11.42% for the week ended 14 June 2008, the highest reading in more than 13 years.

Nightmare at US Markets


The Dow falls to a new 52 week low as crude soars to a new high and Goldman Sachs adds companies to sell list

US Market registered steep losses today, Thursday, 26 June, 2008 and headed for the worst June performance in almost seventy eight years. Crude prices soaring by more than $5 at one go and analyst downgrade on General Motors was the main reasons behind today’s steep losses. Goldman Sachs cut its overall rating on U.S. brokerages to Neutral from Attractive thereby taking a big toll on the overall financial sector. All ten economic sectors posted a loss.

The Dow Jones industrial Average ended the day with a huge loss of 358.4 points at 11,453.42. The Nasdaq Composite Index, finished lower by 79.89 points at 2,321.37. S&P 500 finished lower by 38.82 points at 1,283.15. Dow fell to a new 52 week low. All the thirty Dow stocks ended in the red headed by GM which skidded by more than 10%.

Goldman Sachs added a couple of companies to its conviction sell list. This spurred a major sell-off in Wall Street today. The firm lowered its rating on the broker sector and indicated Citigroup might incur additional write-downs and may also raise more capital. It also hinted that Merrill Lynch might raise additional capital. Goldman also cut estimates for Dow Jones Industrials component General Motors.

Dow component GE also came under severe pressure today on reports that the company is reportedly having difficulty finding a buyer for its credit card business.

In terms of economic data, the final GDP reading for the first quarter indicated the economy grew at 1%, on par with expectations and up slightly from the previous reading. Personal consumption expenditures were revised upward to 1.1%, while the GDP price index came in at 2.7%.

Also, jobless claims for the week ending 21 June exceeded expectations, totaling 384,000, though they were unchanged from the prior week. In the housing arena, existing home sales rose 2% m-o-m to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.99 million, which was better than the expected increase of 1.2%.

Technology sector was hammered today after Research In Motion fell more than 13% after the company disappointed investors by reporting earnings per share results that were a penny shy of the quarterly consensus estimate. Oracle, too, disappointed its investors with an underwhelming forecast.

Crude futures rose by more than $5 at one shot today. A host of factors contributed to this sudden rise. First and foremost, the dollar weakened today. Then, Libya threatened to cut output and also OPEC's president said prices may reach $170 by the summer. Crude-oil futures for light sweet crude for August delivery today closed at $139.64/barrel (higher by $5.09/barrel or 3.8%) on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It traded as high as $140.06 during intra day trading. This was an all time new closing price for crude.

It was reported today that Libya may curb output because of a U.S. law that allows terror victims to seize assets of foreign governments as compensation. OPEC President Chakib Khelil was also reported to have said that oil may surge as high as $170 in near months on a European interest rate rise.

Volume on the New York Stock Exchange topped 1.5 billion, and declining stocks outdid those advancing more than 5 to 1. On the Nasdaq, nearly 998 million shares traded, and decliners raced beyond advancers 11 to 3.

Economic data will be the area of focus tomorrow, with the release of the May personal income and spending report.

Pre Session Commentary - June 27 2008


The Indian Market is expected to have negative opening on the back of weak global cues as US markets ended on back foot and Asian markets are trading in deep red. On Thursday, the Indian market closed in green due to short covering of the ahead of the expiry of the June derivatives contract that led the buying support in key indices. The market opened on upbeat note tracking the favoring cues from the global markets as the US Federal Reserve’s decision on Wednesday to keep the interest rates unchanged at 2%, which was according to the expectation. Further, the market was not able to sustain the same momentum and lost its gains. But selective buying at the final hours led the market close in positive territory. From the sectoral front, the oil and gas and metal stocks were in limelight as most buying was witnessed from these baskets. The BSE Sensex closed higher by 201.75 points at 14,421.82 and NSE Nifty ended up by 63.2 points at 4,315.85. We expect that market may decline during the trading session and inflation number which is due out to be today will give further direction to the market.

US markets closed lower on Thursday as Oil prices touched above $ 140 a barrel also contributed to the negative sentiment. Also the credit-market write downs and a slowing economy threatened to extend the longest slump in quarterly profits since 2002 adds to the sentiments.

Sterlite industries declined (1.48%).

Today the major stock markets in Asia are trading in red shares plunged on Wall Street and high inflation worries. Hang Seng index is trading lower by 592.71 points at 21,862.96 along with Taiwan Weighted trading down by 311.64 points at 7,500.16 and Japan’s Nikkei trading at 13,515.12 dropped by 307.20 points.

Of depressions and Inflation!


Concern should drive us into action and not into depression.

The sea of red across most global markets would sure drive Indian investors into depression. The Dow fell to its worst June since the Great Depression. Most market participants would just be watching the screen for the initial minutes till some stability returns. The daredevils may hope to make some quick bucks in the melee. (We can’t advise you to take such risks). Yet, there are those who would like to invest and these are times you can pick up small quantities of once upon a time very large cap stocks. Those who have the money, it would be time for action rather than depression.

But things are definitely not getting any better on the global or domestic front. Sonia Gandhi may have given her go ahead to the PM for pushing ahead with the nuke deal. But nobody could care about it today. After the initial choppiness, market will spare a thought for the inflation numbers which will officially be announced around noon. No great expectations of a cool down here. In fact it could only get worse for the coming weeks.

Crude oil prices hit a record high of US$140.39 in a rally after OPEC president in a comment said that prices could rise as high as $170/bbl in the coming months. A weaker dollar also helped fuel the rally.

Asian markets have slipped sharply this morning, following US markets overnight tumble that reflected rising worries over spiraling inflation. This would be Asian markets’ worst first half of the year since 1992. Japan's Nikkei 225 Stock Average slipped 2.22% to 13,515.12, while Hang Seng index dropped 2.2%.

The US Dow Jones industrial average fell to a 21-month low on back of record rise in crude oil prices. Sentiments were further dampened after Goldman Sachs' reports painted a gloomy picture for the financial sector.

In Europe, heavyweights fell to their lowest close since late March, driven by a sharp turn down in global financial shares. Banking stocks were badly battered turning out to be the worst performers on the FTSE 100 index. HSBC, Standard Chartered and Royal Bank of Scotland all fell between 4 to 7%.

The FTSE 100 closed at 5,518.2 losing 147.90 points or 2.61%, making this its lowest close since March 20, 2008, and its biggest one-day fall in over a month.

Even the Australian stocks slumped in early trading Friday following a sharp cut on Wall Street. Banking stocks were hit the hardest. Mining giants BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto fell about 3% each. The S&P/ASX 200 index fell 82 points or 1.55% to close at 5,225.

China's Shanghai Composite plunged 3.2% to 2,809.31 in the early minutes, and Singapore's Straits Times Index gave up 1.8% to 2,927.51. Taiwan's Weighted Index slumped 3.5% to 7,539.28.

In Asian currency trading, the U.S. dollar strengthened to 106.94 yen from 107.87 yen late on Thursday.

Back to the Indian corporate events, Jet Airways could be under further pressure following reports that it may post Rs20bn loss in two years.

Most leading banks have hiked PLR. Except for bargain hunting at lower levels, pressure would remain on bank stocks. SBI hiked its PLR to 12.75% effective from June 27, 2008. Union Bank raised its PLR to 13.25% effective from July 1, 2008.

Meanwhile, Axis Bank has acquired 2.5% stake in HCC arm Lavasa for Rs2.5bn.
