The RBI is likely to maintain a rate pause, citing easing inflation but volatility in food prices. Economic growth remains strong, supporting the RBI’s unchanged policy stance. Gold prices surged to a record high on Thursday, driven by expectations of interest rate cuts. Traders await US data and speeches from Fed officials. Stock-specific action is driven by encouraging Q4 business updates. Option activity at the 22,500 strike will provide cues about Nifty’s direction.

Stock Market Live Today: Opening Bell: Option activity at 22,500 strike to guide Nifty’s direction

On Friday, Indian benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty, opened weak on Friday. The 30-share BSE Sensex fell by 151.21 points to 74,076.42 in early trading, while the NSE Nifty dropped 52.75 points to 22,461.90..

The focus will be on the outcome of the Reserve Bank of India’s credit policy. Besides, global cues will set the tone for the domestic market.

According to analysts, the unabated selling by foreign portfolio investors will likely keep the market under pressure.

Asian equity indices are trading negatively, with most of them falling around one per cent in early Friday trading, tracking the overnight weakness in the US market. Japanese markets were the worst affected among the major Asian equities, as the Nikkei dropped over 2.4 per cent.

However, the major focus on Friday would be on RBI statements after the rate-meet outcome.

According to Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India, the RBI will likely continue with a rate pause at its first MPC meeting for FY25. 

“Even though core and the wholesale inflation has significantly eased but the volatility in food prices continue to impinge consumer sentiment. Thus, keeping the headline inflation above the RBI target level of 4 per cent,” he said.

Key macros resilient

Economic growth has also continued to remain strong, as witnessed in the above-expected GDP growth during Q3 FY’24. He further said that strong growth would continue to provide adequate support for the RBI to keep policy rates unchanged for the next few months.

The RBI’s focus is likely to be on liquidity management, with the continuation of withdrawal of accommodation to keep inflation well anchored and bring it under 4%.

Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, said: India’s March Services PMI stood at 61.2 compared to 60.3 previously, while the Composite PMI was at 61.8 versus 60.6 on a month-on-month basis.

Gold prices surged to a record high on Thursday following statements from Federal Reserve officials reaffirming expectations of interest rate cuts in 2024, although the timing remained uncertain, he said.

Traders are awaiting weekly unemployment claims and trade balance data from the US, along with speeches from Fed officials; he added that “attention will be on the RBI Monetary Policy announcement and the release of the US non-farm payrolls report.”

Stock-speicific action

Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, said the Q4 business updates from a few prominent companies were encouraging, driving stock-specific action in the market.

“Nifty has been consolidating in a narrow range at higher levels for the last few sessions, while broader markets have bounced back strongly, especially after a sharp recent correction. We expect some volatility especially in rate sensitive sector amid India’s central bank’s policy meeting. Overall, we maintain our positive bias on the market, and any dip can be viewed as a buying opportunity,” he added.

Examining the Open Interest (OI) data, the highest OI on the call side is observed at the 22,800 strike price, followed by the 23,000 strike price. Conversely, the highest OI on the put side is seen at the 22,300 strike price, said Mandar Bhojane, Research Analyst at Choice Broking

Ashwin Ramani, Derivatives & Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities, said: the Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) Long Short ratio rose from 31.24 per cent on March 27 to 46.83 per cent on April 2 on the back of strong buying by FPIs in Index futures. However, the FPIs liquidated long positions and built short positions on April 3, bringing the ratio down to 43.79 per cent.

“Strong put writing (Bulls’ entry) coupled with call writers (Bears) exit was observed at the 22,500 Strike in Nifty. This led to Nifty closing above the 22,500 level. The put writers now lead the call writers at the 22,500 Strike, and the option activity at this strike will provide cues about Nifty’s upcoming direction,” he said.

Commodities Market Live Today: Silver down at $26.45 on profit booking

Silver fell after reaching its highest level since June 2021, as investors awaited the important US employment data for fresh indications regarding the Fed’s monetary easing. The most recent economic statistics from the United States, including high initial jobless claims and job cutbacks, as well as weaker growth in the services industry, reinforced the Fed’s decision to begin cutting interest rates sooner rather than later. Previously, some Fed officials stoked expectations that relaxation would begin this year, but additional evidence of declining inflation is required. 

Investors are awaiting a U.S. March employment report for further clues on the health of the U.S. economy and the direction of its monetary policy.

April 05, 2024 09:05

Commodities Market Live Today: Gold ends flat at $2,272

Fed Chairman Powell underlined that the US central bank has time to consider its first rate decrease, given the economy’s resilience and recent strong inflation readings. Perth Mint’s gold product sales in March fell to their lowest level in over five years, owing to a reduction in demand as clients responded to rising costs.

Stock Market Live Today: Broker’s call: Macquarie – AB Capital (Outperform)

We believe Aditya Birla Capital (ABCL) is poised to show strong growth in loans and earnings driven by its lending (NBFC and HFC) and savings (life insurance) businesses in the next several years.

The moats here are: strong parentage and AAA rating providing access to competitive funding; leveraging the ABG group and ABCL ecosystem for cross-selling and upselling in NBFC, insurance, and other segments; diversified product suite and distribution mix avoiding concentration risk in terms of product segment dependency (strong AUM CAGR despite scale down of personal loans).

Stock Market Live Today: Broker’s call: Elara Securities – Muthoot Finance (Buy)

Muthoot Finance is in a sweet spot, given robust growth prospects backed by sound fundamentals and sectoral tailwinds. Fundamentals are underscored by proven moats of leadership and higher productivity (AUM per branch at ₹14.50 crore vs ₹8 crore for IIFL Finance and a mere ₹5.6 crore for MGFL), steady-state branch and customer expansion, customer segmentation with limited share of 27 per cent in the above ₹3,00,000 ticket size which faces rising competition and increased thrust on marketing & digital initiatives along with enhanced customer service to strengthen Muthoot’s competitive positioning.

Stock Market Live Today: In Q4, private banks post robust credit growth; deposits, too, pick up pace

Credit growth for most banks remained robust in the last quarter of FY24, maintaining a steady growth rate of 15-25 per cent, as per provisional quarter-end numbers declared by lenders so far.

A positive trend was the increase in the pace of deposit growth amid concerns regarding stretched loan-to-deposit ratios and loan growth consistently outpacing deposit growth. While year-over-year deposit growth was largely in line with credit growth at 14-26 per cent, sequential growth was higher at 4-15 per cent compared with 1-8 per cent in the previous quarter.
