Sensex struggles as bulls continue to stay on sidelines

31 March, 2010 (11:16) | Songs and Music, Stocks & Mutual Funds | By: Zander

Due to lack of support at higher levels, the market is drifting down once again this afternoon. With no big triggers to warrant any significant buying, investors are treading a cautious path today.

With a long weekend ahead and the reporting season not far away, participants appear somewhat reluctant to make fresh commitments. Asian markets struggled today amid concerns about the debt worries in some parts of the globe.

Though Indian economy is showing sure signs of a sustained growth, inflation continues to remain a major concern. There are expectations that the Apex bank may resort to another rate hike to rein in inflation and this has resulted in a section of investors choosing to lighten commitments to a notable extent.

The Sensex is now down 28.49 points or 0.16% at 17,561.68. At 5257.30, the Nifty is down 5.15 points or 0.1% from its previous closing mark.

HDFC rules firm with a sharp gain of 2.6%. NTPC is up nearly 2% at Rs 207. Reliance Infrastructure and Sun Pharmaceuticals are up 1.35% and 1.25% respectively.

HDFC Bank has gained nearly a percent. DLF, ACC, Tata Power, State Bank of India, Wipro, ONGC and Maruti Suzuki are up with modest gains. Bharti Airtel, which rallied sharply this morning and traded firm for well over three hours, has given up almost all its gains now.

ITC is down with a sharp loss of 2.4% at Rs 262.50. Tata Consultancy Services, Hindalco and Infosys Technologies are trading lower by 1.25% – 1.5%. Reliance Industries is down nearly a percent at Rs 1077.50. Hindustan Unilever, Mahindra & Mahindra, BHEL, Larsen & Toubro, Reliance Communications, ICICI Bank and Jaiprakash Associates are also trading weak.

Gujarat NRE Coke, Tech Mahindra, Corporation Bank, United Spirits, HCL Technologies, Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services, IRB Infrastructure, Balrampur Chini, India Infoline and Lanco Infratech are trading notably lower.

After a splendid surge, Procter & Gamble has come off its high due to profit taking. Still, at Rs 2109, more than Rs 100 down from its high, the stock is up as much as 8.8% over its previous closing price.

Ashok Leyland has gained nearly 5% at Rs 56.70. KSK Energy is up with a gain of 4.25%. SAIL, Andhra Bank, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, Sesa Goa, GAIL India, Educomp Solutions, United Phosphorus, CESC and Thermax are also up with handsome gains.

Nifty pares gains; Hindalco, BPCL, IDEA down

31 March, 2010 (10:43) | Songs and Music, Stocks & Mutual Funds | By: Zander

Benchmarks drifted in the negative terrain as traders continued to book profits. Negative Asian markets also dampened sentiments. Gains in auto and power stocks were offset by losses in oil&gas and metals space.
“We expect a flat to slightly positive opening. On the whole, the trend will remain lackluster till the first batch of earnings start kicking in. Though the small-cap and mid-cap counters may remain abuzz one should resist the temptation of buying into illiquid, fundamentally weak stocks. Thursday heralds a new fiscal year. Having completed “year-end” commitments, it will be time to do proper due diligence of your portfolio.
A cooling was due for some time now. Once the key indices touched new 52-week highs it was only a matter of time. Interestingly, the market breadth, which had been negative for a few sessions, turned in favour of the bulls,” said India Infoline report.
At 10:50 am, National Stock Exchange’s Nifty was at 5255.15, down 7.3 points or 0.14 per cent. The broader index touched a high of 5293.90 and low of 5250.65.
Bombay Stock Exchange’s Sensex was at 17580.16, down 10.01 points or 0.06 per cent. The 30-share index hit a low of 17560.76 and high of 17699.50.
BSE Midcap Index was up 0.22 per cent and BSE Smallcap Index moved 0.68 per cent higher.
Amongst the sectoral indices, BSE Auto Index was up 0.64 per cent and BSE Power Index gained 0.61 per cent. BSE Oil&gas Index moved 0.59 per cent lower and BSE Metal Index declined 0.52 per cent.
Hero Honda (1.76%), Bharti Airtel (1.51%), M&M (1.34%), DLF (1.23%) and Tata Motors (1.07%) were the top Nifty gainers.
Hindalco (-1.63%), BPCL (-1.55%), IDEA (-1.50%), Jindal Steel (-1.39%) and IDFC (-1.11%) led the decline.
Market breadth was positive on the BSE with 1467 advances and 920 declines.
US stocks ended in the green after data showed some stabilization in the economy. The Dow Jones industrial average edged up 0.11 per cent, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index closed flat and Nasdaq Composite Index moved 0.26 per cent higher.
Japan’s Nikkei average showed some buying activity on expectations of some recovery in growth next fiscal. However other indices were witnessing profit booking.

Closing Bell

17 March, 2010 (12:09) | Songs and Music, Stocks & Mutual Funds | By: Zander

3:30 pm: Equities advanced further Wednesday, with the Sensex closing at provisional 17,489.57, up 106.39 points or 0.61%. The 30-share BSE
index touched a high of 17,576.78 versus a low of 17,389.47. The top index gainers were Hindalco, TCS, ICICI Bank, Sun Pharma, L&T, Wipro, Reliance Infra, HDFC, ITC, Bharti Airtel, among others. Losers included Maruti Suzuki, Hindustan Unilever, Tata Motors, Tata Power, M&M, ACC.
3:05 pm: Nirmal Bang Securities has recommended investors to buy shares of Unitech with a stop-loss of Rs 73 from a trading perspective. “Buy the stock with a stop-loss of Rs 73 from a trading perspective. If it holds above Rs 77 in the near term then we see Rs 80-82 going forward,” said the brokerage.
2:47 pm: Anagram Stock Broking has advised investors to ‘Subscribe’ to initial public offering of Persistent Systems. The IPO is attractively priced considering the potential upside due to capacity addition and earnings in the long term, it says. “At the upper price band, the issue is priced at a P/E of 12x its annualised earnings for the 9 months ended December 2009. It is attractively priced considering the potential upside due to capacity addition and earnings in the long term. Even from a long-term perspective, the company can provide significant returns. We recommend investors to subscribe to the issue if they wish to get an exposure to the mid-cap IT sector,” the report said.
2:25 pm: Parenteral Drugs India Ltd, through its subsidiary Parenteral Biotech Ltd, has entered into an exclusive license, supply and distribution agreement with Sinovac Biotech Co., China, for purchase and supply of HIN1 Influenza Vaccine (Split Virion) and Inactivated (PANFLU,1) for supply of the products in the Indian market on an exclusive basis. On BSE, shares of Parenteral Drugs were up 0.78% at Rs 220.
2:15 pm: India Infoline has advised traders to buy Mercator Lines for target of Rs 65. “Mercator Lines had been on a downtrend from the first week of March 2010. In fact, the stock has seen a sharp decline from the levels of Rs 61 to a low of Rs 56. The Daily RSI is exhibiting strong positive divergences, which indicates that the worst is over and that the trend should reverse from the current levels. We expect the stock to witness smart pullback from the current levels. Volumes have shown a smart increase in the past few sessions, which suggests accumulation at lower levels. A bullish candlestick on Tuesday further validates our argument of a short-term bounce in the stock. We recommend a buy for a short-term target of Rs 65 with a stoploss of Rs 56,” the report said.
2:00 pm: CARE has assigned ‘IPO Grade 2’ to the proposed initial public offer of Rosmerta Technologies Ltd, which indicates below average fundamentals. Rosmerta is planning an IPO of 28,00,000 equity shares of face value of Rs 10. The grading is constrained by the relatively small size of operations with moderate corporate governance practices and internal control processes reflected in delays in payment of statutory dues in the past, dependence on sole supplier and the fact that business is subject to approvals by the government, exposing Rosmerta to regulatory risks.
1:33 pm: Transport Corporation of India Ltd has approved the Scheme of Arrangement relating to the demerger of “Real Estate & Warehousing” division with effect from April 1, 2010.

MUMBAI: Benchmarks held on to early morning gains on Monday in line with other global indices. All the sectoral indices were in the green led by auto, realty and pharma stocks. ( Watch )
“A bright Monday morning is in the offing as the bulls seem to be in a mood to trespass 5100 comfortably and not be prosecuted. Friday’s smart gains in the US following an encouraging jobs report and higher Asian markets will do the needful as far as opening gains are concerned.
Remaining comfortable above 5100 remains a challenge; but given the momentum in recent times flirting with 5200 seems on the cards shortly. On the downside, 5000 remains a good short-term support.
Overall sentiment has improved slightly post the better than expected Budget. However, in the near term, the market could face some resistance at higher levels. Valuations are not cheap and uncertainties persist on the external front.
On the macro front, things are shaping up well, but much will hinge on how the monsoon unfolds. Concerns over inflation and its fallout on the monetary policy will continue to play on investors’ minds,” said India Infoline report.
At 10:45 am, National Stock Exchange’s Nifty was at 5134.30, up 45.50 points or 0.89 per cent. The broader index touched a high of 5147.10 and low of 5092.15.

“Indices are likely to face resistance at the 17350-17500-17800/5150-5180-5200 levels. Any surge in the indices may see profit taking around the indicated resistances. Downside supports are placed at the 16900-16800-16650/5100-5050-5000 levels. Depending on the global cues we expect to see a recovery from the mentioned supports and the trades could be influenced by strong moves sectorally. Any move until the above mentioned resistances shall be utilized to exit from long positions and look out for a sustainable move. However, looking at the broader scenario we advise investors to play the broad range movement with caution and strict stop losses,” said Karvy Stock Broking in its weekly note.

Market breadth on BSE remained positive with 1949 advances against 603 declines.
“US stocks jumped and the Nasdaq soared to its highest close in 18 months on Friday as US employers cut fewer jobs than expected and consumers’ appetite for credit showed signs of stabilizing.
