Pre Market Report & Global Cues | 09 September
Global cues are weak this morning. US markets closed in the red. Dow fell 1.18%, S&P 0.58%, and Nasdaq 0.32%. The main reason is strong US job data (162K vs 53K expected), which has again increased the chances of a rate hike. Because of this, the US 10Y yield is holding near 4.79%, and that is keeping pressure on global markets. Crude oil is the bigger concern right now. Brent is close to $99.5 after fresh tensions in West Asia and issues around the Strait of Hormuz. For India, this is clearly negative as it affects inflation and keeps pressure on the rupee. There is also some global uncertainty after Canada imposed tariffs on US goods, which is adding to the cautious sentiment. Asian markets are mixed. Kospi is up around 1.6%, but Hang Seng and Straits Times are slightly weak. Because of this, Gift Nifty is indicating a flat to slightly positive start. On the domestic side, India 10Y yield is around 6.95%, which is still on the higher side. The rupee has weakened to 94.8, showing pressure due to rising crude. Nifty closed at 23,635 in the previous session and the overall trend still looks weak. Even if we open flat, the market needs strong buying to turn positive. One more thing to note: ADRs were weak: Infosys, Wipro, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank all saw selling. So IT and banking stocks may start the day under pressure. There will be stock-specific action as well. On the positive side, Enviro Infra has won a ₹190 Cr order, TCS secured a government deal, and NLC India got a 200 MW wind project. Raymond is also in focus after approving a fund raise. On the negative side, Moschip may see pressure due to a legal issue, while Biocon and Sanofi India may remain volatile due to ongoing developments. Sector-wise: Oil-sensitive sectors like aviation, paints and tyres may remain under pressure due to high crude. IT stocks may stay weak after the ADR fall. Capital goods and infra may see stock-specific buying.
