FIIs end up buying Indian stocks worth over Rs 26,000 crore in June, all eyes now on Budget

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Shrugging off all worries related to elections, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have ended up buying Indian stocks worth about Rs 26,565 crore in June - before the Union Budget and India’s inclusion in JP Morgan’s bond index. After being net sellers in the last two months, a U-turn by FIIs comes amid expectations that reforms will continue after the elections. Improved GDP growth forecast and solid earnings by India Inc has also increased the appeal for FIIs, analysts say. “Political stability despite the BJP not getting majority on its own, and the sharp rebound in markets aided by steady DII buying and aggressive retail buying, has forced the FIIs to turn buyers in India. It appears that FIIs have realised that selling in the most performing market would be a wrong strategy. FII buying can sustain provided there is no sharp up move in U.S. bond yields,” said Dr VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Service...

Will Nifty give up 24,000 or make new highs this week? 7 factors to decide

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] After rising 2% last week despite mixed signals from the global market, Nifty may hold the 23,400-23,700 zone in case of profit-taking, while eyeing levels above 24,500. Global cues, especially from the US, indicate a supportive outlook, with major indices continuing their upward trend despite intermittent consolidation. "Investor attention was predominantly on large-cap stocks, resulting in underperformance of mid and small-cap segments. The IT sector especially showed notable recovery along with private banks which outperformed public sector banks in the banking segment," said Vinod Nair of Geojit Financial Services. Here are key factors that would determine Nifty's trajectory this week: 1) FII flows Market data shows foreign investors bought Indian stocks worth over Rs 26,500 crore in June. "It appears that FPIs have realised that selling in the most performing market would be a wrong strategy. FPI buying can sustain...

Where US stock market is headed after wild first half: 5 charts

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] A boom in artificial intelligence fueled a blistering first half for the US stock market, and traders expect to see the same — and more — in the remainder of the year. The S&P 500 Index has climbed 14% since the beginning of January, notching its second-best stretch of records to start a year this century, thanks to a resilient economy, improved corporate earnings and torrid demand for companies linked to AI. Even with signs of economic cooling, the rally is getting help from a Federal Reserve that’s considering when to trim rates after the most disruptive tightening campaign in decades. A strong first-half in the stock market has historically boded well for the rest of the year. Whether that will be the case again is anyone’s guess, considering wild cards on the horizon. The US presidential election in November — which may move stocks haywire — is one of them. Uncertainty about the path of interest-rate cuts is another. Agencies Afte...

Tech boom leads global markets through first half of 2024

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] The unstoppable march of the mega caps, sloth-like central bank pivots, political palpitations aplenty and M&A is back - the first half of 2024 has been another whirlwind in world markets. Forecasts for a global interest-rate-cutting frenzy may not have materialized, but Nvidia and the rest of the Magnificent 7 soared another $3.6 trillion in market value. MSCI's 47-country world stocks index has clocked up a punchy 11% since January. Good yes, but nowhere near the 30% leap of team tech, or the frankly eye-popping 150% gain of chip champ Nvidia. "Thirty percent of the S&P's returns this year have come from Nvidia alone," the chief investment officer of IBOSS Asset Management Chris Metcalfe said, pointing out it was now the most expensive stock on the most expensive market in the world. It is not just equity markets where milestones have been set. Japan's yen has bowed to a 38-year low against the dollar in ...

US inflation cools in May, boosting hopes of Fed rate cut

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] U.S. monthly inflation was unchanged in May as a modest increase in the cost of services was offset by the largest drop in goods prices in six months, drawing the Federal Reserve closer to start cutting interest rates later this year. The report from the Commerce Department on Friday also showed consumer spending rose marginally last month. Underlying prices advanced at the slowest pace in six months, raising optimism that the U.S. central bank could engineer a much-desired "soft landing" for the economy in which inflation cools without triggering a recession and a sharp rise in unemployment. Traders raised their bets for a Fed rate cut in September. "This was a very Fed-friendly report that should keep the September rate cut in play, while at the same time increasing investor confidence that moderate economic growth can be maintained even as rates stay higher for longer," said Scott Anderson, chief U.S. economist at ...

187 BSE500 stocks offer double digit returns as markets scaled new heights in June

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Indian benchmark indices scaled new heights gains in the last week of the June month despite mixed signals from the global market, particularly regarding inflation concerns. While the largecap stocks saw significant investor attention, the broader market of mid and small-cap segments underperformed. During the June month, as many as 187 BSE500 stocks have delivered double digit weekly returns with four of them offering over 40% returns. The India Cements was the top gainer in this pack with nearly 44% return, followed by Amara Raja Energy (41%), JK Paper (40.5%), and V Mart Retail (40.5%). About 11 stocks including Praj Industries, Bombay Burmah, IFB Industries, Bayer CropScience, Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders, Cholamandalam Financials, Whirlpool India among others have offered returns between 30-40%. In the smallcap segment, about 2 stocks GTL Infrastructure and Moschip Technologies have turned multibaggers. While GTL Infrastructure has gain...

Economic cracks are getting exposed in the 2024 market bounty

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Fresh meme-stock mania took center stage on Wall Street this week just as the world’s biggest equity market closed out another blistering quarter. Yet behind the scenes, softening economic growth is testing bullish investor convictions, while fueling big divides between the strong and the weak across Corporate America. Dispiriting trends that have been visible for months now alongside the frenzy for megacap tech stocks and private credit – are on display yet again. Companies with dicey balance sheets have underperformed anew in June. Equal-weighted stock benchmarks where disruptive AI market leaders have the same weighting as industrial bellwethers have lagged yet again. A dose of good news on consumer prices initially boosted sentiment in early Friday trading, with the S&P 500 closing the week little changed. Along the way, warnings have grown that the Federal Reserve is waiting too long to release the economy from its anti-inflatio...

Panic selling or doing nothing: The wisest choice for investors

Image
[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1] Indian markets have been riding a wave of unprecedented highs, setting new records week after week. However, this bull run hit a roadblock on June 4, 2024, when the market experienced a sharp decline of 5.93%. However, the market recovered from this sharp fall within three trading days. This underscores the fascinating dynamics of investor psychology and panic selling, where emotions often drive decisions more than rational analysis. Panic selling is a phenomenon where investors, gripped by fear, rush to sell their holdings during a market decline. The fear of further losses and erosion of gains in profitable stocks can overwhelm even long-term investors, leading to hasty decisions that may not align with their financial goals. To understand the impact of panic selling, it is essential to examine specific data on major market corrections. Large single-day declines often indicate widespread panic and fear among investors. Date of Fall Sing...
