What to expect from Thursday’s trade?
Markets will react to the US GDP data in early trades and then the focus would shift to the monthly derivatives expiry. While the Nifty has been hovering around its crucial hurdle of 15,900, the recent decline in the banking index is pointing towards more pain ahead. Participants should maintain caution and focus more on overnight risk management.

Rupee outlook by Gaurang Somaiya, MOSL
Rupee fell to fresh all-time lows following broad strength in the dollar against its major crosses. Dollar rose despite consumer confidence number released from the US came in below estimates. Euro and pound consolidated in a narrow range ahead of major central bank governor’s statement. Today focus will be on the final GDP number; better-than-expected number could support the dollar at lower levels. We expect the USDINR to trade sideways but with a positive bias quote in the range of 78.70 and 79.20.04:05 PM
Tech View: Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities
Nifty witnessed a lacklustre trading session before ending with some losses. On the lower end, 15650-15700 acted as support for the day. On the higher end, it found resistance around previous close. The trend is likely to remian sideward to a bit negative for the near term. Any fall below 15650 might pave the way for a serious correction in the market. Resistances on the higher end, are placed at 15900/16000.03:52 PM
Consumer confidence is declining rapidly due to the uncontrolled & constant rise in inflation. India had to bear the double whammy effect of a dampening global equity market and rising crude prices as major suppliers like Saudi are unable to boost the output in the short-term. However, the domestic market was able to recover most of the losses due to the strong movement of index heavyweights, PSUs, Metals and Oil & Gas stocks before slipping some gains by the end of the day due to volatile global market.

Time for caution on bank stocks: BNP Paribas

10:00 AM
The sharp pullback witnessed in the US last Friday has lost steam and the markets have again turned weak. The decline in commodity prices last week has not sustained and Brent crude is back to above $117. Even though there is no consensus on whether the US economy will slip into recession or not, there are clear signs of the economy slowing down. But the labour market continues to be strong in the US and unemployment is low at 3.6%. In this context of conflicting signals, markets are likely to remain choppy. Investors should understand the fact that big money is made not by investing in a bull market but by systematically investing through a bear market and waiting patiently for the inevitable bull market. So, invest systematically in high-quality stocks.

The rupee has fallen to 79.00 levels much earlier than anticipated as RBI withdraws its hands and with no sellers in the market of the$ and no inflows, today’s opening possibly should be around 79.00 with a range of 78.70 to 79.30 again with a risk to the upside for the pair. Today in the evening we have the GDP data. The rupee seems to be now covering up its earlier slow depreciation and soon we could see a new figure of 80 added up to it. Most Asian currencies have today depreciated and with equities unable to give much relief more depreciation is on the cards.
