The BANK NIFTY index continued to trade in a narrow range between 43,000-43,500 where both the bulls and the bears are sitting on the lines. The undertone remains bullish and one should keep a buy-on-dip approach as long as it maintains the support of 42,800 on the downside. The index on the upside to resume the momentum must surpass the hurdle of 43,500 on a closing basis.

Domestic market continued its quest for gains, boosted by FII inflows. However, markets will be sensitive to the Fed Chair’s remarks later in the day, as investors are expecting a moderation in the pace of rate hikes. An In-line comment will help to sustain the rally while loosening COVID-19 restrictions in China is providing relief to global markets
– Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services
Indian equity markets are cheering at their all-time highs, snubbing the volatility of global markets. The broader market is also trying to catch up momentum as Nifty midcap and smallcap indices are still well below this all time highs. The beauty of the current rally is that the market is finding support from new sectors every day. In the second half of 2022, there is a clear trend of outperformance of Indian equity markets. This trend is likely to continue despite the fact that we are trading at expensive valuations compared to most of our global peers, as our fundamentals are strong and we have strong support from domestic money. The market will react to Jerome Powell’s speech tomorrow, and auto sales figures will cause stock-specific movements. The market’s attention will then shift to the Gujarat election and RBI policy. Globally, news flow from China may continue to cause volatility, while the movement of the dollar index, US bond yields, and crude oil prices will be other important factors. The only concern is that the market is overbought, which may lead to some pullback or consolidation at higher levels, but there are no major signs of weakness. Technically, Nifty has immediate targets of 18888 and 19000, while on the downside, 18700 and 18500 will act as strong support levels.

Harmonised consumer inflation is expected to have risen by 10.4% in November, down from October’s final reading of 10.6%. It’s still more than five times the European Central Bank’s target rate. But after almost two years of near-relentless acceleration in inflation, markets could welcome any sign that the worst may be over.

Federal Reserve is likely to raise rates by 50 bps in Dec 22 policy, hiking overnight rates by cumulative 425 bps during CY 2022. Average CPI in India for FY 24 is expected in the band of 5.00-5.25%. Assuming 100 bps real rates, terminal repo rate in India could be ~ 6.25%. We expect 35 bps hike in the Dec 22 policy, along with change in monetary policy stance from “withdrawal of accommodation” to “neutral” indicating further action to be data dependent. Post this hike, the overnight rates in India would have increased by ~ 300 bps during CY 2022.

We are in an expensive spot. I do not think now is the time to recommend and cajole people to buy more equity. Maybe the time is right to diversify on a relative basis. NASDAQ is fairly cheap compared to many companies that are available both on the private and the public side today. One really has to go through all the options and figure out what might make more sense.

An important feature of the ongoing rally which has taken the Sensex and Nifty to record highs is that this is a mature rally led by high quality stocks in performing sectors. There is no celebration in the market because this rally has largely bypassed the broad market. While the Nifty is up 7.2 % YTD, the Nifty Small cap Index is down by around 12% YTD. So, the vast majority of retail investors whose portfolios are predominantly small cap oriented, have not benefited from this rally. This experience also underlines the importance of investing in quality stocks. Since the valuations are elevated from a near-term perspective, there is no scope for the rally to continue unabated. Profit booking and DII selling at higher levels can trigger corrections. The Fed chief’s observations today will be important for global markets. Markets expect indications of slowing down the rate hikes. Any comments to the contrary will be negative for markets.
