Economy: A Marginal Slowdown

Economic growth for Q3FY2018-19 slowed down to 6.6%, which is marginally below the consensus

estimate of 6.7%. GVA (Gross Value Added) also slowed down to 6.3% as against consensus estimate

of 6.5%.

The government has lowered its growth estimate for FY2018-19 to 7% compared to 7.2% in the first

advance estimate. In the second advance estimate released today, CSO expects GVA growth to be

6.8%. GDP growth rate for Q1FY2018-19 which was 8.2% earlier has been revised down to 8%. Similarly,

the growth rate for Q2FY2018-19 has been revised down to 7% from the previous 7.2%.

The advance estimate shows a minor slowdown in GDP growth from 7.2% in FY2017-18 to 7% for

FY2018-19. This implies Q4FY2018-19 growth of 6.5%. The slowdown can be attributed largely to

Agriculture (growth of 2.7% in FY2018-19 vs. 5% in FY2017-18) and Mining & Quarrying (growth of 1.2%

in FY2018-19 vs. 5.1% in FY2017-18).

There is a silver lining though; growth in fixed capital formation remains strong at 10.6% for Q3FY2018-

19. CSO estimates a growth of 10% for the entire fiscal year, which also indicates that CSO anticipates

a slowdown in growth for Gross Fixed Capital Formation rate in Q4FY2018-19. The reason why a

slowdown is likely one is caution ahead of general elections and the other is the crisis arising from the

NBFC sector. We believe that growth in gross fixed capital formation can rebound in FY2019-20 and

beyond, capacity utilization is still low 74.8%, however, this trending higher.

While the former headwinds would be out of the way if the election results are in favor of the formation

of a stable government, the latter needs intervention from the RBI and we believe that as a result of

liquidity infusion by way of lowering Repo rate should help reverse the slowdown. Similarly, the worst

phase of the banking sector is past and it should be able to support the economy going forward.

There are a few concerns going forward, firstly, the agricultural sector remains a risk which can have

second-round impacts as well. Secondly, a slowdown in the global economy is a risk and thirdly,

potential OPEC output cuts indicate a risk to India via higher crude prices.

However, we believe that despite these risks growth is likely to revive by Q2FY19-20 and we remain

optimistic. Equity markets in India face many challenges in 2019- uncertain global economic outlook,

fears of a global recession. Elections and crisis in NBFC are a risk. Data we believe points certainly to a

slowdown in global economic growth, but risks of a recession remain low. US unemployment at 4% is

close to a 40 year low, and US consumer confidence has rebounded after a dip in January, and inflation

expectations remain low. This implies that the US central bank may be less aggressive in raising rates

in CY2019.

In China, though the latest PMI still signals continued softness in the economy, policymakers have

taken action to arrest the slowdown. Reserve Requirement ratio has been cut by 3.5% since the

beginning of 2018, and recently fiscal policy is being loosened. This should have an impact, and growth

prospects in China should improve.

Election of a stable, reform-oriented government and as fears of a global economic recession fade,

equity markets can rally significantly in the coming months.

BEAT THE STREET - TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Ashok Leyland

Ashok Leyland, flagship of the Hinduja group, is the second largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles in India, the fourth largest manufacturer of buses in the world, and the tenth

largest manufacturers of trucks. A US $ 4 billion (2017-18) company, and a footprint that extends across 50 countries, it is one of the most fully-integrated manufacturing companies

this side of the globe. The company is a pioneer in the Commercial Vehicle (CV) space; many product concepts have become industry benchmarks and norms. Technically, the stock

has formed a Bullish Bat Harmonic chart pattern which has positive implications in the short to medium term. The chart clearly depicts that the recent round of selling in the counter is

weakening as the DMI- (32.88) has cut the ADX 41.65 from above. The RSI, on the other hand, has also shown first signs of reversal and has given a positive crossover with the RSI (36.44)

trading above the RSI Avg (33.01), which is a big positive in itself. Hence, we recommend traders who are willing to invest for the short to medium term must bite into this automobile giant

at current levels, Average around Rs.74 and hold the stock for potential upside targets of Rs. 115 & Rs. 120 in the stipulated time frame.

Axis Bank Ltd

AXISBANK is trading with a secular uptrend and is currently trading with a strong bullish bias as seen in the daily charts with decent volumes. During the current uptrend, the stock has

also witnessed a decent breakout at 650 levels with decent volumes, indicating the buying interest in the stock. Among the leading indicators, CCI (60) and Heiken candlesticks indicate

a positive trend in the daily chart as well as the weekly charts. RSI(14) and Stock (5,3,3) indicators in the daily chart is showing a bullish bias, indicating the stock is being accumulated by

stronger hands on every dip. On the momentum setup, weekly MFI (30) is pointing northwards after giving a positive crossover with the signal line and, in the daily time frame, the oscillator

bounced off taking the support of 35 levels reaffirming underlying strength in the counter. Weekly MACD (12,26,9) as well is trading above the zero lines in weekly charts, indicating the

inbuilt strength in the counter. Considering all the above data, we recommend traders to enter the stock around 695 levels for the higher targets of 850 followed by 870 levels and any

correction towards 650 levels can be utilized to average the stock keeping a stop loss below 600 levels on closing basis.

SECTORAL SNIPPETS

NIFTY BANK (27,043.90) marginally underperformed Nifty with a gain of 0.66% during the week passed by, while the broader index Nifty gained by 0.67%. During the week, the index took crucial support at 26,719 levels and witnessed a range bound movement throughout the week. Considering the technical setup on the daily charts, the index may continue to remain sideways in the short term ahead in the range of 26,400 to 27,600 levels. On the stock front, FEDERALBNK, YESBANK, RBLBANK, BANKBARODA and PNB gained by 7.74%, 6.71%, 5.61%, 5.54% and 5.05% during the week. Ravneet Gill joined Yes Bank as MD & CEO on March 1st. His tenure as approved by RBI is 3 years from the date of his joining, i.e. 1st March 2019, to 28th February 2022. The appointment of Gill will be subject to the approval of shareholders’ at the ensuing annual general meeting of the bank to be held in June 2019. State-owned Bank of Baroda (BoB) plans to sell a series of non-performing assets (NPAs) totalling Rs. 5,929 crore including Rs. 1,839 crore owed by debt-ridden telecom company Reliance Communications on the cash basis. On the other side, KOTAKBANK lost 1.11%. Technically, Bank Nifty may face crucial resistance at 27,200 and 27,590 levels. For the week ahead, support for the index can be pegged at 26,650 levels followed by 26,380 levels.

NIFTY FIN SERVICE (11,308.15) underperformed Nifty last week and closed the week on a flat note and generated a negative return of around 0.18%, whereas Nifty closed the week with a positive return of around 0.65%. The index bounced well from the low of 11,134.60 levels. Historical price action in the sector reflects that any minor dip in the stock may attract buyers which will help index to resume its up move. Most of the stocks from the financial space have seen stock specific action in the previous week where the majority of them have been trading with a positive bias. The immediate support in the index comes around 11,150 levels and below that are 10,950 levels. The index may find resistance around 11,400 levels and above that are 11,600 levels. The stocks from the sector that closed the week with positive bias are BAJAJFINSV, BAJFINANCE, BHARATFIN, ICICIPRULI and M&MFIN which closed with returns of 3.85%, 0.72%, 3.38%, 3.68% and 3.08%, respectively, whereas the stocks like EDELWEISS, HDFC and IIFL closed the week with a negative return of around 5.05%, 1.46% and 4.93%, respectively. Stock specific action is expected from the sector in the coming week. We hold our positive view in the index for the week.

NIFTY METAL (2922.70) continued its pullback mode with gains of around 3% for the week. Last week, the index ended with strong gains of more than 5%. Previously, the index posted losses for 8 continuous weeks and is currently recovering some of its lost ground. From the recent major swing highs, the index has corrected more than 30%. The broader index Nifty 50 has ended with a slight gain of around 0.65%, which depicts the power of short covering and value buying in the metal counters. Even for the month of March, the index has opened higher and closed near its daily highs, hence holding onto the gap up, can take the index much higher. However, the index is still placed below its all major short, medium and long term moving averages, confirming the ongoing medium-term downtrend while derivatives rollovers of most of the stocks in the space suggest some more room is left for the upside. Going into the internals, the breadth of the index is very strong and stands at 13 gainers and rest 2 remained as losers or ended at flat line. Leading the leader board, SAIL, NMDC, NATIONALUM, MOIL, JSLHISAR, COALINDIA, and APLAPOLLO gained more than 5% for the week, while on the laggard board, JSWSTEEL and HINDALCO have managed to hold on to the flat line. Technically, immediate supports for the NIFTY METAL index are pegged around 2800-2850 levels followed by 2700-2750 levels. Whereas on the upside, immediate resistances are placed around 2970-3000 followed by 3040-3060 zone. Going forward, we expect the index to trade with positive bias in the range of 2850 to 3050.

NIFTY AUTO (8413.65) outperformed Nifty 50 index on weekly basis and ended the week with over 1.50% returns which was majorly due to the surge in the heavyweight counters among which MOTHERSUMI, ASHOKLEY, BOSCHLTD, TATAMOTORS and BAJAJ-AUTO surged around 11.40%, 5.90%, 3.50%, 3.30% and 1.50%, respectively, while on the contrary, only EICHERMOT ended the week in red and plunged approximately 3%. Technically, the index has witnessed support near 8000 levels which is the previous swing low and bounced from the same, suggesting it to be strong support. Even the index witnessed robust volumes on closing basis for the whole week setting up a bullish view in the counter. The next support for the counter is pegged around 8200 levels which is the weekly swing low followed by 8000 levels. While on the contrary, the resistance is pegged around 8650-8700 levels followed by 8800 levels. On oscillator front, the index has witnessed good recovery from the lower band towards the mean of the Bollinger band (20, 2) and has settled above the mean affirming our bullish stance. Even 14 period RSI is placed around 46-51 levels, suggesting further upside room in the counter. Going forward for the coming week, it is advisable to trade cautiously in the counter and look for stock specific action as there might be momentum throughout the week because of the monthly sales data.

DABUR INDIA LTD BUY DABUR (MAR FUTURE) | CMP: 446.50 SECTOR: FMCG

DABUR traded the week with a positive bias. The stock closed with a positive return of more than 2% and outperformed its benchmark index NIFTYFMCG which closed with a positive return of 0.79% during the last week. Adding to that, the stock is trading well above its major moving averages on the daily charts with a positive price structure, indicating positive momentum in the stock is likely to continue in the coming trading sessions as well. On oscillator front, the 14 period RSI is trading well above its 9-day signal line and poised with a bullish bias, indicating that the stock is likely to continue its outperformance in the coming trading sessions as well. The Parabolic SAR (Stop & Reverse) on the weekly chart is trading below the price which reflects, buying will remain intact in the counter in the coming trading sessions. From the above observation of price momentum, it seems the stock is likely to trade with positive bias in the coming trading sessions also. Therefore, we recommend Smart Traders to initiate long position in the counter around 440 levels with a stop loss placed below 420 for the higher target of 470 levels.

ASIAN PAINTS LIMITED: SELL ASIANPAINT (MAR FUTURE) | CMP: 1402.50 SECTOR: CD

ASIANPAINT ended the previous week on a flat to positive note by ~0.36% with a rise in volumes, indicating a possible distribution pattern in the counter. The stock also closed below its shorter-term 21 DEMA, thereby adding to our bearish stance on the counter. The stock also has immediate support around 1380-1370 levels, which if broken on a conclusive basis, can trigger a fresh round of selling towards the mentioned target levels. Many stocks from the FMCG pack have witnessed profit taking during last week and the same bearish sentiment is likely to continue in the said space in the next week as well. This current bearish setup gives aggressive traders an excellent opportunity to go short as per the levels mentioned above since the stock has closed at a multiyear low and has given a distribution breakdown as seen on daily charts.

WEEKLY VIEW OF THE MARKET

NIFTY (10,863.50): Last week, the Indian markets saw a lot of volatility owing to the geopolitical tensions arising due to India’s response to the terror strikes in Pulwama (J&K) which shook the nation last month. Panic struck market participants for a brief period as Pakistan retaliated and the war-like situation became a reality as both countries suffered damages. Overall, this negativity could not rattle the markets as the Nifty managed to shut shop at its highest level in 3 weeks, to settle at 10,863.50, up by 0.67% for the week, but below the 50% retracement of Nifty’s entire down move from 11,760.20 to 10,004.55. The market has also witnessed intense volatility and knee jerk reactions during the last week, owing to the fragile situation of a possible war. The overall market sentiment hereafter in the short term will depend heavily on whether the two countries resort to diplomatic actions or escalate the issue to a new level. Global trends have also been indecisive, hence adding to the overall confusion pertaining to the direction of the market. We expect strong buying to come in only if the psychological 10,900-11,000 zone is crossed and held on a weekly closing basis. In case of a rally towards the above-mentioned zone, traders who are stuck up in leveraged long positions must try to exit their positions and use such rallies relieve them of the burden of remaining stuck.Technical resistances for the index lie around 10,900-11,000, above which 11,050-11,100 will offer very stiff resistance. On the other hand, supports for the benchmark index lie around 10,650-10,600 below which the levels around 10,520-10,480 will act as the next levels of respite if selling pressure is not absorbed by the first zone of support. We expect Nifty to move in a range of 10,700-11,000 with bullish bias in the coming week.

Domestic fundamentals are still unsupportive due to lingering demand concerns. Despite weaker production outlook prices are unable to hold the gains mainly due to the subdued demand from millers. Major Cotton agencies have reduced their forecast of cotton consumption in India due to poor offtake by millers. Millers are going for hand to mouth buying due to tumbling export of cotton and yarn from India. Cotton Corporation of India has procured about 8.5 lakh bales of cotton in season 2018-19 and could buy about 15 lakh bales by end of the season as per news sources. Meanwhile, USDA released weekly export sales report for the week ending on 21st Feb showed net sales of 85,500 RB for 2018/2019 were reported for Indonesia (29,600 RB), Vietnam (27,800 RB), Turkey (27,400 RB), Bangladesh (21,500 RB), and Pakistan (7,900 RB).

China released its trade data for the month of Jan showed China brought in 7.38 million tons of soybeans in January, down from 8.48 million tons a year earlier, lower by 13% YoY. Moreover, the commencement of harvesting activities in Brazil also added pressure to prices. Soybean prices are expected to trade sideways today due to the absence of fresh cues to the market. The soybean market is closely watching the ongoing trade deal between the US and China and any positive development could support the prices further. However, huge stocks at the physical market and shrinking crush margin for millers could cap the excessive gains in prices. Mustard seeds futures at NCDEX platform traded mixed to lower due to reports of rise in acreages for the upcoming season. The area under mustard seed cultivation has touched 69.37 lakh hectares as on 15th Feb against 67.06 lakh hac of the prior year, higher by 3.44% YoY.

Turmeric futures noted sharp recovery as they cut short from their 8-week continuous fall on short covering after prices fell to multi week’s low of Rs.6114 per quintal. Further, fresh buying activities at the lower levels supported good recovery in prices; expectations of a revival of the buying activities at the spot market from stockiest and masala manufacturers helped in price recovery.

NEWS DIGEST

• Iraq’s oil exports averaged 3.620 million barrels per day (bpd) in February, down slightly from the previous month, the oil ministry said in a statement on Friday. Iraq exported 3.649 million bpd of crude oil in January.

• According to the first estimate of rabi production in 2018-19, National Bulk Handling Corporation (NBHC), rabi cereals production is expected to decline by 9.91%, while chana/gram is the most affected pulse seeing 9.92% fall in acreage. “As per our study, the total rabi cereals production for the year 2018-19 is expected to be lower by 9.91% to 115.49 Million MT and wheat is expected to show a decline in area by 2.54% to 29.66 Million Ha and production by 4.99% to 94.72 Million MT owing to scanty and inequitable distribution of rainfall in major growing areas,” an NBHC release said.

• The global zinc market deficit widened to 96,600 tons last November from a revised deficit of 52,000 tons in October, data from the International Lead and Zinc Study Group (ILZSG) showed on Monday. In the first 11 months of 2018 the zinc market had a 326,000 ton deficit, compared with a deficit of 435,000 tons in the same period last year.

• Venezuela’s oil exports sank 40% in the first full month after the beginning of US sanctions designed to oust Socialist President Nicolas Maduro, according to data from state-run oil firm PDVSA and Refinitiv Eikon. Venezuela’s exports since then have dropped to 920,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude and fuel, the data shows. That is down from between 1.47 million and 1.66 million bpd of crude and fuel in the prior three months, the data show.

WEEKLY COMMENTARY

• Gold slipped to two-week lows and was set for its biggest weekly fall in nearly four months on Friday, pressured by a reviving dollar and as equity markets bounced back. Spot gold is down about 1.6% so far this week, which could be its biggest weekly decline since the week ending Nov. 9. It was down 0.4% at $1,307.01 an ounce at 1320 GMT, having touched its lowest since Feb. 14 at $1,305.43. US gold futures shed 0.6% to $1,308.40.

• The Indian rupee ended weaker against the US dollar on Friday, on the back of consistent demand for the greenback from state-run banks and importers. Sentiment remains dampened with the Central Statistics Office’s (CSO) data stating that India’s economic growth slowed to a 5-quarter low of 6.6% in October-December period of this fiscal on the back of the lower farm and manufacturing growth and weaker consumer demand.

• Crude Oil prices were broadly steady on Friday as surging US supply and concerns of a global economic slowdown were offset by falling OPEC output. International Brent crude futures were at $66.39 per barrel at 1231 GMT, up 8 cents from Thursday’s settlement. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures were at $57.38 per barrel, up 16 cents.

• Zinc rose on Friday on concern about shortages after inventories slid, but some other industrial metals were softer after factory activity in top metals consumer China contracted. Benchmark LME zinc rose 0.6% to trade at $2,793.50 a ton in official open outcry activity, after climbing 13% so far this year.

TRADE WAR REVIEW

“China is neither an ally nor a friend — they want to beat us and own our country,”

tweeted by President Trump, way before in September 2011 before running for the

presidency, marked the inception to criticize China’s trade practices. Later in April

2017 United States Trade Representative (USTR) began an investigation to identify

whether the imports of steel/aluminium pose a threat to national security. Following

a series of such investigation on acts, policies and practices by USTR, President

Trump placed a 30% tariff on all solar panel imports, except for those from Canada,

(worth US$8.5 billion) and a 20% tariff on washing machine imports (worth US$1.8

billion). However, on 22nd March 2018 Trump signed a specific memorandum

which directs to file a WTO case against China for their discriminatory licensing

practices and impose tariffs on Chinese products such as aerospace, information

communication technology and machinery. Down the line since 23rd March 2018,

the US and China had a series of imposition of tariffs on each country’s goods to

protect their economy and finally in December 2018 both the opponents reached a

90 day truce and refrained from increasing the tariffs from 10% to 25%, when they

met at the G-20 Buenos Aires Leaders’ Summit. After the deal, China’s Ministry

of Finance announced to temporarily remove additional 25% tariffs on US autos

and 5% tariffs on certain US auto parts for three months, beginning on January 1,

2019. This truce of 90 day witnessed some optimism after the US President Trump

decided to meet Liu He on 22nd February. And with the recent statement of Trump

to delay the imposition of tariffs on $250 billion worth of Chinese goods, demand

growth from the top metal consumer is bringing support to the commodity prices.

TECHNICAL RECOMMENDATIONMARKET STANCE

Border tensions between India and Pakistan dominated the rupee movement during the week. The Indian rupee fell against the dollar, as India’s air strikes against a terrorist training camp in Pakistan territory escalated geopolitical tensions. However, an increase in supply by local banks on behalf of Central Bank has restricted the losses. Hit by the border tensions between India and Pakistan, Rupee ended with minor cuts. Although, the tensions have partly cooled off after Pakistan decided to return Indian pilot to home but failed to erase all losses tracking weakness in Asian peers and broad strength in Green Back. Dollar index extended its correction and fell to three week low, dollar index suffered its biggest decline in February post-Fed chair Jerome Powell testimony to Congress. Powell has acknowledged the slowdown in the US economy but remained extremely bullish over the long run. Industrial production in Japan contracted by -3.7% while the Reuters poll of investors was expecting a drop of only -2.4%. Along with this Retail sale of Japan also dropped to 0.6% from 1.3% while investors expecting an upside of 1.4%. Yen would continue to remain under pressure as Japan economy continue to publish weak economic numbers and investors certainly do not expect a recovery in the economy in the near term. Brexit Secretary Barclay said that there was no consensus in Parliament about a second referendum. Investors’ hopes on UK parliament might choose to extend the Brexit deadline or introduce a second referendum has lifted the GBPUSD pair recently.

NEWS FLOWS OF LAST WEEK

• US gross domestic product increased at a 2.6% annualized rate in the fourth quarter, above economists’ forecasts for a 2.3% gain.

• China’s factory activity improved in February but remained in contradictory territory for a third month as the world’s second-largest economy continued to struggle with weak export orders.

• The US will need to maintain the threat of tariffs on Chinese goods for years even if Washington and Beijing strike a deal to end a costly tariff war, President Trump’s chief trade negotiator Robert Lighthizer told lawmakers.

• BoJ board member Kataoka said the central bank must ramp up monetary stimulus to achieve its inflation target as maintaining the current policy for too long could cause excessive swings in the economy.

• The US economy is operating at near full employment, and with inflation near the Fed’s 2-percent goal and upward pressures “muted,” the point of policy now is to keep it there, Fed Vice Chair Clarida said.
