Today domestic markets are likely to open negative as the other Asian markets have opened with blood bath. RBI governor Dr. Subba Rao has stated to a Japanese news paper that achieving a GDP growth rate of 7% is little impossible. The IIP growth data for January would come today and the numbers would also have some impact on the market movements. There are anticipations that the January IIP numbers would show little positive growth as against a contraction of 2% in December. The sentiments across other markets are very weak and therefore domestic investors may also trade with a pessimistic and cautious note.
On Monday, the domestic markets opened with a negative gap and closed in red. The sentiments were weak since the opening as anticipated due to weak global cues. There was no sign of recovery throughout the day's trade. Further towards the end the selling pressure intensified and the frontline stocks were brutally shattered. Profit booking was witnessed across the broader level on the surge of Friday's trade. Sectors like Realty, FMCG, Bankex and Teck lost 3.21%, 2.78%, 2.78% and 2.58% respectively. Whereas Auto was the only sectors that remained safe with a marginal gain of 0.07%. During the session we expect the markets to be trading volatile.
The BSE Sensex closed low by 165.42 points at 8,160.40 and NSE Nifty fell by 47 points at 2,573.15. The BSE Small cap and Mid Cap closed with losses of 32.81 points and 45.05 points at 2,553.49 and 2,866.68 respectively. The BSE Sensex touched intraday high of 8,259.22 and intraday low of 8,110.10.
On Wednesday, the US stock markets closed flat. The phenomenal rally in the early trade was later discounted with huge profit booking. The session therefore witnessed a choppy trade after investors booked profits across broader stocks. However investors are also waiting for tomorrow''s congressional committee meeting, which will examine mark-to-market accounting rules. The rules have enabled massive write-downs at banks and other financial companies. The temporarily suspension of the rules could remove an overhang from many financial companies, potentially allowing their shares to rip higher. There was no specific news to drive the markets as such the markets closed nearly flat. US light crude oil for April delivery fell by a drastic $3.38 to settle at $42.33 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The crude oil fell as the US Energy Information Administration said that the domestic crude oil inventories rose more than 7,00,000 barrels to 351.3 million barrels in the week ended March 6. They have further forecasted a fall in the demand of oil during 2009.
