15-Jul-23 Technical & Fundamental Insight

Last week – review

Going into trade last week, we had maintained cautious view with allocation to be kept around 70% to 85%.  Market momentum seems to be very strong as tech stock which came out with Q1FY24 result, stock prices reacted positively despite weak numbers.

Technical Insight

Nifty RSI @ 72.51 & RSI average @ 70.30.  Nifty closing @ 19564.50 is highest closing recorded in this rally.  Nifty next target / resistance comes at 19716 & support level comes at 19371 & 19232.

Banknifty RSI @ 58.15 & RSI average @ 59.06.  Banknifty closing on Friday’s closing at 44819, immediate resistance at 45110 & support level comes at 44228.

Approach on Technical: Indices rally looks a bit over-stretched.  Momentum on Nifty is very strong and indicate that outperformance may continue over Banknifty in near term.

Our strategy would focus on any long trade would be short term in nature, we continue to remain cautious after huge rally on indices without any major correction.  Nifty @ 19232 & Banknifty @ 44773 would act as strong support level.  Once this level is broken, can expect further downside.

Fundamental Insight

1) India’s Trade Deficit Narrows To $20.1 Billion In June As Exports, Imports Decline
2) India’s WPI Deflation Widens To Near Eight-Year Low In June
3) HDFC Shareholders Allotted Over 311 Crore Shares Of HDFC Bank

Equichain Wealth: Market View & Strategy

We see current rally and momentum very strong as reaction to weak result from IT stocks supported by positive commentary from management that worst is over.  We are already at lower end of the exposure and current rally would stretch valuation a bit more.  HDFCBANK will come out with result on 17-Jul-23, which will provide cues on who banking stocks would react?  Loan growth and advance remain high at average of 15%.  

We are comfortable with our current exposure in equity around 70% to 85% and continue to find opportunity of stock rotation and maintain allocation level at current level.  We would review IT stocks as worst may be behind us and inflation cooling off in US will provide much needed boost for tech spending helping IT stocks.

Global Market – U.S. inflation softening & U.S. Fed preparing for another rate hike

Global Market – Inflation softening & U.S. Fed preparing for another rate hike

This week we will discuss softening of inflation to below 4%, lowest level since April 2021.  US Fed is behind the curve in this cycle.  US CPI & Core CPI data do indicate softening, so now the focus will shift to US Fed meeting on 26-Jul-23.  

US CPI & PPI data – indicate softening

After strong jobs data in first week of July and US FOMC meeting minutes, market is now factoring in 25-bps rate hike on 26-Jul-23.  But CPI & Core CPI data released this week could trigger one more pause before US Fed could review its decision.

Equichain Wealth Advisors: Market View & Opinion

US Fed has long term inflation target of 2% and latest data released is still above U.S. Fed’s long term inflation target.   Current US interest rate is at 5.00% – 5.25%.  In year 2006 – 07, interest rate in US was at 5.25% and sustain at that level for 14-months before we have seen sub-prime crisis.

We believe, economic slowdown and inflation cooling has direct co-relation.  Corporate earnings may get impacted with leg effect as interest rate hike takes some time to show its impact on bottom of pyramid.

Last week – review

Going into trade this week, we maintain status quo and keep exposure around 70% to 85%.  Momentum in indices continue at the beginning of the week which later witness some selling pressure on Friday.  Nifty Small-cap 100 gain by 2.60% this week, other indices gain was capped below 1%.

Technical Insight

• Nifty level for this week would – support level @ 19181 & 18977 & resistance level @ 19512 & 19781.  Nifty likely to continue in consolidation zone with negative bias.

• Banknifty level for this week would – support level @ 44773 & 44228 & resistance level @ 45655 & 45990.  Banknifty seems to be in consolidation zone in uptrend.

Approach on Technical: Indices RSI & RSI average trading near 70 level before seen some supply at higher level after rally of 4% – 5% on Nifty & Banknifty with out any correction.  Fast up move on Indices do indicate some consolidation would be healthy.

Our strategy would to find fresh entry opportunity on correction, Nifty @ 18977 & Banknifty @ 44228 & 43345 would provide healthy entry opportunity.  We would avoid chasing momentum and play catch-up in upward momentum.

Market will now focus on earnings season; IT will start earnings season with HCLTECH & TCS to come out with result on 12-Jul-23 & INFY on 20-Jul-23.  HDFCBANK which usually comes out with result in 2nd week and first among private banks to declare earnings is yet to announce day for Q1FY24 result.

We will continue to maintain strategy to remain invested in range of 70% to 85% and continue keep cautious stance.  Recent run-up seen on indices was too fast as compared to expectation.  Global cues continue to remain muted and indicate rate could go higher.
