'Narrowed trade deficit, all-time high forex reserve can boost rupee'

Image
The rupee has been Asia's worst performer in August but a string of positive news could arrest the fall in the coming days. After a long phase of consolidation, the USDINR, as expected, continued the up move in the previous week too. Though the bulls opted for profit booking at higher levels and on a weekly basis, the currency pair closed off the week high but still gained 86 paise. The dollar has appreciated more than 3.3 percent the last three weeks but the currency pair is likely to settle down at current levels and minor dip is also not ruled out. The huge rally of the last three weeks is now showing signs of abating, as prices formed “island reversal” candlestick pattern on the daily chart basis. Long positions should be avoided as there is a gap on daily as well as weekly chart and currency pair is trading far away from its 20-day moving average (DMA). Generally, any extraordinary change in price is settled down near its 20 DMA and in this case, i...

SBI extends credit period for auto dealers by 15-30 days

Image
India's largest lender, the State Bank of India, on Sunday said that it is extending the repayment period for stressed automobile dealers by 15-30 days to help them out of current inventory builds-ups due to the slowdown in the sector and in the economy. "Normally, the repayment period is 60 days. So we extend it for 75 days for some dealers and to 90 days for a few others. We are talking to each dealer. We also had meetings with the Federation of Auto Dealers. We are actively engaged with all of them.  "On a case to case basis, whichever dealer has faced any problem on account of excess inventories, we have been working out solutions for all of them," SBI's Managing Director, Retail & Digital Banking, P.K. Gupta said. He also said the current slowdown would not create NPAs.  The auto sector is the worst-hit sector in the current slowdown and apart from huge inventory build-up, the companies are resorting to production shutdowns to c...

M&M tumbles on poor operating performance and uncertain outlook

Image
Shares of Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd (M&M) touched a new 52-week low on Wednesday, mirroring investor disappointment about the company’s June quarter results. Indeed, revenue and profit margins came slightly ahead of the Street’s forecasts. But the all-round weakness in revenue and profit underscored weakness in both automotive (auto) and farm equipment (FE) segments. Overall, M&M’s June quarter net revenue of 12,805.5 crores (including Mahindra Vehicle Manufacturers Ltd) was 4.1% lower year-on-year. Further, negative operating leverage due to plummeting sales dented the Ebitda (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization) margin, which fell by 180 basis points to 14%. A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point. Investors reckon that the auto segment’s operating performance was worse than expected. Even improved realizations failed to compensate for the cost pressures. The upshot: the Ebit margin declined by a sharp 290 basis point...

Oil prices drop as U.S.-China trade dispute stokes demand worries

Oil fell on Wednesday as the intensifying Sino-U.S. trade dispute stoked worries over demand, although a drop in U.S. crude inventories offered some support to prices. International benchmark Brent crude futures were at $58.70 a barrel by 0039 GMT, down 24 cents, or 0.41%, from their previous settlement and trading near seven-month lows. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 20 cents, or 0.37%, from their last close to $53.43 per barrel. "Crude oil prices remained under pressure as investors grappled with the impact of the trade conflict," ANZ bank said in a note. Brent prices have plunged more than 9% in the past week after U.S. President Donald Trump said he would slap a 10% tariff on a further $300 billion in Chinese imports starting on Sept. 1, sending global equity markets into a tailspin. But Trump on Tuesday dismissed fears the trade row with China could be drawn out. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia Energy Minister Khalid Al-Falih and U.S. En...

Image
At an operating level, earnings before interest and tax may decline more than 6 percent, and its margin may contract sequentially by triple digits.

"We expect dollar revenues to grow 1.2 percent QoQ to $2,305 million supported by 0.5 percent contribution from Strong Bridge acquisition," said ICICI Securities, which expects profit to fall 7 percent and rupee revenue to grow 0.2 percent sequentially. Kotak Institutional Equities also expects constant currency revenue growth rate of 1.55 percent of which 1 percent will be organic, with the b...

India exits $2 trillion m-cap club after sell-off by FPIs

Image
Eight of the 10 most valued Indian companies saw a combined loss of Rs 89,535 crore in market valuation in the week ended August 2. After two years, the Indian stock market has exited the $2 trillion club after the sell-off on August 2 erased 8.8 percent of investor wealth.

The big bank theory: State-owned banks to see bullish trend

Image
In the coming months, we are expecting the retail segment to continue to grow at a strong pace (around 19 percent CAGR over F19-20), led by strong consumer demand and increase in penetration by banks. As the banking sector is going through massive changes, it is important for one to understand why private banks have consistently performed better than public sector banks. If we were to have a look towards state-owned banks, the Loan to Deposit (LDR) ratio is near about 65. In the case of private banks, it is in the range of approximately 85-90. As we know that a deposit is a loan for a bank, we can expect in this short-term liquidity crunch scenario that the shadow banking systems like NBFCs (Non-Banking Financial Corporations) and HFCs (Housing Finance Companies) cannot spread their arms easily. But, state-owned banks can do so and increase their loan book. In the present scenario, we can see the competency for private sector banks is reduced due to continuous imp...
