The DEMONETIOSATION drive of the government is likely to see some protests on the street in various parts of the country as few political parties have joined hands for ‘Akrosh Divas.’
Parliament may see less activity today as attention will be on the protests and dealing with the Opposition tirade. The old tradition of Black Friday is losing its charm abroad; online sales on Thanksgiving and Black Friday rose about 18 pc to $5.27 bn.
The outlook is a cautious start. NIFTY and Bank Nifty have cracked 7.6 and 6.5% respectively in November series. PSU Bank stocks could see weakness following the RBI move to mop up excess liquidity; banks have to keep aside deposits collected between Sept 16 and Nov 11 with the central bank. Saudi Arabia seems to suggest that oil producers need not reduce output. With the Dow Jones having crossed the key milestone of 19000 & the S&P 2200 markets could see consolidation globally as investors take stock of the last fortnight. Also the rise in bond yields in tandem with the US $ may not last & pause here would be prudent as markets digest the gains.
NIFTY saw a smart rally moving past 8100 & will now face headwinds around 8150. The sudden RBI move to raise the CRR over the weekend would see financials under pressure as bond yields would rise sharply.
IT outperformance could continue as most participants were under weight on this sector & with the rupee weakness it should see more short covering. Metals, Pharma & IT would see buying today with banks & NBFC under selling pressure.
