Mid Market Wrap


Market Commentary:
Ø  Asian stocks fell, the New Zealand dollar slid to a three-month low and gold dropped as data on global jobs and China’s services industry signaled weaker economic growth. Chinese banks slumped after Temasek Holdings Pte. sold shares in the lenders.
Ø  Backhome, sentiments continue to remain bearish on Thursday’s morning trade on the back of fresh selling by funds and retail investors tracking a weak trend across the globe. The benchmark index Nifty breached 5200 mark on feeble rupee. The Indian rupee declined by 26 paise in early trade today to hit fresh four-month low of Rs 53.22.
Ø  Stocks in Focus:
v  FMCG giant Hindustan Unilever (HUL): extended Wednesday's gains triggered by strong Q4 earnings.
v  Sugar stocks like Shree Renuka Sugar, Balrampur Chini, Bajaj Hindustan, Dhampur Sugar Mills rallied 3-6 percent as government on Wednesday removed the cap on sugar exports.
v  Banks stocks (SBI/ICICI/AXSB) declined as the RBI's final guidelines to implement the Basel-III capital rules require banks to steadily build up their capital buffers through March 2018.
v  IRB shares took a beating after the managing director of the company were produced before the court by the CBI to seek permission for the test in a murder case.
Ø  For Nifty May Futs, we expect it to slide further down during the day. It may find support at 5160 level while upside can be restricted to 5225-30.
