  • 1344: Marketbuzz Podcast with Kanishka Sarkar: Market likely to start in green, IT stocks in focus
    Sep 27 2024
    Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are top developments from around the world ahead of today’s trading session

    -Thursday resulted in a sixth straight day of gains for the Nifty and this six-day winning streak itself has resulted in gains of over 800 points for the index, powered by the index heavyweights HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank. The Nifty Bank has been a key catalyst in this surge that the Nifty has seen going into a fresh series.

    -Auto stocks led by Maruti powered the Nifty ahead during Thursday's trading session. India's largest passenger car manufacturer now has a market capitalisation of well over ₹4 lakh crore. The other bits of gains came from Metal stocks, which continued to rally on hopes of further stimulus being injected in China.

    -Friday's trading session will see the Nifty index rejig taking place post closing and Trent and Bharat Electronics (BEL) will become part of the Nifty 50, replacing LTIMindtree and Divis Laboratories. There will also be rejig in the Nifty Bank and the Nifty 500, and an increase and decline in weightage in a lot of stocks.

    - GIFT Nifty was trading with a premium of 45 points from Nifty Futures' Thursday close, indicating a start in the Green for the Indian market.

    Stocks in focus: IT stocks, Prataap Snacks, Biocon, Nuvama Wealth Management, KEC International, Thangamayil Jewellers, Adani Green Energy, RailTel, RITES, Indian Bank, NTPC Green

    -Stocks in Asia extended gains as risk appetite across financial markets got a further boost from China’s latest stimulus measures and upbeat US momentum. Equities in Australia advanced, while China’s benchmark CSI 300 Index is set for its biggest weekly gain in almost a decade after officials pledged to increase fiscal support and stabilize the property sector to revive growth.


    -Overnight, in the US, revised data showed the US economy in better shape than initially expected, spurred mainly by bigger consumer-driven growth fueled by robust incomes. A decline in US jobless claims underscored the resilience of the labor market. But investors tuning into commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell on Thursday didn’t get any details on the economic outlook or path for monetary policy.

    -Thursday’s Wall Street trading session ended on a strong note, with the three major averages posting gains and the S&P 500 closing at a fresh record for the third time this week. The Nasdaq Composite also notched four straight winning days.

    -In commodities, oil slid further as Saudi Arabia was reportedly committed to increasing output in December, while Libya named its new central bank governor, opening the way to reviving some crude production. Copper rallied back above $10,000 a ton and iron ore broke through $100 while gold hit yet another record high on Thursday.

  • 1343: Marketbuzz Podcast with Kanishka Sarkar: Market likely to start in green, Vedanta, SpiceJet in focus
    Sep 26 2024
    Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are top developments from around the world ahead of the trading session of September 26

    -It seems the Nifty 50 is currently in a not-ready-to-go-down mode. The most minor dip gets bought into swiftly and the index continues to scale new peaks. Wednesday's session was no different and 26,032 is now the new record high for the Nifty and it remains to be seen for how long will that stay.

    -It was a surge in the index heavyweights in the final few minutes of the trading session that took the Nifty to a new peak. HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries, Axis Bank, ICICI Bank, all of them saw a spurt during the final half hour, propelling the index higher. The monthly expiry of the Nifty Bank also had a role to play.

    -Thursday is the monthly expiry of the Nifty and the index has gained over 850 points so far this series. This will be the fourth consecutive F&O Series that the Nifty ends with gains, having gained over 300 points in August as well.

    -Gift Nifty was little changed this morning indicating a muted start for the Indian market this morning.

    -Stocks to focus: Vedanta, PB Fintech, Five-Star Business Finance, Adani Group, ASK Automotive, SpiceJet, IDFC

    -Asian equities rallied this morning as fresh signs of vigor in technology stocks spread across Asia. Currencies pared sharp moves from the prior day that supported the dollar over the yen. Equity benchmarks in the tech-heavy markets of Japan and South Korea advanced.

    -Chinese equities fluctuated in opening trade. The Golden Dragon index of US-listed Chinese stocks fell on Wednesday, which may be an early sign of fatigue for the stimulus-driven rally in Chinese stocks this week.

    -The Dow Jones and S&P 500 retreated from their respective record highs on Wednesday as some selling pressure emerged at higher levels for the two Wall Street benchmarks. The S&P 500 fell 0.2%, while the Dow Jones shed 0.7% or nearly 300 points during the trading session to end below the mark of 42,000. The Dow also snapped a four-day winning streak in the process. However, the Nasdaq just managed to end above the flat line.

    -In commodities, oil was steady after plunging in the previous trading session. West Texas Intermediate, the US oil price, slipped more than 2% on Wednesday to settle below $70 a barrel. Elsewhere, gold traded steady near an all-time high as the weak US data bolstered the case for deeper interest rate cuts.

  • 1342: Marketbuzz Podcast with Kanishka Sarkar: Market likely to open in red, Delta Corp, real estate stocks in focus
    Sep 25 2024
    -Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here aretop developments from around the world ahead of the trading session of September 25

    -The Nifty 50 crossed the 26,000 mark on September 24. However, technical factors, along with the Nifty Financial Services expiry, took the index back to levels at which it closed on Monday. Nonetheless, 26,011 becomes the new record high for the Nifty, which has now gained over 1,000 points in the last nine trading sessions, starting September 11.

    -While the focus remained on the Nifty, there was plenty of stock-specific activity within the broader markets with the Midcap index clinging on to some gains but the smallcap index ended with losses of over half a percent. Stocks like AstraZeneca and IEX moved on their respective newsflow, while names like SH Kelkar and Arvind Smartspaces surged on positive brokerage commentary.

    -This morning the GIFT Nifty was trading with a discount of nearly 20 points from Nifty Futures' Tuesday close, indicating a start in the red for the Indian market. Wednesday will also be the monthly expiry of the Nifty Bank index and that has been the index to watch out for over the last few trading sessions.

    -With the Nifty having moved the way it has, with domestic triggers still a week away from emerging and a landmark and a major event out of the way, the question now emerges whether it will be prudent to book profits at current levels and then wait for earnings to shape up starting the second week of October. By next week, companies will already begin sharing their quarterly business updates and that becomes the next major trigger for the markets.

    -Stocks to track: Easy Trip Planners, real estate stocks, Delta Corp, KEC International, MCX, PC Jewellers, Gillette India, Zee Entertainment, Hindustan Foods, HDFC Life

    -SEBI has cleared the IPO papers for Hyundai Motor India Ltd. As per a Moneycontrol report, Swiggy has also received the nod from market regulator post its confidential filing of draft papers to launch a widely anticipated initial public offer.

    -Asian shares gained for a fifth day as a rally sparked by support measures from Beijing continued, while US stocks set fresh highs. Equity benchmarks rose in South Korea and Australia, while those for Japan slipped after the yen strengthened against the dollar in the prior two sessions.

    -Overnight on Wall Street, US markets continued to shrug off weak economic data to post yet another day of record highs. The Dow Jones gained 0.2% or just over 80 points, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.25%. Both indices hit all-time highs intraday and also closed at record levels. The Nasdaq too, surged 0.6% but is still 600 points away from its own record high levels.

    -In terms of commodities, oil steadied after its biggest advance in more than a week, as traders tracked developments in the Middle East and the impact on demand of China’s stimulus measures. Gold hit a record trading above $2,662 an ounce.
