Domestic market surrendered to the global trend
With persistent bearish pressure from global stocks amid rising yields and dollar index, the domestic market surrendered to the global trend despite its strong decoupling scenario and encouraging macroeconomic data. Post the release of US inflation data, which showcased a MoM increase in inflation, the global market has been pricing in the likelihood of a more aggressive policy response from the Fed.- Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.
Rupee outlook: USDINR spot price expected to trade in this range in couple of sessions
USDINR (CMP Rs 79.78 spot): Indian rupee depreciated by 0.03% today on weak domestic markets and a strong US Dollar. Domestic markets were down ~1.6%. US Dollar is trading 0.3% higher at 110.01 expectations of a hawkish US Federal Reserve. We expect Rupee to trade with a negative bias on strong Dollar and risk aversion in global markets. Global markets declined after IMF spokesman Gerry Rice flagged concerns over further slowdown in global economy and said that some countries are expected to slip into recession in 2023. Concerns over aggressive rate hike expectations by Federal Reserve may also put downside pressure on Rupee. However, easing crude oil prices may support Rupee at lower levels. Markets may also take cues from FII fund flows data. Trades may also take cues from US consumer sentiment which is expected better than previous reading. USDINR spot price is expected to trade in a range of Rs 79 to Rs 80.50 in next couple of sessions.

Indian Markets finally chose to mirror global cues
Indian Markets today finally chose to mirror global cues after out-performing global peers in the recent past. Weaker domestic flows for last month despite SIPs maintaining their run rate led to profit taking as all sectoral indices ended in the red. As global investors brace for a further interest rate hike post the US inflation data released recently, the RBI too has its task cut out in India when they meet at the end of this month. Spectacular Monsoon in India coupled with several positive Tailwinds provides a plethora of investment opportunities in the broader markets.- S Ranganathan, Head of Research at LKP securities.
Crude Oil Outlook Sept 16
WTI Crude oil (October) CMP $85.30
WTI crude oil October fell 3.8% to end at $85.1 on Thursday and are down 2% for the week so far, amid the mounting fear of recession triggered by surge in UST yields as the market feels 100 basis rate hikes could also be possibility in the upcoming FOMC. US economy remain in contraction during the first two Qtrs and an 100 basis hike could put economy into recession. Crude oil has given up most of its gain for the year to trade weakest in seven months but still remain 13% up ytd. Fundamentals for crude oil remains mostly bearish so far but some uptick was seen in today economic data released from China showing Industrial output up by 4.2% and retail sales also grew by 5.4% in August despite the economy facing the covid-19 related lockdowns. On the supply side Russian oil exports loss, the European and US market but have the loss have been offset by large exports to Asia and hence Russian output is down just 0.31 mbpd in August to pre-war levels. US economic data remains mixed with strong labour market but declining general business conditions. OPEC’s August output rose by 0.61 mbpd to 29.651 mbpd as the group leader Saudi flag marched oil production by 11.051mbpd in August from 10.815mbpd in July. Preliminary July data sees total OECD commercial oil stocks up by 18.1 mb. At 2,699 mb. Overall, we remain bearish and expect oil prices have room for further decline to $82-$78 levels in coming sessions.-
