14:12 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 RBI likely to hike repo rate by 35 bps in June policy meet
Not an easy job for the central banker. Recently released GDP data showed a sliding y-o-y growth for private consumption expenditure, an indication that economic activity remains slow. On the other hand, the inflation surprise has brought to the fore the need for the RBI to tighten monetary policy. The government has also joined the RBI in an attempt to contain inflationary pressures in the economy. We see the RBI extending its 40bps repo hike of May with a 35bps increase in June, followed by 25bps each in August and September. By this time, we expect the global growth to have softened enough to pull down commodity prices and thus provide some comfort to the domestic inflation cycle too. We thus factor in the RBI to press the pause button again after a 15bps insurance hike in the repo rate in December and analyze the implications of its rate hike cycle of 140 bps on growth before taking any further decision.

13:52 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Investors with a long-term view can buy LIC stock
The insurance giant, LIC Ltd. is currently trading below its IPO price. The issue was priced at a price to the embedded value of 1.1x, which is a discount compared to its domestic as well as global peers. This valuation discounts concerns with the company like losing market share to private players, lower profitability & revenue growth compared to private players, lower VNB margins and short term persistency ratios. However, we believe India’s highly underserved life insurance market is still in its infancy and is well-positioned to capitalize on the enormous growth potential. LIC has a number of competitive advantages, including a strong brand value, a massive network of agents, and an enviable distribution network. So, investors with a long-term view can buy this stock at CMP and follow a buy on dip strategy. Santosh Meena, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart

13:24 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 How to trade interest rate sensitive stocks ahead of RBI monetary policy this week; bet on these shares
The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will announce the outcome of its bi-monthly meeting tomorrow and experts are certain another rate hike is imminent. The only thing to watch out for now is the magnitude of the hike. Dalal Street seems nervous with BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty 50 already down more than 1% this week, but experts say investors may bet on rate-sensitive stocks for potential gains ahead of the RBI policy decision. Analysts believe rate-sensitive sectors such as financials are ones to watch out for just ahead of the MPC’s decision, where inflation is now taking the centrestage.

13:19 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Sensex tanks 1% one day ahead of RBI MPC outcome, Nifty may fall to 16115 below 16400; what’s dragging D-St?

So far in the day BSE Sensex has fallen to a day’s low of 54,882.41, while Nifty 50 hit 16,375.15.

12:55 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Expect CPI inflation to moderate to 7.1% in May
We expect CPI inflation to moderate to 7.1% in May, as favourable base effects mask sequential price rises. While the government has announced some supply side measures to ease cost pressures, we think it will be some time before these have any material impact on inflation.

11:55 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 PB Fintech stock tumbles 10%
PB Fintech Ltd. is India’s leading online platform for insurance and lending products. The stock tanked as much as 10 percent on Tuesday after the announcement of a stake sale by the CEO of the company. The stock got listed in November 2021 and has seen almost a 70% fall since its listing. The issue was exorbitantly priced at market to sales of 46.40x during its IPO, and it remains expensive despite the recent correction. The company operates in a very competitive space as there aren’t any significant barriers to entry, plus the company is still a loss-making one despite the significant rise in revenues in FY22. Further, we believe that the current market conditions are punishing companies that are growing without showing profitability and are skeptical of companies that are relying on buzzwords like “underpenetrated in India” to show a rosy future picture.

11:52 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Power shortage to continue as economic activity increases, but SBI, ICICI Bank, NTPC, other stocks may benefit
With rising economic activity the demand for power has been robust while supply has been lagging. Analysts at Bank of America Securities (BofA) believe power shortage in the peak season will persist as the supply-demand mismatch on slower thermal capacity addition in the past few years continues and demand remains robust. BofA analysts, however, see positives for select sectors and stocks even as the power supply remains tight. Analysts noted that financials such as State Bank of India, ICICI Bank and others such as NTPC and BHEL could benefit over the next few years as this demand-supply mismatch is bridged.

Shares of Oil India have surged 15 per cent in 5 days as Brent crude oil prices rose. In comparison, the Nifty 50 index has dropped 1 per cent. Oil India stocks jumped over 5 per cent in the previous session as oil prices rose more than $2 in early trade after Saudi Arabia raised prices sharply for its crude sales in July. Analysts at HDFC Securities believe that Oil India is a favourable buy. “A target price of Rs 300 is premised on increase in crude price realisation and improvement in domestic gas price realisation,” the brokerage firm had said in a Q4FY22 result update report. Oil India shares were trading flat at Rs 278 on BSE intraday. Read full story

10:04 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Market direction is likely to be influenced more by inflation in US
The market direction is likely to be influenced more by the inflation in the US, which, in turn, will decide how far the Fed will go in raising rates. This will be the key determinant of possible ‘risk on’ or ‘risk off’ in equity markets globally. A rising rate scenario will improve the margin of the banking sector since deposit rates lag lending rates. The most attractively valued segment in the market now is financials, particularly banking.

09:01 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Rupee likely to depreciate amid strong dollar, unabated foreign funds outflows
The Indian Rupee is expected to depreciate further, and may even fall below 80 mark in near term. Reports from UBS AG, Nomura Holdings and Bloomberg Economics suggest rupee will go down to 79-81 to a dollar over the next few months.

Nomura Holdings Inc. sees the local currency at 79 by end June, while Standard Chartered Plc also sees a similar level by the third quarter. In the previous session, the rupee closed unchanged against the US dollar in muted trade as participants largely stayed on the sidelines ahead of the RBI’s policy decision later this week.

08:54 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 Nifty will lack direction as key driver of sentiment hinges on RBI MPC outcome
Tracking overnight slump in US markets and subsequent fall in SGX Nifty, domestic equity markets in all probability will start on a weak note. Nifty will lack direction because the key driver of sentiment hinges on the RBI monetary policy outcome to trickle in on June 8. Commanding attention will also be Friday’s US CPI report when we will learn if price growth in the US has finally peaked. However, there is slight optimism in the air amidst the reopening of China’s economy and the said reopening that could give a boost to the global economy. Reports also suggest that daily Covid-19 cases are dropping significantly in China. Amidst this backdrop, metal stocks are likely to rise. We like Hindalco & Tata Steel with an interweek/intermonth perspective. Jindal Steel & Power could be a dark horse. Prashanth Tapse, Vice President (Research), Mehta Equities

We think Nifty could remain in the 16353-16696 band for the next few sessions. The 10-year US Treasury yield rose 8.2 basis points to 3.037% as investors await May’s consumer-price index report on Friday. Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities
08:42 (IST) 7 Jun 2022 MCX Crude oil June futures to hit Rs 9,500/bbl this week as EU bans Russian oil, China lifts COVID lockdown
Crude oil might continue the positive momentum amid strong fundamentals. Gasoline prices in the US notched record highs, owing to tight supplies and dwindling inventories amid the onset of the US driving season, while the OPEC+ meeting disappointed with modest output hike. OPEC+ increased the output for July, but in effect, we might not see actual addition of barrels into the market, as Russia was not exempted from the supply pact. Read full story

There are speculations that the central bank may go for at least 35 basis points (bps) hike over and above the 40 bps hike effected last month after an off-cycle MPC meeting. Market experts are estimating a bigger hike in interest rate as consumer price index (CPI) based retail inflation, which the Reserve Bank of India factors in while arriving at its monetary policy, galloped for a seventh straight month to touch an 8-year high of 7.79 per cent in April.
