Contents3 Overview

This month, we take a look at the chang-es in interest rates and exchange rates and their effects on TSE’s main index (TEDFIX). And also a proper look at major sectors such as Banking and Basic Metals.

6 StockTrade Value and Volume of TSE rose by 26 and 55 percent in January as inves-tors are regaining their confidence in the stock market. Pasargad Bank -one of the most liquid shares of the market- managed to almost double its trading volume during January.

10 FundMomtaz, Pishro and Pishtaz –all three managed by Mofid- are among the top 10 best mutual funds of January.

14 CommodityAlthough, the value of commodities traded on the IME rose by 11 percent in January compared to the previous month, the export ring trade value did not change significantly. As sugar starts to be traded on the IME, agricultural ring’s trade value rose by more than 60 percent during last month.

16 NewsThis section provides the most impor-tant news on Iran capital market special-ly exchanges for the month of January.

20 Special ReportPouya Finance Company (PFC) one of the best IT companies active in Iran capital market has recently launched their new product, Bourseview.com, which pro-vides market information in favorite for-mats to meet domestic and international investors’ needs.

The Grand Bazaar is a historical market situ-ated in the capital of Iran, Tehran. A bazaar is a type of marketplace, although many - such as Tehran’s Grand bazaar - fulfill many additional functions rather than merely trade. Throughout its history, the Grand bazaar has played host to banks and financiers, mosques and guest houses.

Contents OverviewTSE All Share Index (TEDPIX) rose as much as 6.5 percent in the first month of 2012; cap-ping the best performance in ten months. Though non-economic factors once again made the market volatile, the consequences especially in the banking sector eventually pushed the index higher. Furthermore, the improvement in the global financial markets positively affected the large-cap Basic Metals which also helped to offset some effects of psychological factors.

CMC Raises Interest RateIn January, and in response to volatility, the authority took new actions to fully ensure stability and regularity in the local markets.

Notably, on Jan 11 the Credit and Money Council (CMC) decided to raise interest rates. The CMC, which is responsible for setting monetary policies, announced that the inter-est rates should be set above the inflation. It

is said that high level of liquidity is likely to be the main reason behind the recent volatil-ity. So the decision was said to be necessary in order to direct liquidity back to the banks’ deposits.

On Jan 25, and after the president approved the CMC’s act, the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) notified the banks about the new package of monetary policies of which paved the way to raise interest rates on five years deposits up to 20 percent. Rates on one year deposits raised to 17 percent and the CBI let the banks com-pete on rates between these two durations.

CBI Fixes Exchange Rate at 12’260Later this month, the CBI decided to set the official exchange rate of the USD at 12’260 Ri-als. Now, the exchanges are allowed to make transactions in a band of 3 to 5 percent higher or lower from the official rate. The limit for hard currency is set at 1 percent. All decisions welcomed by the markets as they now expect lower volatility in asset prices.

Non-inflationary Growth in Housing SectorNormal growth in other sectors of the econ-omy also helped investors, especially those with high-risk profile, choose stocks among other asset classes.

Private reports from the housing sector show that prices increased by 20 percent from March to September from the same period last year. Nevertheless, the increase has been in line with inflation rate. Housing policies in recent years, of which stimulate the supply side, probably helped reduce speculations

and effectively prevent prices to unreasonably go higher.

Markets Warmly Welcome Higher Inter-est RatesIn January, the TEDPIX advanced in every week, touching 26,000 level for the first time in three months. Regardless of the level of uncertainty, the volatility in the other markets prompted actions by the policymakers that some believe it may benefit the economy.

Undoubtedly, the most remarkable action was the increase in the interest rates. At first, it may look like a contractionary policy but the headline does not tell the whole story.

In fact, the low interest rates for relatively long period of time resulted in a continu-ous reduction in the banks’ deposits; making them unable or reluctant to make commercial loans. This may explain why the rate increase,

if it takes the money back and helps the banks to recapitalize and start to make loans, could result in a better business environment.

Banks Get the Long-Awaited PackageAs it was expected, the banking sector was the first to attract investors who bet that the higher rates would eventually be reflected in the banks’ revenues. The rate increase was highly anticipated much earlier, mostly be-cause of the inflationary pleasures, though other factors made it unavoidable.

On January 4, just after the rate increase an-nouncement by the CMC, investors rushed to buy stocks of the banks and continued to buy in the following days. The index of banks rose 7.0 percent in January to become the third best performing among the main TSE sectors.

The index includes ten banks like Pasargad Bank [BPRT1], Mellat Bank [BMLT1],Parsian

OverviewBank [BPAR1], and Tejarat Bank [BTEJ1]. Based on the market capitalization, these banks make almost 19 percent (nearly USD 20 bil-lion) of the TSE.

Basic Metals Take Advantages of Global PricesAs it was mentioned earlier, the improvement in the global markets also contributed to the performance of the stock market. In January, copper prices rose 12.2 percent which, com-bined with the strengthening USD, helped raw material producers experience higher-than-average increase in their share prices.

Steel producers also rose as the domestic prices of steel bars passed the 10 Million Rials (820 USD) per ton on Jan 8. The uncertainty still remains high as the steel prices are very sensitive to the demand side which looks not in a very good shape. Nevertheless, the index of Basic Metals, which accounts for 17 percent of the TSE market cap, rose as much as 16.1 percent.

Other SectorsTSE listed chemicals meet expectations with 9.3 percent increase in their index. Investors remain optimistic as companies like the Isfah-an Oil Ref [PNES1] covered 80 percent of their year-end profit forecasts in just 9 months.

However, not all companies in the index of Chemicals were so attractive. There are small producers, like the producers of washing powders, who must wait to get approval for raising prices as they struggle with 10 to 15 increase on imported raw material because of

the strong dollar.

On the other hand, cement industry missed profit estimates while they should face more uncertainty from the housing market and infrastructure projects.

Vehicles declined as the speculations about any immediate price increase cooled. At the same time auto industry tries to get official support to reduce the costs of imported materials. Earlier this month, the CBI signaled that it may eliminate the role of currency ex-changes for the industry as they were accused of charging unreal prices in transactions.

Pharmaceuticals also declined in January. The industry heavily relies on imported mate-rials, so they are still waiting for help to import their needs at a favorable exchange rate.

CommentaryJanuary was a relatively good month for the Tehran Stock Exchange. Pishtaz fund ad-vanced 6.2 percent and was ranked the 10th among 61 mutual funds active in Iran capital market for the first month of 2012.

Pishtaz has significant positions in Iron Ore companies, copper and steel producers that all did well in January. Many of the natural resource companies, that price there products in hard currencies, have a relatively low P/E ra-tio of 4 to 5 and we are optimistic about their performance over the next 2 to 5 months.

Fund | Momtaz Mutual Fund

CommentaryIn January the main index (TEDPIX) advanced 6.2 percent and Momtaz fund advanced 9 percent and was the 5th best performer among 61 mutual funds active in the market.

Higher prices of commodities and natural resources as well as depreciation of Rial versus US Dollar were the most important factors that fueled higher prices for stocks of natural resource and commodities companies and contributed to the performance of Momtaz fund.

Also anticipations of the year-end annual meetings and dividends distributions over the next 2 to 5 months create a safety net that makes buying at current prices relatively attractive. Momtaz has a net cash position of roughly 10 percent of assets that we plan to put to use over the next 2 month.

CommentaryWith 8.8 percent return in January Pishro fund ranked 6th among all active mutual funds. Pishro has large positions in Chemicals & by-products sector. Roughly 10 percent of the fund is invested in Pardis Petrochemical Co (the largest producer of Urea in Iran) which had a remarkable performance in the first month of 2012.

Although non-economic factors are very important, we think that the market itself can do relatively well because, we believe, many of the natural resource and basic metal com-panies are still undervalued and are likely to rise because of the expectations of the year-end annual reports and dividends distribu-tions over the next months.

Tehran Stock Exchange leads MENA financial markets in 2011January 18, 2012

TEHRAN TIMES: While the stock markets of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region experienced a very poor year in 2011, Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) has witnessed an unprecedented growth of 30 percent in 2011, leading the financial markets of the region, a report of the Economist Group said.

The Economist Group in its new report entitled “Business Middle East: January 16th 2012” noted that Iran stock market flourished during 2011, simultaneously most of other stock markets of the region experienced negative growth.

With a few unrepresentative exceptions, MENA stock markets had a poor year in 2011, reflecting both the political turbulence across the region and the battering suffered by most global markets as a result of the euro zone crisis and the increasingly bearish outlook for the global economy, the report added.

The two outliers were Iraq and Iran, whose main indices both rose by just over 30%. However, the Iraqi performance is distorted by the tiny size of the Baghdad stock mar-ket, while the rise in stock prices in Iran was

heavily influenced by the placement of huge privatization shares, despite international sanctions. Besides Iran and Iraq, Qatar was the only country in the region to witness a rise in the main index, albeit by only 1%.

The overall performance was in stark con-trast to 2010 when most of the region’s mar-kets advanced strongly, with Jordan, Lebanon and Dubai the only ones to drop significantly.

Saudi Arabia’s stock market had another largely disappointing year, despite the strong performance of the economy as a whole, in particular by the non-oil private sector.

Elsewhere in the Persian Gulf there was more disappointment in Qatar, Abu Dhabi and Dubai as the MSCI decided in December to maintain its classification of frontier market for these bourses.
