Equity & MIP

Market UpdateEquity market experienced renewed optimism as the market indices BSE Sensex and Nifty inched closer to their historical highs. The Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) flows continued to be strong for the month and this trend helped to sustain the optimism. The second quarter FY 2013 - 14 corporate results have been a mixed bag till now, while some sectors like IT & Financials reported better than expected numbers. Inflation concerns were a top priority in the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) scheme of things as they raised the repo rate by 25 bps, the second consecutive rate hike though on expected lines. On the other hand, the RBI continued to unwind the measures adopted earlier to support INR, as the currency seemed to have found a stable level in the INR61-62/ USD range. The arrival of weaker data points from the US may provide credence to the delay expected in the US Federal Reserve’s Quantitative Easing(QE) tapering plans. India was a key beneficiary of fund flows during October 2013 as the global investors were buoyed by the fact that Fed Reserve’s liquidity tap may not see an abrupt end in the near term.

Market indices BSE Sensex and Nifty surged during the month of October 2013, gaining 9.2% and 9.8% respectively. Amongst the BSE sectoral indices, Bankex & Capgoods were the notable outperformers delivering monthly gains of 19.4% and 18.8% respectively, while the defensive sectors like FMCG & Healthcare underperformed the market.Strong FII flows were one of the reasons for the renewed optimism seen in the equity market during October 2013. FIIs continued to be net buyers for the month with net inflows of USD 2.9 bn (cash segment) and the YTD FII net inflow tally now stands at USD 16.3 bn. The Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) remained firmly on the other side of the trade net selling equities worth USD 2 bn during the month. On a YTD basis, DIIs have so far net sold equities worth USD 10.3 bn.The trade deficit data for September 2013 came in better at ~ USD 6.76 bn versus ~ USD 10.91 bn reported in August 2013. India’s imports for the month of September 2013 fell 18% Year on Year (YoY) due to sharp decline in the Gold & Silver imports as well as 5.9% YoY decline in the Oil imports. Exports on the other hand rose 11% YoY to USD 27.68 bn. The trends of a reduction in trade deficit is a key positive as under the present run rate, the Current Account Deficit (CAD) may well be managed more efficiently and also likely to be significantly lower than the estimates at the start of the fiscal. The INR, which had provided pain points to the economy during August -September 2013, seemed to stabilize around the USD 61/62 mark and that supported the RBI to reverse some of the tightening measures announced earlier aimed at arresting the currency depreciation.

Inflation & Industrial Growth

No respite on the Inflation front

The headline inflation as reported under the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) continued to remain elevated as it increased further at 6.5% for September 2013 (vs. 6.1% YoY for August). Food inflation remained the main contributor to the price rise at 18%, due to runaway vegetable prices. The core inflation however remained within a comfortable range at 2%. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation also bore the brunt of the higher vegetable prices as it inched up to record 9.8% for Sep (YoY vs. 9.5% in August).

IIP growth disappoints

India’s factory output data measured using the Index of Industrial production (IIP) reported a sluggish growth of 0.6% for August 2013 (YoY vs. 2.8% in July). The expectations of a decent rise in growth were high given the rebound seen in July 2013, however de-growth in the manufacturing segment impacted the overall reading negatively. The mining segment reduced further and didn’t show signs of growth returning anytime soon there.

Global Economic Scenario

Weak USD data hint at a delayed Fed tapering plan

The Federal government shutdown in the US was resolved closer to the deadline date but that couldn’t avoid 16 days of uncertainty. The resolution included key provisions such as funding window for the government till mid-January 2014, while the debt ceiling limit was extended till first week of February 2014. It also provided flexibility to the US treasury to utilize extraordinary financing measures and that would be handy during the treasury outflow season in 1Q Calendar Year (CY) 2014. On the other hand sluggish October 2013 data releases in the US supported the opinion of a likely delay in the QE tapering plans by the Federal Reserve. The US industrial growth data was subdued, while the pay-rolls data also appeared weak and this somewhat supported the arguments in favour of a delayed tapering decision by the Federal Reserve. Overall, a tapering delay assumes positive significance for emerging markets such as India as the global liquidity is expected to remain strong in the near term.

Going ForwardOctober 2013 saw the market indices of BSE Sensex & Nifty trading near their all-time highs, while the broader market is yet to reach the levels seen more than 5 years ago. The market indices may be trading at higher levels scaled during 2008 on an absolute basis, but on a time and earnings adjusted basis we may be some time away from the real peak. Market participants were buoyed by the likely Fed tapering delay and the FII flows continued to support these sentiments. These aspects coupled with relative improvement in domestic factors such as better than expected delivery on the CAD front added to the overall optimism. Also, on the other hand the inflation over growth commentary of the RBI and the recent repo hikes failed to dent the optimism of the investors. Equity market may remain range bound in the near term provided there are no adverse news flows globally and domestic factors remain as anticipated. Five Indian states are going into assembly polls between November and December 2013. The poll outcome in these states may be perceived as a strong indication of the voter preferences ahead of the Lok Sabha election in May 2014. So the assembly polls may be looked at as electoral mood monitor ahead of the general elections in 2014, the eventual outcome of which may determine the direction of the market for some time. As stated earlier, despite the market indices at all time high levels, there is still a gap in valuations across stocks and sectors. An efficient bottom up stock picking strategy may help to identify those profitable companies trading at reasonable valuations. HSBC’s investment process seeks to identify those companies that fall in this valuation mis-match territory. We urge investors to remain invested in equities and employ the systematic investment plan (SIP) route to invest in a disciplined and regular manner. We remain firm believers in India’s growth story with a long term perspective and should not be overly perturbed by the near term volatility.Source: Bloomberg, for all data except where mentioned otherwise

Debt

Market Assessment

Domestic bond markets were largely range bound during the month and were minimally impacted by repo hike announcement in recently concluded Monetary policy review Onset of a month which will see large supply of Government securities (G-Secs) and higher than expected core sector numbers (comprising eight infrastructure industries) led to a weak closing. After being trading in a tight range at 8.55% – 8.60% levels, benchmark ten year G-Sec yields opened the week at 8.70% in the new month.

RBI’s Monetary Policy, Economic Events and Data

Policy in line with market expectation

Second Quarter Review of Monetary Policy • Repo rate (rate at which the RBI lends to banks), increased by 25 bps to 7.75% • Marginal Standing Facility rate (MSF) – rate at which banks can borrow from RBI over and above the repo rate - reduced by 25 bps to 8.75%.

In line with market expectations, the RBI hiked the repo rates by 25 bps. In order to curb volatility in domestic currency (INR), the RBI had announced series of measures over the past few months. Recent stability in the INR seem to have contributed to the roll-back of these measures. These include reduction in marginal standing facility (MSF) rate by 25 basis points from 9.00% to 8.75% with immediate effect.

Domestic Markets: Industrial activity has weakened, with a reduction in consumer durables and –slow growth in capital goods reflecting the ongoing decline in both consumption and investment demand. Strengthening export growth and signs of revival in some services, along with the expected pick-up in agriculture, could support an increase in growth in the second half of financial year (FY) 2013-14 relative to the first half, raising real GDP growth from 4.4% in the first quarter to a central estimate of 5.0% for the year as a whole.

IIP continues to remain volatile

Inflation inches up further

Index of Industrial Production (IIP) surprised sharply on the downside, registering 0.6% growth in August 2013 after registering a growth of 2.8% in July 2013. Even excluding the volatile capital goods, IIP grew only 1.0% in August 2013.

Headline wholesale inflation came in at 6.46% Year on Year (YoY) in September 2013, versus previous month’s 6.10% YoY. Primary inflation increased on account of elevated food inflation at 18.4%. While supply disruptions have led to the sharp rise, impact of good monsoon is yet to be seen. Fuel inflation declined to 10.1% as against prior reading of 11.3% amidst a favorable base effect. Manufactured products inflation increased to 2.0%. Consumer Price Index (CPI) was higher than expectations at 9.84%. Higher index was contributed by higher service costs apart from increase in food pricesThe RBI expects Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation and CPI inflation to remain range-bound around current levels (of ~6.5% and 9.8% respectively), above its comfort zone, over the next six months.

Market Activity

Repo hike was largely priced in

G-Sec market remained range bound during the month as bond related data presented mixed signals. Higher inflation resulted in a rapid selling of securities as the market started expecting another rate hike in 2nd quarter monetary policy review. However the levels were contained on the back of limited supply during the month. Rate hike announcement in the policy didn’t impact the market as cut in MSF rate and increase in term repo limit resulted in overall reduction in borrowing cost.

Limited supply in corporate bonds

Corporate bond yields also remained largely range bound as limited supply took off the pressure created by rate hike. Further, higher inflow through Foreign Currency Non Resident (FCNR) deposits and overseas borrowing kept the short term yields supported.

Liquidity eases further

Money market rates continued to drift lower expecting further relaxation in liquidity measures. The RBI reduced MSF rate by 50 bps to 9% on 8 October 2013 and induced liquidity into the market by introducing 7 day & 14 day term repo to the tune of 0.25% of Net Demand and Time Liabilities (NDTL). Money market rates continued to remain buoyant on back of further liquidity measures announced in the policy.

Global Economic Scenario

Global economy

The US congress was finally able to extend the debt-ceiling deadline to 7 February 2014. This removes the threat of default and reopens the US government, after a 16 day partial shutdown. The agreement provides spending authority through January 15, 2014 at the spending level that was in effect prior to the shutdown.Economic data releases post re-opening of the government continued to remain below consensus and cumulative weakness over the past couple of months has resulted in market expectation of further delay in liquidity tapering process. Foreign Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement released during the month was largely a replica of the statement released in the month of September 2013. Overall assessment of the economy was largely unchanged and future of tapering continues to remain dependent upon improvement in labor market conditions and inflation.

Going ForwardRecent stability in the foreign exchange markets has been derived from the postponement of tapering in debt ceiling, calm in the Middle East region coupled with the policy responses on the external front; ensuing favorable implications on the current account deficit (CAD). As early signs of stability surfaced in the foreign exchange markets, the RBI has gradually restored the exceptional measures introduced earlier this month.

As overnight rates are lowered, short term yields might get positively impacted. Short end of the curve may also gain to benefit from the increased inflows received vide the swap facility introduced by the RBI. As the outlook for the inflation continues to remain elevated, further measures to anchor inflation expectations cannot be ruled out. This might thwart a significant downside move in the longer term yields especially considering the heavy supply of G-Secs scheduled in the month of November 2013.

Easing liquidity conditions may provide further support to the short term yields whilst protecting the upside risk to long term yields. As we embark on a busy election season following the festive season, measures to ease liquidity conditions might provide much needed comfort.

As upside risks to inflation persist in the near term and considering the RBI’s re-iteration to safeguard the economy by anchoring inflation expectations, we endeavor to remain neutral on duration whilst favoring the short – medium term segment.
