GDP recorded 7.1% growth in Q2FY19.
The Indian economy grew at 7.1% YoY during Q2FY19 vs. the consensus estimate of 7.4%. During
Q1FY19 GDP grew at 8.2% YoY. This indicates growth is on track to roughly meet RBI estimate of 7.4%
growth for the entire fiscal year.
The Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) increased by 12.5% YoY during Q2FY19 as compared to
6.1% during Q2FY18. We expect the capex spending to lead growth on the back of higher capacity
utilization which recorded 73.8% in Q1FY19 vs. 71.2% in Q1FY18. The rolling 4-quarter average indeed
indicates an upward trend. Private Final Consumption Expenditure grew by 7%.
Manufacturing improved by 7.4% in Q2FY19 as compared to 7.1% in Q2FY18, while lower than 13.5% YoY
growth of last quarter it indicates good momentum.
Bank credit growth accelerated in September 2018 where private sector banks recorded more than
20% growth. The credit-deposit (C-D) ratio at the all-India level improved to 76.4%in September 2018
as compared to 75.6% in the previous quarter. Also, the PMI index remained well above the 50-mark in
the last nine months, indicating better economic activity.
High-frequency indicators such as automobile sales’ volume grew by 11% YoY during Q2FY19, whereas,
commercial vehicles grew by 38%. This is indicative of higher Private Final Consumption Expenditure
(PFCE) which grew at 7.0% YoY during Q2FY19 as compared to 6.8% in Q2FY18. Construction recorded
growth of 7.8% in Q2FY19 which is indicative of the growth in production of cement and finished steel
consumption at 12.5% and 7.2%, respectively.
Therefore, we expect the GDP growth momentum to keep pace on the back of higher personal
consumption indicated by increasing bank credit. Risks to the outlook are largely on account of the
external sector, the lagged impact of currency depreciation and uncertain political outlook.
GDP Fine Print
Agriculture improved by 3.8% YoY in Q2FY19 as compared to 5.3% in Q1FY19. Mining and Quarrying
declined by (2.4%). Manufacturing improved by 7.4% in Q2FY19 vs. 13.5% in Q1FY19. Construction
growth is stable at 7.8% this quarter vs. 8.7% in Q1FY19. Public services improved by 10.9% in Q2FY19
vs. 9.9% in Q1FY19. Indicators of Railways sector, namely, Net Tonne Km and Passenger Km have grown
by 6.9% and 2.2%, respectively, during Q2FY19. Electricity, Gas, Water Supply and Other Utility Services
sector grew by 9.2% as compared to 7.7% in Q2FY18. This is indicative of IIP Electricity which improved
by 7.5% as compared to 6.1% in Q2FY18.

Sunteck Realty Ltd CMP Rs.337Target Price Rs.497Upside 47%
Investment Rationale
• The company has carved a niche for itself in the ultra-luxury and luxury segment by differentiating itself in each micro-market through brand positioning with a different product offering. While the projects in BKC are residential projects catering to ultimate luxury and premium customers, ODC project is a mixed-use development project with residential, commercial and retail space. A significant amount of operating cash flow of Rs. 31 bn is expected to be realized from these two projects in 3-4 years.
• The company has launched its affordable housing project on 100 acres of land parcel at Naigaon. The pricing is quite affordable considering the fact that Mumbai has always been a premium residential market.
• The company has already sold ~2000 units worth more than Rs. 600 cr (out of 2476 units) units during the launch of the project in September.
• Since last few quarters, the company has experienced healthy growth in pre-sales and it delivered ~100% YoY growth in pre-sales in H1FY19 (Rs. 6027 mn pre-sales in H1FY19 as compared to Rs. 2976 mn in H1FY18) due to the overwhelming response to the first phase of Naigaon project.

Tata ElxsiCMP Rs.1029Target Price Rs.1208Upside 17.4%
Company Background
Tata Elxsi was formed in 1989 as an Indian arm to US-based Elxsi to manufacture multi processor-based computers locally. Today it is amongst the leading global providers of design and technology services for product engineering and solutions across industries, including Broadcast, Communications and Automotive.
Investment Rationale
• We believe Tata Elxsi is well positioned to benefit from the technological shift in the auto industry. While its auto division will benefit from opportunities created by the emergence of autonomous car and electric vehicle, its communication and broadcasting division will benefit from 5G and software-defined networks (SDN).
• We are positive about the potential of its IP-based offerings, including Autonomai and FalconEye for auto and broadcasting segments, respectively. Its design services division is also gaining traction as visible from the latest deal announced with Panasonic.
• Our positive stance on the company also comes from management’s objective to internally target 10% sequential QoQ growth and its objective to maintain 24%-25% margins at EBITDA level.

Stock Exchange BSE
ValuationWe believe that TELX with its focus on IP-based solutions and other offerings in the areas of auto infotainment, autonomous vehicle and with IPs like FalconEye is in the right direction to achieving higher growth rates. This coupled with management’s focus on achieving 10% sequential quarterly revenue growth rate and maintaining margins of 24-25% at EBITDA level would augur well for the investors. We value TELX at a 5-year historical average (ex-standard deviation of 7.4) FY20E PE of 21.8 with a “BUY” and a target price of Rs. 1208.

On the momentum setup, 60-period weekly CCI is plotting above its zero line, indicating an underlying bullishness in the index. However, we may expect a subdued movement in the index if it falls below the 26,600 levels.
NIFTY AUTO (9270.20) underperformed Nifty 50 index on the weekly basis, however, ended the week on a positive note with over 2.20% of gains. This was majorly due to the bounce in the heavyweight counters like MARUTI, M&M, HEROMOTOCO, BAJAJ-AUTO and ASHOKLEY which surged around 3.20%, 6%, 4.70%, 5.80% and 2.50%, respectively, while TATAMOTORS, EICHERMOT and BHARATFORG were the major losers from the same universe which plunger around 5.50%, 3% and 3.10%, respectively, on a weekly basis. Technically, the index has seen a relief rally after two consecutive weeks of the bear run. The support zone of 9000 levels played a crucial role and reversed the trend for the index. On the daily chart, the stock is still placed below all its major moving average and the upside may be expected near to the unfilled gap placed around 9350-9400 levels, which would play a crucial role for resisting the index. On the weekly chart, 14 periods RSI is on the verge to witness short-term rally as it has been placed near the oversold zone, suggesting trend reversal in the counter. The immediate support for the index is placed around 9000 levels followed by 8850 levels, while on the contrary the resistance is pegged around 9350-9400 levels followed by 9600 levels. For the coming week, stock specific action can be seen as sales figure will be out from 1st December. Hence, it is advisable to trade cautiously in the counter and to look for stock specific action.
NIFTY METAL (3163.75) index ended the week on a negative note by more than 1.5% and also made lower low and lower high for the week. The index has also broken its previous major swing lows and closed below it, indicating a probable start of the fresh leg of down move into the index. However, over last three days, the index moved into a range, suggesting a halt of decline in the index from a very short-term perspective. The index is also sustaining well below its all major short-term moving averages, depicting the ongoing downtrend is likely to persist. On the indicator front, the index is oversold and is likely to trade in a range for near term. Ongoing into the internals, the breadth of the index is weak, with more than 50% stocks ending in negative, which also adds to the likely weakness into the index. Major stocks which lost most during the week are ferrous metals like Jindalstel, Sail, Tatasteel, and others like Coalindia, Hindcopper, Jslhisar, Jswsteel, and Vedl also witnessed cracks during the week. On the flip side, stocks like HINDALCO, HINDZINC, NATIONALUM, APLAPOLLO and NMDC have ended in positive zone. Even on the derivative front also, most of the stocks have not seen any major rollovers also suggesting participants expect muted action for near term. Technically, immediate supports for the NIFTY METAL index are pegged around 3080-3100 followed by 3030-3050. Whereas on the upside, immediate resistances are pegged around 3225-3250 followed by 3300-3325. Going forward, we expect the index to trade sideways in the range of 3100 to 3250 with a negative bias.
JUBILANT FOODWORKS LTD: BUY JUBLFOOD (DEC FUTURE) | CMP: 1256.70 SECTOR: FMCG
JUBLFOOD’s weekly chart structure clearly indicates the formation of higher tops and higher bottoms for the past few weeks. The stock gained around 4% during the previous week, in line with the broader markets with reasonable price volume activity, thereby suggesting build up of long positions in the counter during the first week of the December 2018 series. As far as technical parameters on weekly time frame are concerned, the RSI (50.78) is currently placed above the RSI Avg (46.44), hinting at a possible upside towards Rs.1320-1325 is very likely as there is enough room for the stock to perform on the upside. The ADX (34.30) on the other hand is also comfortably placed for the bullish setup seen on the weekly charts of JUBLFOOD as the DMI+ (20.50) is pointing upwards. The stock has an immediate hurdle around Rs.1270-1275 crossing which a sharp rally towards the target may be seen. On the other hand, the supports are pegged around Rs.1220-1200, breaking which the bullish setup could get negated. Hence, we recommend smart traders to go long as per the levels mentioned above.

CASTROL INDIA LIMITED: SELL CASTROLIND (DEC FUTURE) | CMP: 151.75 SECTOR: AUTO-ANCL
CASTROLIND managed to close with gains of 1.44% on a weekly closing basis, underperforming the broader markets. The stock price, after witnessing technical pullback towards 160 levels, failed to sustain at higher levels and succumbed to pressure in the last two sessions of the week, while in the last session, the stock lost over 3%. Technically, the stock price is holding below its major 200-DEMA which is currently placed near 165 levels, while holding marginally above its 21 & 50-DEMA. On the momentum setup, 14-pd RSI consolidated near 60-levels in the last couple of sessions, while in the last sessions indicator witnessed bearish crossover of its signal line exhibiting underlying weakness in the counter, since bulls failed to utilize recent pullback and bears took over the control. Hence, we recommend Smart Trader to initiate a short position on the bounce towards 154 levels for the target of 141, keeping a stop loss above 163 levels.
KSTREET - 01ST DECEMBER 2018 6
WEEKLY VIEW OF THE MARKET
NIFTY (10,876.75): Nifty zoomed past the psychological 10,900 mark but managed to shut shop just shy of the said level to settle at 10,876.75, higher by 3.32%. A surge in buying activity due to revived positive sentiment pulled the markets higher significantly during the last week. Going into the next week, we expect the positive momentum to continue even as data pertaining to Monthly Auto Sales Data will be released today (1st December 2018) and outcome of RBI’s Monetary Policy will be announced on 5th December 2018. The Group of 20 Summit is on, as leaders from across the globe have gathered in Argentina to discuss the global economy and security, shadowed by increased tensions stoked by the US President Donald Trump’s trade war. Leaders from across the globe are set to meet each other and discuss key issues during this two-day G-20 summit which concludes today. Trump’s planned meetings with a half-dozen other world leaders will be keenly watched by many investors. However, most of the attention will be drawn by the important meeting between two leaders in particular: US President Donald Trump and China’s President Xi Jinping, who are most likely going to discuss de-escalating their battle over trade, which has given jitters to the entire global economy in the recent past. Coming back to the Indian markets, technically, Nifty is placed around the upper end of the resistance zone of 10,850-109,00. Though Nifty index has been trading in a positive manner for the past few sessions, chances of a throwback remain as we continue moving higher towards 11,000-11,100. This could prove to be the immediate near term hurdle for the index, crossing which Nifty can accelerate its upmove towards 11,150-11,200 in the days to come. Among important macroeconomic data which came out on Friday, India’s economy slowed to 7.1% in the July-September quarter of the year from 8.2% in the previous quarter on the back of a sharp drop in manufacturing, agriculture and mining activities, as per data released by government agencies. The GDP has clearly shown its lowest growth rate in as many as three years. Having said that, India still remains the world’s fastest-growing major economy across the globe. Considering the above mentioned macroeconomic data point, Nifty index is likely to witness immediate support around 10,800-10,750. The second level of meaningful support is pegged around 10,700-10,650 levels. This week, we expect the Nifty to move in a range of 10,600-11,200 with a possibility of moving higher or lower by 100-150 odd points in either direction depending on the overall market sentiment. Having already discussed Nifty’s presence around the upper end of the trading band, we continue with our approach of recommending traders to buy on dips in a disciplined manner and exit leveraged positions if the immediate support zone mentioned above is not held on a sustainable basis.

COMMODITIES
BULLIONGold market witnessed a range bound trend in the international market during the week ended on 30th November 2018. Market participants took a cautious approach during the week ahead of G20 meeting in Argentina over the weekend. Range bound movement in the dollar index kept the price of yellow metal in a narrow range. COMEX gold futures are heading for a second straight month of gains in November. During the week, major economic releases were advanced GDP estimates for the third quarter, which came at 3.5% same as that of previous reading. Another data was goods trade balance; wherein, the trade deficit widened to USD -77.2 billion for November against the previous reading of USD -76.3 billion. Further, the release of recent FOMC meeting minutes on Thursday was watched closely for Fed’s stance on interest rate; wherein most of the officials vowed for a gradual interest rate hike. However, the market was put in the dark with varying comments from US Fed chairman and vice chairman during the week regarding interest rate decisions. In the G20 meeting, the US and Chinese leaders are scheduled to discuss trade matters. The US trade restrictions have hit a total of $369 bn of Chinese exports this year, much higher than the $278 bn of goods impacted by tariffs alone. The gold price movement in the Indian market was completely different. MCX gold and silver futures tumbled during the week, despite the steady trend in the international market. Sharp appreciation in Indian Rupee against US Dollar led to a decline in the Indian market.
ENERGY COMPLEXCrude oil prices traded sideways mostly buoyed towards downside as swelling US supplies and growing production kept the prices in check. Although the prices breathed easy in the week as the market expected OPEC & Russia to agree on production cuts. In the major developments this week, Russia has shown a positive conviction for the reduction in oil output with OPEC but is still bargaining with the producer group’s leader, Saudi Arabia, over the timing and volume of any reduction. The market is, moreover, focused on the interactions of the US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at this weekend’s G20 meeting for the discussion over the global oil prices. Suggesting in a slowdown of demand for refined products, Asian gasoil exports for November have been assessed around 7.0 mn metric tons (mt), down from the year-to-date (YTD) monthly average of about 8.9 mn mt, with nearly 6.5 mn mt accounted for so far. As per EIA, US crude oil inventories increased by 3.6 mn bbl for the week ended Nov. 23 and are about 7% above the 5-year average for this time of year. Total motor gasoline inventories decreased by 800,000 bbl and are about 5% above the 5-year range. Distillate fuel inventories increased by 2.6 mn bbl last week and are about 6% below the 5-year average for this time of year. In the coming week, OPEC and non-OPEC members will meet in Vienna, Austria on 6th December to discuss a new round of production cuts of 1 mn to 1.4 mn barrels per day (bpd) and possibly more. The following decrease in the global supplies will force the oil market toward the verge of balancing although the market is expected to balance by the first half of 2019; still, the prices will have short-term positivity.
BASE METALSWith developing concerns over the dollar index prices and happenings at G-20 meetings base metal traded on a negative for the first two days of the week and later revived during the third session after the Fed Chair said that the interest rate hike had come to a near close and if there were any hikes then the economy must increase its borrowing costs which shall divert the investments into higher return earning assets rather than commodities. Shanghai Aluminium sunk to the lowest prices in two years to 13,590 Yuan a ton as staling manufacturing growth compounded plentiful supply amid relatively lenient winter output curbs. Also, on Thursday Chile’s Codelco, the world’s largest copper producer, said that mine output fell 3% in the first nine months of the year as ore grades sharply declined. Its mines produced 1.2 mn tons of copper, with ore grades down 5% over the same period. Nickel made a low of $10,720 per ton during the week pressured by the dollar price variances. The intensifying trade war between the United States and China is largely to blame, as it has flooded the market with low-cost Aluminium, much of which found its way to India’s shores. In addition, the quarter witnessed a jump in fake semis from China and ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) countries, rising by 13 times in the quarter to a total of 66 thousand metric tons. Based on numbers from July through September quarter, Hindalco Industries, Vedanta Ltd., and National Aluminium Company saw overall domestic sales improve by a scant 3.56%. During the same quarter, demand for aluminium jumped by 16% on the year, totaling 847 thousand metric tons. Consumption of Aluminium also rose in the quarter, up 14% on the year to 1.6 million metric tons.
OILS & OILSEEDSSoybean futures are expected to trade on a mixed note could keep bias on the positive side due to improved industrial demand in the physical market. Moreover, slower pace of arrivals and improved export prospects of meals is also supporting soybean prices at futures platform. Daily arrivals of soybean have been hovering in a range of 7-9 lakh bags since last 2 weeks as farmers are holding their produce in anticipation of further rise in prices. However, higher production outlook for India as well as for the world could restrict major gains. Likewise, RM seed futures are expected to trade sideways to lower due to slack demand in the physical market. Adequate supply at key trading centers and accelerating sowing progress in major growing states could weigh on prices coming days. The area under mustard seed cultivation has touched 59.15 lakh hectares as against 57.89 lakh hectares during the corresponding period in the previous rabi season, higher by 4.29% YoY. Similarly, Soy ref futures could slip further on weaker demand outlook against adequate supply levels. Apart from that prices could track strengthening the value of Indian currency against the US dollar index which is making import cheaper in India. Likewise, CPO futures are expected to trade down in anticipation of a rise in inventory levels in Malaysia and Indonesia. Malaysia’s palm oil stockpiles at the end of October.
COTTONMCX cotton futures are expected to trade sideways to down in the upcoming week in expectation of a rise in arrivals due to better price realization to farmers. Kapas prices are ruling much higher to the MSP level hovering near about Rs.5600 -5900 per quintal level at key trading centers. Apart from that, the market may track cues from strengthening the value of Indian currency against the US dollar making export more costly for Indian traders. Limited overseas demand of Indian fiber, resulting with increased price disparity could affect overall export from India and repercussion of the same could be seen on prices in near term. Indian currency appreciated further and ruling near about 69.7 levels on Friday. However, losses in cotton prices are likely to be limited due to weaker production outlook. Cotton Association of India estimated total cotton production for the year 2018-19 at 343.25 lakh bales, lower by 1.4% as compared to the prior year. Ministry of Agriculture projected cotton production for the year 2018-19 at 324.83 lakh bales in its first advance estimates against the 348.88 lakh bales of the prior year, lower by 7% YoY. Overall arrivals for the year 2018-19 has been lower by about 30% due to lower yield realization in Maharashtra and Karnataka. About 41 lakh bales of cotton arrived till mid-November, since starting of the marketing year 2018-19 commenced in October 2018; wherein about 58 lakh bales arrived during the same period in prior year. Meanwhile, prices may track cues from the outcome of G-20 meet where the US and China could try to resolve their trade dispute. Meanwhile, USDA released its weekly export sales data for the week ending on 22nd November showed net sales of 176,800 RB for 2018/2019 were down 16% from the previous week, but up noticeably from the prior 4-week average. Exports of 126,100 RB were down 16% from the previous week and 4% from the prior 4-week average.
SPICESCardamom futures continued their trade in sideways to positive trend during the week. Prices breached major resistance of Rs. 1520 levels to hit Rs. 1550/kg but failed to sustain the gains on profit booking. Decline in production in the current season due to adverse weather conditions will result in lower supplies at the spot auctions in coming days. Further, plantations in Guatemala, the largest producer has reported having been affected by the volcano. Hence, we expect cardamom futures to trade on a positive note. Turmeric futures traded in a range bound levels; however, sharp gains on the last day of the week resulted in prices pausing their 4-week fall. Prices traded lower initially dragging the loss to a multi-month low of Rs. 6250/quintal; however, recovered well to close above last week’s close. Despite higher crop estimates on the back of the higher area, drought conditions in few major states may affect yield levels. Hence, we expect turmeric futures to trade in a positive note for the week. Jeera futures noted sharp fall during the week extending loss to four weeks in a row. Expectations of the area under jeera to improve after support from government continued to weigh prices. As per the latest data, sowing in Gujarat is completed in 122,200 hectares of land that was 1914 hectares last year during the corresponding period. We expect jeera futures to trade in a negative note for the week. Dhaniya futures traded in a range with a positive bias during the week. Prices traded down initially extending loss on extended profit booking. However, the prices recovered to trade higher on expectations of the lower area under dhaniya as farmers may shift to other crops supported gains. Progress is also slow in the major growing states without required moisture for the sowing activities. As per latest data, sowing in Gujarat is completed in 7600 hectares of land which was 35700 hectares last year during the corresponding period and yet to start in full pace in other two major growing states of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

NEWS DIGEST
• China’s official Purchasing Managers’ Index fell to 50 in November, missing market expectations and down from 50.2 in October. The 50-point mark is considered neutral territory, indicating no growth in activity or contraction on a monthly basis.
• One of the world’s major oil contracts, New York’s WTI, slumped under $50 per barrel on Thursday, reaching the lowest level in nearly 14 months. WTI and Brent North Sea crude, another benchmark contract, have been tumbling for weeks on fears of a supply glut, despite oil kingpin, Saudi Arabia planning an output cut and urging other producers to follow suit.
• Gold prices firmed up on Thursday as the dollar faltered following dovish comments from US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, calming investor concerns over the pace of rate hikes.
• Australian miner Fortescue Metals this week said the latest developments in satellite imagery are helping it scour vast swathes of its backyard for new deposits, seeking an edge as it jostles with global peers for the next big strike. The world’s fourth-largest iron ore miner raised its exploration rights in South Australia by a third this year, data compiled from the state government by McMahon Mining Title Services Pty Ltd. and reviewed by Reuters show.
• Rabi sowing in 2018-19 is almost half-way done and 46% of the normal sown area (five-year average) has been covered by last week. Due to the late start to the harvesting of Kharif crop and thereby, delay in sowing of the Rabi crops, total Rabi sown area is reported 7.31% (by November 23, 2018) lower in 2018-19 compared to the corresponding period last year.
• The U.S. administration is moving to moderate its steel trade tariffs, but countries in Europe and beyond are loath to lower protections for their steelmakers as long as the US-China trade tensions prevail. Since slapping 25% tariffs on all the US steel imports in March, Washington has struck deals with countries including South Korea, Argentina, Brazil and South Africa to end the tariffs in exchange for import quotas.
WEEKLY COMMENTARY
• Oil prices slipped further on Friday as swelling inventories depressed sentiment despite widespread expectations that OPEC and Russia would agree on some form of production cut next week. Both international oil benchmarks, North Sea Brent and the US light crude, have had their weakest month for more than 10 years in November, losing more than 20% as global supply has outstripped demand.
• China’s soybean tariffs, which have virtually halted purchases of the US soybeans that last year totaled $12 billion, came in retaliation for Trump’s duties on Chinese steel and aluminum. That left US farmers and grains merchants with huge inventories of soybeans because China typically buys 60% of US soy exports. Grains companies have had to adapt quickly to keep massive volumes of perishable goods moving at the lowest possible cost.
• China’s 2018 cotton output is estimated to come in at 6.07 million tons, down 0.9% from the previous year, according to a report issued by China National Cotton Information Center Ltd Co. Xinjiang, China’s top cotton-producing region, was expected to produce 5.13 million tons of the fibre this year, according to data from China Cotton Association.
• Meanwhile, USDA released its weekly export sales data for the week ending 22nd Nov showed net sales of 176,800 RB of cotton for 2018/2019 were down 16% from the previous week, but up noticeably from the prior 4-week average. Exports of 126,100 RB were down 16% from the previous week and 4% from the prior 4-week average.

12KSTREET - 01ST DECEMBER 2018
USD/INR
USDINR opened the past week above 70.17, a major support level and breached it in the middle of the week ending at week lows of 69.59. 69.50-69.80 acts as a support zone in the pair, which if breached will take the pair further down till 68.80, the 50% Fibonacci retracement support. With the current downward momentum that the pair has gained, it seems that the pair is heading towards its major supports of 68.80 which was earlier multiple resistance levels. This coming week, if USDINR manages to rally above 70.20, we could see further upside in the pair, else it shall witness a free fall to test 68.80 in the next few sessions. This week shall be important with a lot of events globally and the 5-state elections domestically. This week, USDINR would be more a fundamentally driven pair and other INR pairs shall follow USDINR blindly. Technically, the pair appears oversold, but still would be sent under pressure even if we see a minor bounce. 70.30 could be used to initiate shorts for this week with stops above 70.70.
EUR/INR
EURINR has been depreciating continuously since mid-October and there are no signs of any halt in the pair, where it could breathe for a while. Weak fundamentals of the Eurozone are hitting the Euro hard. EURINR this past Friday tested the 38.2% Fibo support, but the chances for the pair to find support are close to nil. The RSI-Bollinger combination indicates that the pair is oversold and is not sufficient and efficient enough to provide support to the pair as the 8-13-20 EMAs, the bearish Parabolic SAR, are gradually developing thick bearish Ichimoku cloud. The formations are strong enough to negate any upward move in the pair. This week one can initiate shorts in the pair at levels close to 80 for targets close to 78.80.
GBP/INR
The Apr 2017 to Oct 2018 rally in GBPINR has already faded and the prices have retraced up to 50% as shown by the Fibonacci retracements. Next major support in the pair lies at 86.85 which is 61.8% Fibo retracement support level. GBPINR, after making a high of 98.51, has continuously been under pressure due to the never-ending Brexit scenario. The bearish 8-13-20 Exponential Moving Average crossover along with Ichimoku- Parabolic SAR combination clearly indicate that the pair is no sooner gaining upward momentum and will continue to take hits southward. Though this huge downfall demands minor corrective moves, it isn’t necessarily essential for the currency to behave likewise. This week, one can expect the pair to drop down up to 87.80 but is advised to initiate shorts on corrections from prevailing rates.
JPY/INR
JPYINR Spot has managed to hold above 60.50 throughout the year 2018 when it had breached the same in mid-February. After trading between 60.50-62.50 for almost 4 months from mid-February to mid-July, JPYINR breached 62.50 in the upside to rise higher up to 66.50 and last week is the first time it has again penetrated 62.50 in the downside and is now approaching its long-term support of 60.50, which also happens to be the bullish Ichimoku cloud support in the weekly charts. The daily charts, however, indicate that the pair would most probably test 60.50 soon and would then consolidate for a while. The RSI-Bollinger band combination suggests the pair is oversold and might witness a little of recovery if at all it sustains 60.50. An emerging bearish Ichimoku cloud, however, indicates that the pair will continue to be under pressure this coming week. The Parabolic SAR supports the said view. 61.15, which is the 50% Fibonacci support level might act as interim support this week. It is advised to initiate longs between 60.50 & 61.15 with a stop below 60.20 for a target of 62.00 & 62.50.
TECHNICAL RECOMMENDATIONMARKET STANCE
Global markets are trading cautiously as Trump is set to meet Chinese President Xi on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Argentina over the weekend, but he denied to meet Putin due to tensions over Russia forces opening fire on Ukrainian navy boats and seizing them. Trump and XI are expected to discuss trade tensions. Dollar index treaded steadily after a sharp fall followed by the comments of Fed chair Jerome Powell, who hinted that the rates are nearing the neutral stance. Powell in a speech before the Economic Club of New York on Wednesday said that interest rates are “Just Below” the neutral range. Although almost all the FOMC members pointed for a rate hike in December, the latest comments from Jerome Powell added uncertainty over further rate hikes in 2019. Oil prices are back again above $50 as OPEC and Russian might agree on production cuts when they meet next week, but swelling US inventories would keep the pressure on prices. RBI intervention with large pockets when Rupee was trading above 73, US 10-year Treasury yields drop to 3% from seven-year highs combined with softer crude prices helped the Indian rupee in adding gains. USDINR is likely to find its base at 69.20 – 69.50 and resume its upside momentum once the market mood shift towards OPEC meet on 6th December and five state election results.
NEWS FLOWS OF LAST WEEK
• The dollar sagged against its peers on Powell’s comments, which suggested the Fed’s interest rate hike cycle may come to an end faster than initially anticipated.

• Preliminary data suggest that US GDP is expected to widen by only 3.5 %( QoQ) in Q3 compared with an expectation of 3.6%.
• China November Manufacturing PMI numbers worsen to 50 from 50.2 earlier as trade tensions dent the manufacturing activity.
