In the week gone by, global markets moved higher on rising hopes of a US stimulus, I as the comment from U.S. President Donald Trump fueled hopes of fresh fiscal support, while data underscored the view that the labor market recovery was struggling to gain momentum. On the flip side, major European economies are warning of worse growth rates to come, downgrading already dire forecasts on the back of a second wave of coronavirus infections sweeping through the continent. The latest economic data points to mixed fortunes for the German economy; it reported Tuesday a 4.5% rise in industrial orders in August, from the previous month. But on Wednesday it reported lackluster industrial output data for August, having fallen 0.2% from July. China’s stock market looked enthusiastic after the golden week holiday amid positive economic data coming out from the economy.
Back at home, expectations of another government stimulus ahead of the festive season cheered the market participants. To note, the surge in global liquidity, balance sheet expansion by central banks, and stimulus measures by governments have contributed to the overall rally in Indian equities for the past few months. On expected lines, the Indian central Bank has continued with its pause stance while stating clearly that it will continue with the accommodative approach well into the next financial year given the significant uncertainty on the growth revival trajectory. The central bank has made it clear that the focus must now shift from containment to revival. Moreover, RBI’s move to rationalize home loan risk weightage and link them to Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio is expected to bolster the real estate sector with higher lending. Meanwhile, the GST Council could consider setting up a group of ministers to resolve the row over states having to borrow from the market in order to meet the shortfall in compensation. On the data front, the Composite PMI Output Index, which measures combined services and manufacturing output, rose from 46.0 in August to 54.6 in September. As per World Bank, India’s economy is expected to contract 9.6% in FY21. Going forward, investors would be looking ahead for the Q2 corporate earnings results. Besides macroeconomic data, crude oil prices and rupee movement will continue to dictate the trend of the market going forward.
On the commodity front, this week commodities noticed knee jerk reaction mostly on the news of Trump got Covid positive and his recovery amid his statement on stimulus it will come after post-election. Again he started talk on stimulus. This flip flop on fiscal policies kept the entire market jittery. CRB closed little up on improved sentiments. However, the chances of even these piecemeal packages being passed before the Nov. 3 presidential election are slim. Dollar index is trading under pressure and this is keeping commodities prices up. US election is getting closer and near the election time we may see higher fluctuations in commodities prices. Gold should remain trade with firm bias, nevertheless 52000 levels can play strong resistance for yellow metal. Many storms this year hit the US and disrupted the supply side and thus prices are expected to trade up despite muted demand. ZEW Economic Sentiment Index of Germany and Euro zone, Core Inflation Rate of US, Unemployment Rate of Australia, Inflation Rate and New Yuan Loans of China, Retail Sales and Michigan Consumer Sentiment of US and inflation data from many countries will pave the path for next move in commodities.

The company continues to invest towards infrastructure augmentation and capability development to offer differentiated solution to the farming community. Government’s ambitious plan to double the farm income by 2022 & fixation of the minimum support prices for crops at 1.5 times the cost of production brings out a sizeable opportunity for the company. Also, increase in prices of higher-fertilizerconsuming crops such as paddy, soybean and sugarcane augurs well for the company. It is expected that the company is well-positioned for holistic growth, led by increased volumes and higher realizations. It is expected thatthe stock will see a price target of Rs.858 in 8 to 10 months time frame on five year average P/E of 19.45 and FY21 EPS of Rs.44.09.
The company will continue to benefit from its healthy market position, robust operating efficiency and strong liquidity. However, the company expects the government’s push towards big infrastructure projects and affordable housing to help the industry to come back on the growth trajectory. There could be a lot of pent-up demand for cement, which would lead to a sharp recovery in volumes once the nationwide lockdown is lifted and normalcy returns. Thus, it is expected that the stock will see a price target of Rs.879 in 8 to 10 months time frame on an average P/BV of 1.55x and FY22 BVPS of Rs.606.07.

Turmeric futures (Nov) is expected to decline towards 5700 taking negative cues from the spot markets. Despite the fact that the arrivals of turmeric at the four turmeric markets at Erode had decreased, prices are not showing signs of improvement. Around 1,700-1800 bags of medium-quality turmeric are arriving for sale, of which buyers are purchasing 1,100-1200 bags of turmeric. With only local and little upcountry demand, they are very cautious in their purchase. The buyers are quoting slightly increased prices for goodquality turmeric of the medium variety finger turmeric. For lack of demand, limited stocks are being purchased by the stockists. Turmeric growers, too, brought a limited produce to get feasible prices. At the Erode Cooperative Marketing Society, finger turmeric was sold at Rs.4,674-5,669 a quintal, and the root variety was sold at Rs.4,799- 5,589 a quintal. Jeera futures (Nov) is likely to consolidate in the range of 13500-13900 with upside getting capped. The weakness in spot markets is due to frail domestic buying and slowdown in export demand. Amid steady arrivals of 14,000 bags of jeera, all the varieties are showing a downtrend. Dhaniya futures (Nov) taking support near 6700 may trade higher towards 6800-6900 levels. On the spot, festive demand has brought back cheers to coriander once again as spice manufacturers are engaged in aggressive buying and there has been a shortage of premium quality supplies. It is to be noted that demand has come back with M.P mandis resuming operations after nearly 2 weeks of strike in the state. Meanwhile traders in Rajasthan are gearing up now to stage protests, seeking reduction in mandi fees.
Bullion counter prices rose due to a weaker dollar and headed for a second straight weekly gain, with the metal’s appeal as an inflation hedge bolstered by renewed optimism over a new U.S. coronavirus relief package. The dollar index dropped against rivals, en route to a second straight weekly fall. With renewed hopes for another fiscal stimulus, we saw the dollar decline, inflation expectations pick up and risk returning to the table. All these factors are pushing gold higher. Talks resumed between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin over the coronavirus aid plan. A widening lead for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden was also seen as opening the way for a big economic stimulus. The World Gold Council said, the metal’s appeal, gold-backed ETF’s added more than 1,000 tonnes of bullion worth $60 billion to their stockpile in the first 9 months of 2020. The world's central banks sold more gold in August than they bought, the WGC said, ending a year-and-a-half-long run of monthly gold accumulation and helping stall a rapid rise in gold prices. Meanwhile, reinforcing the economic damage from the coronavirus, data showed the euro zone’s economic recovery faltered in September. Investors are now focused on new U.S. coronavirus relief aid aimed at cushioning the economic blow from the pandemic. The uncertainty from the upcoming U.S. elections would keep gold supported. Investors now wait minutes from U.S. Federal Reserve’s Sept. 15-16 policy meeting. This week, gold may trade in the range of 48200-52800 and Silver may trade in the range of 56000-65800. Whereas on COMEX gold may trade in the range of $1865-$1940 and Silver may trade in the range of $20.80-$27.10.
Soybean futures (Nov) is looking bullish and has further room upside to move higher towards 4100-4200. The gap between demand and supply for this oilseed has increased in the domestic as well as in the international market. Farmers in different parts of Madhya Pradesh told the Thomson Reuters Foundation they had lost as much as 90% of their soybean crop. On the demand side, the FOB spread between Indian Soymeal DOC and Argentina Soymeal DOC is $25 as of 9th Oct. This has enabled more exports demand for Indian DOC leading to stronger soybean demand in the local market. On CBOT, U.S soybean is trading near its highest in more than 2-1/2 years on the back of robust sales to China and Mexico. The sales come amid concerns about soybean planting delays due to dry weather in Brazil. On the contrary, Mustard futures (Nov) may witness correction and decline towards 5350-5300. It is being estimated that India is likely to grow a record 10 million tons of mustard crop in 2020-21 mainly on likelihood of a sharp rise in area. The government has more than enough mustard seed of good quality for the 2020-21 (Jul-Jun) Rabi sowing. It has total stock of 26,700 tons certified seeds against requirement of 25,100 tons. Soy oil futures (Nov) is expected to trade on a bullish note and test 940-950, while CPO futures (October) will probably zoom upside towards 795-805 levels respectively. The bullishness prevailing in the international market amid reports of damage to palm oil plantations in Malaysia and soy oil trading on multi-weeks high on CBOT, will continue to lend support to the domestic edible oil prices.
Crude oil prices headed towards $45 on support from output shutdowns ahead of a storm in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and the possibility of supply cuts from Saudi Arabia and Norway. Markets reacted sharply on a Dow Jones report that Saudi Arabia is considering reversing course over OPEC’s planned production increase early next year. Oil also gained support from the prospect of more production outages in the North Sea because of a workers’ strike. Oil firms and labor officials said they will meet with a state-appointed mediator in an attempt both sides hope will bring an end to a strike that threatens to cut Norway’s oil and gas output by some 25%. The OPEC has been challenged by rising output in Libya, an OPEC member exempted from cutting output, as well as an increase in coronavirus cases in many areas of the world. The market has also drawn support from Hurricane Delta, which is forecast to intensify into a powerful, Category 3 storm in the Gulf Coast. Nearly 1.5 million barrels of daily output was halted. In the Gulf of Mexico, producers have shut 1.69 million barrels per day of oil, or 92% of the region’s offshore oil, and 1.67 billion cubic feet per day, or nearly 62% of its natural gas output, bracing for the impact of Hurricane Delta. This week crude price may witness huge volatility within the range of 2700-3380, where selling pressure can be seen near the resistance. U.S. natural gas production and demand will drop in 2020 from record highs last year as coronavirus lockdowns cut economic activity and energy prices. This week Natural gas may trade in wider range of 175-220 with bullish bias.
Cotton futures (October) is on a bull run and this shall continue till 18700- 19000 taking positive cues from the international market amid crop damage caused by Hurricane Delta and news in the domestic market that with regards to procurement. Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) would procure 125 lakh bales (one bale is 170 kg) of cotton, which is 20 lakh bales more than the 105 lakh bales procured in the previous season. Chana futures is expected to maintain its uptrend, hence buying on dips would be recommended eyeing a target of 5700-5800 for the November contract. On the spot, chana has been witnessing an uptrend in Indore mandis for some time now, on weak availability and strong buying support from the millers ahead of the festival season. Secondly, with the Madhya Pradesh government agreeing to reduce mandi tax from the existing Rs.1.70 to 50 p, trading in all 270 mandis across Madhya Pradesh resumed from last week. Guar seed futures (Nov) is expected to gain further and test 4200-4250, taking support near 4070. While, Guar gum futures (Nov) will probably trade steady with an upside bias in the range of 6200-6400. As the area sown under guar has reduced, it is expected that the production may fall from 9 million bags of 100 kilograms each in the previous year to about 7.5 million bags this year. On the spot, Guar gum and guar seed prices are showing upside momentum in mandis of Rajasthan and Haryana hoping demand from the US. Currently, guar seed arrival has begun in Sriganganagar, Bikaner, Hissar, Adampur and few areas of Gujarat. Jaipur is also waiting for new arrival. Meanwhile, Western Rajasthan is receiving new guar seed.
Base metals may trade with positive bias as Chinese market reopened after week long holiday and renewed hopes for more U.S. stimulus. However concern over the economic impact of rising coronavirus cases and a jump in metal inventories may weigh on prices. U.S. President Donald Trump said that talks with the Congress have restarted over further COVID-19 relief after he ended the talks earlier in the week. However, the prospect of the deal is still unclear. Copper can move 540 by taking support near 515. Prices will get support due to labor strike at a mine in top producer Chile. A union of workers at Lundin Mining’s Candelaria copper mine in Chile walked off the job last week after talks broke down earlier in week. Peruvian copper production volumes fell to 193,852 tonnes of copper in August, a 10% year-on-year decrease from 215,426 tonnes due to lower output from Southern Peru Copper Corp and Antamina. Anglo American wants to explore for base metals in South Africa, but the country needs regulatory changes to make it more competitive with other mining jurisdictions. Zinc may trade in the range of 187-203 while Lead can move in the range of 144-152. Nickel may test 1150 by taking support near 1060. Indonesia’s state miner Mining Industry Indonesia (MIND ID), formerly known as PT Inalum, completed its purchase of a 20% stake in nickel miner PT Vale Indonesia. Aluminum may move towards 152. China’s imports of unwrought aluminium rose again in August, extending a rare inversion of normal trade patterns. Combined imports of primary metal and unwrought alloy totalled 393,000 tonnes, just shy of the previous record of 394,000 tonnes in April 2009.

This week commodities noticed knee jerk reaction mostly on the news that Trump got Covid positive and his recovery amid his statement on stimulus it will come after post-election. Again he started talks on stimulus. This flip flop on fiscal policies kept the entire market jittery. CRB closed little up on improved sentiments. Oil prices rose as oil workers evacuated rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico ahead of Hurricane Delta, though fuel demand concerns persisted on fading chances for an economic stimulus deal in the United States, the world's biggest oil consumer. The Gulf of Mexico produced up to 1.65 million BPD in July, as documented by the U.S. government, accounts around 17% of U.S. crude outputs. EIA data showed that US gasoline stocks fell more than earlier anticipated in the past week to their lowest since last November. Nevertheless crude oil supplies surged by 501,000 barrels supported by an increase in production and imports. Gold prices were down after the Federal Reserve’s strong support for a new Covid-19 stimulus failed to excite haven buyers. Trump dispatched Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to revive talks with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for a narrower, targeted deal that would help airline workers, among others. U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted that Congress should pass money for airlines, small businesses, and stimulus checks of $1,200 for individuals, after his halt of the talks between Democrats and Republicans over the latest stimulus measures rattled global markets. Base metals prices flared up on downside in dollar index. Copper prices showed strength on renewed strength on China’s economic rebound and a weaker US dollar as new streams of demand arise for the industrial metal, the latest being for solar panels. The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) announced this week $3m of funding to Australian start-up SunDrive for its rooftop solar panels that use copper instead of silver. Solar power units currently represent 20 per cent of global annual silver consumption’.

In Unjha, price of exchange-quality jeera quoted at 14,400 rupees per 100 kg. U.S soybean futures soared to multi-year highs as unfavorable weather threatened production in exporting countries. Mustard prices fell as mustard crushing during the month of September has reduced to 6.5 lakh tons as compared to 8 lakh tons in August.

Agreen week for rupee after RBI remains supportive in its latest monetary policy. As India still facing covid challenges since economic restrictions begins, RBI Governor has showed that he will do whatever it takes to make things in order. Well the latest RBI policy was not much for rupee centric but certainly boosts Indian bonds after announcing to buy state government bonds for the first time in history. While keeping the policy rate unchanged, RBI still eyeing on inflation figures. We will start the week with September inflation release on Monday which may come nearly 7% that can be the latest risk in rupee.
