In-Depth Market Insights: Global Outlook, Derivatives & More

US Share Market News

  1. Performance Overview:

    • On Tuesday, the S&P 500 closed above 5,500 for the first time ever, boosted by a surge in Tesla and optimism about rate cuts after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell praised recent progress on inflation.

  2. Economic Indicators:

    • Fed Chair Jerome Powell stated that the Fed has made 'quite a bit of progress' in bringing inflation back down toward the central bank's target.

    • However, he added that more confidence in a sustained decrease in inflation is needed before starting the rate-cutting process.

    • The Federal Chairman's remarks come just a day ahead of the minutes of the Fed’s June meeting, providing more insight into the labour market with nonfarm payrolls data due on Friday.

    • Despite sticky inflation and high interest rates, the labour sector has been performing strongly. This is a key factor for the Fed when considering interest rate cuts.

    • Traders now see a 64% chance of a rate cut in September, up from about 61% last week, according to Investing.com's Fed Rate Monitor Tool.

  3. Sector-Specific Movements:

    • The S&P 500 gained 0.7% to a record close of 5,510.65, marking the 32nd record close this year.

    • The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 147 points, or 0.4%, while the NASDAQ Composite increased 0.7% to an all-time high of 18,029.18.



Other Asset Classes

  1. Treasury Yields:

    • On Tuesday, the treasury yields fell, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note dropping nearly 5 basis points to about 4.428%.

  2. Currency:

    • The dollar slipped on Tuesday in choppy trading after Federal Chair Jerome Powell struck a slightly dovish tone, suggesting the US Fed is likely to start easing later this year. The dollar index was down around 0.2% at 105.74.

  3. Commodities:

    • US crude oil pulled back from a two-month high on Tuesday. WTI crude hit a high of $84.38 earlier in the session, the highest level since April 26, but closed lower at $82.81 per barrel. Brent rose to $87.46 earlier in the session, the highest level since April 30, before also settling lower.

    • Gold prices edged lower on Tuesday as Treasury yields remained firm. Investors digested comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and looked forward to US jobs data due later this week for more signals on US interest rate cuts. Spot gold was down 0.21% at $2,326.90 per ounce.

Asian Markets

  1. General Trends:

    • South Korea’s Kospi started the morning up 0.26%, while the Kosdaq Index increased by 0.5%.

India Market Outlook

  1. GIFT Nifty Projection:

    • Gift Nift suggests a gap-up opening for the Indian market, supported by expected strong gains in HDFC Bank and firm global cues.

    • After a positive opening, Nifty is expected to consolidate with a positive bias in the range of 24,100-24,350.

  2. Nifty Short-Term Outlook:

    • Benchmark indices traded within a range and closed flat. Nifty opened slightly higher but couldn't sustain its gains, closing 0.1% lower at 24123.85. Bank Nifty underperformed, closing 0.8% lower at 52168.10.

    • The broader market saw profit booking, with Nifty midcap and small cap indices down by 0.8% and 0.5%, respectively.

    • If the index holds above the current week low of 23980, the immediate bias remains positive, potentially extending the rally towards 24600 in the coming week.

    • Failure to hold above 23980 could result in consolidation within the 23600-24200 range in the coming weeks.

  3. Intraday Levels:

    • Nifty: Intraday resistance is situated at 24,300, followed by 24,390 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 24,050, followed by 23,980.

    • Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 52,760, followed by 53,000, while downside support is found at 52,100, followed by 51,910.

    • Fin Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 23,680, followed by 23,790, while downside support is found at 23,490, followed by 23,400.

Derivative Market Analysis

  1. Nifty:

    • The highest call option writing for Nifty is at 25000, followed by 24500, with immediate resistance at 24300.

    • If Nifty crosses 24300, it could rally towards 24500.

    • The highest put writing is at 24000, followed by 23500, and a drop below 24100 could trigger profit booking towards 24000-23800 levels.

    • Option chain analysis highlights important resistance at 24500 and support at 24000.

    • Significant call writing at the 24200 ATM strike indicates market stiffness.

  2. Bank Nifty:

    • The highest call writing for Bank Nifty is at the 53000 level, followed by 54000, indicating strong resistance at 52500 due to significant call OI addition.

    • If the 52500 level is breached, the next resistance will be at 53000.

    • The highest put writing is seen at 52000, followed by 51000.
