IDEAL STOCK MARKET UPDATE | MARKET OPENS

Market Opens :
Indices start the day on a flat note with Nifty below 10,750; PSU banks in focus.

The Sensex is up 7.59 points at 35763.85, while Nifty is down 5.30 points at 10730.20. About 428 shares have advanced, 333 shares declined, and 42 shares are unchanged. Tech Mahindra,

Allahabad Bank, ICICI Bank, SBI, Indiabulls Housing, are among major gainers, while losers are Reliance Power, BPCL, HPCL, IOC, Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Ida, TCS and Yes Bank.

Rupee Opens:
The Indian rupee opened marginally higher at 71.07 per dollar on Thursday versus previous close 71.11.

Rupee rose in the latter half of the session primarily on back of gains in domestic equities and as FIIs poured in funds after remaining on the sell side for last few sessions. Rally in global crude oil prices, stronger dollar and widening trade deficit is expected to keep the rupee under pressure. On the domestic front, no major economic data is expected to be released but a stronger dollar could keep the rupee weighed down

Global Markets :
SGX Nifty:
Trends on SGX Nifty indicate a negative opening for the broader index in India, a fall of 24.50 points or 0.23 percent. Nifty futures were trading around 10,742.50-level on the Singaporean Exchange.

Asia shares trade steady​: 
Asian shares held near 4-1/2-month highs on Thursday after US Federal Reserve minutes affirmed it would be "patient" on interest rate rises and risk assets got a lift from hopes of further progress in US-China trade talks.

Wall Street ends higher:
US stocks ended higher on Wednesday after minutes from the Federal Reserve's last meeting reaffirmed for investors that the US central bank would be "patient" with respect to further interest rate hikes.

Domestic Markets :
A breather for D-Street! Indian market snapped its 8-day losing streak and closed with handsome gains led by large-cap names.
The S&P BSE Sensex rallied over 400 points while Nifty50 reclaimed 10700 levels. The Nifty index posted its best daily gain since Jan 31, 2019, when the index rose by 1.68 percent.

The advance-decline ratio was on the whole balanced and therefore the current bounce should be taken with a pinch of salt, suggest experts as the pain may not be over yet.

The market rallied in expectation of dovish minutes from the US Fed and resumption of dialogue between the US and China adding positive vibes for the global market.

Strong inflows from DIIs, appreciation of rupee and value buying in mid & small caps helped the domestic market, experts said.

On the institutional front, both FPI and DIIs were net buyers in Indian markets for Rs 713 crore, and Rs 113 crore respectively, according to provisional data.

Technical View:
Nifty formed a bullish candle on the daily charts

Considering the current environment, the market is unlikely to cross 11,000 immediately, but 10,900 could be possible which will act as a stiff resistance level, experts said.

Three levels: 10646, 10752, 10850

Big News:
The government on February 20, announced final recapitalisation tranche amount of Rs 48,239 crore for as many as 12 public sector banks, in a bid to take them out of Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) prompt corrective action framework.

The 12 banks are Allahabad Bank, Corporation Bank, Bank of India, Bank of Maharashtra, Punjab National Bank, Union Bank, Andhra Bank, Syndicate Bank, Central Bank, United Bank, UCO Bank and IOB.

As of December 2018 government has infused Rs 51,533 crore via budgetary allocation and recap bonds.

Reports suggest that the RBI began to place state-run banks under the PCA framework for the first time in September 2016, when their NPAs soared beyond the regulatory tolerance levels.

The lending ability of as many as 11 PSBs was contained by the RBI when they were put under the PCA framework. The restrictions under the framework, which included a restriction on dividend distribution, restriction on branch expansion, restriction on management compensation and director’s fees, could be imposed as and when the banks would breach various regulatory threshold limits.
