1) Risk on Rally to continue in foreseeable future
: Loose monetary policy (low interest
rates and asset purchases by central banks) in the developed world has increased
investor risk appetite. Economic data is weak enough to warrant continued
stimulus but strong enough to keep earning expectations positive. Equity markets
in developed world including US, Germany have made new highs. Others including
Japan and India are at 3-5 year highs
2) Recent signs of shift in stance in Eurozone Governing
Council in favour of growth from austerity, reflected in the statements by the
EC and ECB, advocating medium term consolidation rather than front loaded
austerity would provide strong momentum to the global equity
rally. The shift could mean the ECB
easing lending norms to peripheral country commercial banks and engaging in
asset purchases and the EC easing pressure on peripheral countries to reduce
sovereign debt and deficits. This would result in further reducing peripheral
sovereign bond yields (Italy, Spain, etc) and reducing political pressures for
troubled Eurozone countries to break away. The significant alleviation of the
tail risk event of a Eurozone exit resulting from this would almost certainly
give strong momentum to the current global equity rally already underway.
3) Part of the Speculative money in Commodities to shift
to equities : With the “Risk on” rally
continuing in the global market and the speculation in commodities broken, part
of the speculative money from commodities is shifting/would shift to equities
which are seeing new highs. A proportion of the same could pour into EMs with
India benefiting from the shift in the trend.
4) Inflation moves into RBI's comfort zone, first time in
41 months paving way for more flexibility in Monetary Policy : On the domestic front, with oil, gold and industrial
commodity prices weakening has led to WPI slipping below the 5% level mark,
first time in 41 months and CPI finally going below double digits. RBI Governor
has indicated that it would consider falling inflation while deciding on
interest rates in its next policy meet raising market expectations for further
interest cuts(We expect another 50-75 bp cut in the rates during the course of
the year). Monthly Diesel price hikes – seen as biggest reform in Oil sector
would further ease investor concerns on the fiscal deficit front.
5) Q4 FY13 corporate earnings has been better than analyst
estimates : With only 2 out of the 15
companies in the Sensex having missed the analyst estimates (Bloomberg
consensus), the corporate performance is has been far better than Q3FY13 where
43% companies missed estimates and 40% missing estimates in first 2 quarters.
The industry would see margin expansion in the coming quarters as the input
prices are softening. Benefit of falling interest rates would start reflecting
in the corporate performances in the 2nd half of
the calendar. Government is also putting efforts in getting stalled investment
projects moving and kick start the investment cycle.
6) IMD has projected normal monsoon : IMD has projected monsoon for the season at 98% of LPA
with +/- 4% error. This would benefit the Agricultural sector and help
containing the food inflation. Moreover the indirect stimulus in form of
election year would also aid the overall economy. Roughly, Rs. 1 lakh crore
would be spent by the govt and candidates for the election. Moreover, Govt
typically announces sops in the election year and refrains from the politically
suicidal decision.
To take advantage of the
likely equity rally, we recommend investment in – ICICI Bank, Yes Bank, Cairn,
Maruti, Satyam/Tech Mahindra, Bata and Marico based on earnings growth,
valuations and sensitiveness to improvement in macro-economic indicators.
