  • Indian markets snapped two day winning streak and closed on negative note as investors turned cautious ahead of Infosys 2nd quarterly results and release of industrial production data. Weak opening of European markets also led the fall in the domestic markets.

     European markets opened weak after the news that European leaders pushed back a debt- crisis summit amid opposition to German Chancellor Angela Merkel's drive for deeper-than-planned writedowns of Greek bonds. Sell-off mainly came in the IT stocks as investors sold IT stocks ahead of Infosys results slated tomorrow. Analyst community believes that the company will cut the guidance for FY12 and therefore Infosys investors closed 3.2% down ahead of the results to factor in the fears. Wipro and TCS also slid with Infosys by 2% and 2.3%, respectively. Telecoms stocks rallied after a new draft policy unveiled by the government was seen broadly positive for the oncebooming sector that has struggled in recent years due to ferocious competition and 2G scam. Other than IT stocks, selling pressure was also seen in oil & gas and FMCG stocks. Private-sector lender Dhanlaxmi Bank closed down 9.65%. The stock had slumped 24% at one stage after an industry union alleged irregularities in its accounts, and came off lows after the bank denied the charges.

    Market breadth was however strong at ~1.26x as investors bought large cap stocks. Both FIIs and domestic institutions bought equities worth Rs.1.14bn  and Rs.1.08bn, respectively.

    Asian equity markets traded lower Wednesday, following disappointing results from US aluminum giant Alcoa and after Slovakia failed to approve an expansion of Europe’s giant financial bailout fund. Both the Hang seng and the Nikkei are down today.

    We expect a weak opening for the Indian markets following the cues from the Asian markets. Further, investors may remain cautious ahead of the IIP data today. Investors will also take some cues from Infosys results in the morning.
