Global markets at a glance
US stocks declined broadly on Tuesday as China's devalua-
tion of its yuan currency hit companies with a big exposure
to the world's No. 2 economy and added to worries about
the global economic outlook. The Dow Jones industrial av-
erage fell 212.33 points, or 1.21 percent, to 17,402.84; the
S&P 500 index lost 20.11 points, or 0.96 percent, to
2,084.07 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 65.01 points,
or 1.27%, to 5,036.79. The S&P 500 posted 10 new 52-week
highs and 17 new lows; the Nasdaq recorded 40 new highs
and 104 new lows. About 7.1 billion shares changed hands
on US exchanges, compared with the 6.9 billion daily aver-
age for the month to date, according to data from BATS
Global Markets.
European shares retreated on Tuesday, with carmakers and
luxury goods stocks among the worst performers, after
China devalued its currency and a report showed economic
sentiment weakening in Germany. The pan-European
FTSEurofirst 300 index and the euro zone's Euro STOXX 50
index both closed about 1.7 percent lower. Germany's ex-
porter-heavy DAX index lost some 2.7 percent, falling to its
lowest level since Aug. 3.
Asian equities made further retreats early Wednesday, af-
ter the People's Bank of China (PBOC) set the midpoint rate
for the yuan at 6.3306 per dollar, 75 points weaker than
the previous day's 6.2298 level.
Previous day Roundup
It was a day of sharp sell-off. Stocks tumbled on Dalal
Street due to a heady cocktail of weak global cues and poor
earnings. The Nifty cracked 8500 mark to end at 8462.35,
down 63.25 points or 0.74 percent. About 1016 shares ad-
vanced, 1876 shares declined, and 135 shares were un-
changed. Midcaps also fell in tandem with the blue chips as
the index lost nearly 100 points. What worried Indian in-
vestors was devaluation of Chinese currency. The People's
Bank of China allowed the yuan to depreciate almost 2%
against the US dollar to levels last seen three years ago,
sending a shock through currency markets.

COMMODITY ROUNDUP
MCX Crude oil futures slipped heavily today as a failure to
hold above Rs 2900 per barrel mark triggered a heavy col-
lapse. The commodity gained in last session but dropped
after global prices yet again slid lower as equities slipped
with investors assessing China's unexpected devaluation of
the yuan. China's central bank devalued the yuan by nearly
2%, allowing the currency to fall to levels last seen in 2012,
in an effort to make the country's exports more competi-
tive. Stocks fell across Asia and Europe and oil has revered
the near two percent gain seen in last session.
The global crude oil prices had recovered from their lowest
levels in months yesterday on bargain buying and a moder-
ate retreat in the US dollar. However, the counter is yet
again approaching the same levels with WTI Crude oil fu-
tures trading at $43.66 per barrel, down nearly 3% on the
day. MCX Crude oil futures are trading at Rs 2815 per barrel,
down1.57% on the day. The DOW has lot around 100 points
in early moves and oil can extend the current spate of losses
in evening. Futures market traders and large oil speculators
slightly increased their overall bullish bets in WTI oil futures
last week following four weeks of declining bullish bets, ac-
cording to the latest COT data released by the CFTC on Fri-
day. The non-commercial contracts of crude oil futures,
traded by large speculators, traders and hedge funds, to-
taled a net position of 247,093contracts in the data re-
ported for August 4th. This was an increase of 3,674 con-
tracts from the previous week's total of 243,419 net con-
tracts for the data reported through July28th.
Gold staged a spectacular comeback to reclaim the psycho-
logically significant Rs 25,000 mark - its highest level in two-
weeks at the domestic bullion hub here following frantic
stockists buying driven by strong global sentiment. After
weeks of tremendous selling pressure, the yellow- metal
broke its descending trend due to attractive low level buy-
ing in the face of a firming trend in overseas. Standard gold
(99.5 purity) shot-up by Rs 425 to end at Rs 25,250 per 10
grams from Monday's closing level of Rs 24,825. Pure gold
(99.9 purity) also jumped by a similar margin to conclude at
Rs 25,400 per 10 grams as against Rs 24,975 previously.
Elsewhere, silver continued its rallying momentum on the
back of heavy speculative demand and also good industrial
buying support. Silver (.999 fineness) zoomed by Rs 900 to
finish at Rs 35,740 per kg compared to Rs 34,840 yesterday.

NCDEX ROUNDUP
NCDEX Chana futures shot up amid excellent demand even
as other agri commodities turned in a mixed performance
today. Chana arrivals are likely to wane in coming weeks
and festive demand is set to soar. The overall stocks in
ready markets are thin and spot prices are unlikely to drop
much after the latest correction which saw the prices drop
from a high around Rs 4700 per quintal to a one month low
near Rs 4400 per quintal in last couple of weeks. Spot Chana
is up Rs 40 per quintal at Rs 4600 per quintal in Delhi today.
The NCDEX Chana futures for September are trading at Rs
4511 per quintal, 1.33% on the day.
Soybeans also witnessed excellent gains in futures after the
recent string of losses. The NCDEX Soybeans futures for Oc-
tober are trading at Rs 3158 per quintal, up 1.12% on the
day. Jeera garnered good upside as well, rallying on short
covering and bargain buying. The NCDEX Jeera futures for
September are trading at Rs 15150 per quintal, up 0.90% on
the day.
In other commodities, Barley extended its drop amid contin-
ued selling pressure. NCDEX Barley futures for September
are trading at Rs 1132.50 per quintal, down 1.35% on the
day. NCDEX Wheat traded mixed after recovering from lows
under Rs 1500 per quintal. The commodity gained this week
after the government decided to impose an import duty of
10% on wheat effective until March 31 next year, reinstat-
ing tariffs after a gap of eight years following big purchases
in recent months. NCDEX Wheat futures for September are
trading at Rs 1519 per quintal, down 0.33% on the day.

CURRENCY MARKET UPDATES:
The Indian rupee fell against the US dollar on Tuesday,
tracking losses in the Asian currencies market. The rupee
closed at 64.20 a dollar, down 0.56% from its previous
close of 63.87. The partially convertible currency opened at
64.15 a dollar and touched a high and a low of 64.03 and
64.27, respectively. Since January this year, the rupee has
lost 1.75%.
China’s central bank cut the reference rate of its currency
yuan by a record 1.9% on Tuesday, which is seen as an at-
tempt to check falling exports. On Tuesday, Chinese ren-
minbi lost 1.82% Japanese yen 0.23%, Thai baht 0.609%,
Malaysian ringgit 0.931%, Hong Kong dollar 0.041%,South
Korean won 1.34%, Indonesian rupiah 0.412%, Taiwan dol-
lar 1.258%, Philippine peso 0.36%, Singapore dollar 1.31%,
while Taiwan dollar lost 1.25%.
The dollar index, which measures the US currency’s
strength against major currencies, was trading at 97.19, up
0.03% from the previous close of 97.159. The benchmark
10-year government bond closed at 7.79% against its previ-
ous close of 7.79%. It opened at 7.79% and touched a high
and a low of 7.807% and 7.79%, respectively.
The US dollar edged lower against a basket of currencies
on Tuesday, paring from early highs hit after China's cen-
tral bank moved to devalue the yuan, sending the Chinese
currency to three year lows. China devalued the yuan in an
attempt to help exporters after a recent spate of disap-
pointing economic data. The central bank described it as a
“one-off depreciation” of nearly 2%, based on a new way
of managing the exchange rate that better reflected mar-
ket forces.
The euro was little changed at 1.1062 versus the greenback
after the ZEW Centre for Economic Research said that its
index of German economic sentiment fell by 4.7 points to a
nine-month low of 25.0 this month from July's reading of
29.7. The index of euro zone economic sentiment rose to
47.6 in August from 42.7 in July. Elsewhere, the dollar was
steady against the pound, with GBP/USD at 1.5588. USD/
JPY edged up 0.12% to trade at 124.78.
