1. The Guv talks hawkish....Sensex plunges 1.85%...rate sensitives crash
Market Summary
20-Sep-2013
Following yesterday's spectacular rally, markets suffered a sharp annihilation today on RBI’s policy shock. Contrary to
rate cut hopes, RBI took the markets by surprise by hiking the repo rate by 25 bps. Sensex crashed over 500 points
and Nifty breached 6K on the lower side immediately after the rate hike announcement. In late noon trades,
benchmarks recovered some lost ground. Both frontline gauges were above the crucial levels of 20K and 6K at the
close. Rate sensitives were butchered the most.
Among global peers, US and Asian indices edged lower on profit booking by investors whereas European indices were
trading in green.
Back home, citing the rising inflation, in a sharp contrast to Fed's stance, RBI Guv, Rajan took an hawkish stance by
hiking the repo rate by 25 basis points to 7.5% from 7.25% while keeping the CRR unchanged at 4.0%. Rajan reduced
the Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) rate by 75 basis points from 10.25% to 9.5% and minimum daily maintenance of
the cash reserve ratio (CRR) from 99% of the requirement to 95%. The hike in repo rate will tighten the liquidity and
will also make the loans more expensive. On the other hand, the deposit rates may be hiked to promote deposits.
