Global Economic News:

Fed hikes rates, reveals plan to shrink bond holdings
Despite falling inflation data in recent months, the US Federal Reserve hiked rates on Wednesday, and indicated it will likely hike rates once more this year. Also, the central bank laid out the framework it will use when it begins to shrink its massive balance sheet, a process it indicated will begin later this year. The Fed will initially allow $10 billion in securities to mature each month — $6 billion in Treasuries and $4 billion in mortgage and agency debt — gradually increasing until it reaches a cap of $50 billion a month. In her Wednesday press conference, Fed chair Janet Yellen chalked up the recent decline in inflation to one-off factors such as falling prices for cell phone service and prescription drugs. Despite three consecutive monthly declines in consumer prices, the Federal Open Market Committee said that it expects inflation to stabilize around the committee’s 2% target in the medium term. Despite three rates hikes, yields on US 10-year notes are nearly a half-percent lower today than they were when the FOMC resumed its tightening cycle in December 2016.

New party set to grab French majority 
French president Emmanuel Macron’s Republic on the Move party is set to secure a significant majority in the National Assembly, based on voting in the first round of the two-round process. His party is projected to win as many as 450 of the 577 seats in France’s lower house, potentially giving him the ability to push through needed, but previously unpopular, reforms. The final round of voting takes place on Sunday, 18 June.

IMF ups China outlook
The International Monetary Fund raised its gross domestic product forecast for China to 6.7% in 2017, up from its prior 6.6% projection, the second time the fund has boosted its outlook. China should embrace reform while growth is strong, the IMF said, since buffers are sufficient to ease the transition and to avoid sharp adjustments down the road.

Greek debt relief will have to wait
Greece’s creditors reached another deal to release a further round of funding to keep the country afloat. The lifeline did not include an agreement to cut Greece’s debt load, as had been hoped, postponing discussions on that matter until August 2018. Under the terms of the deal, Greece will be granted access to an additional €8.5 billion, though its debt remains excluded from the European Central Bank’s asset purchase program. Greek unemployment stands at 23%, and the Greek economy has shrunk 27% since 2008, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

US revises Cuba policy
The Trump administration announced a revised Cuba policy on Friday that will tighten rules on Americans traveling to Cuba and restrict US companies from doing business with entities controlled by the Cuban military. Exceptions will be made for US air carriers and cruise lines.

GLOBAL CORPORATE NEWS

UK election fallout reverberates
Credit rating agency Moody’s Investors Service warned this week that the minority government resulting from the recent snap election in the United Kingdom further complicates Brexit negotiations with the European Union. The latest political developments are a credit negative, and the government will likely be forced to put fiscal deficit cuts on hold, the agency said. Meanwhile, inflation remains a major concern for Bank of England policymakers after consumer prices rose 2.9% versus a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly four years. Markets were caught by surprise as three members of the eight- member Monetary Policy Committee — there is one vacancy on the committee — voted to raise interest rates this week in order to rein in inflation. London’s financial community had expected to hear from Chancellor of the Exchequer Phillip Hammond and Bank of England governor Mark Carney late in the week, but both cancelled scheduled speeches out of respect for those killed and injured in the Grenfell Tower apartment building fire.

Accumulate HDIL Ltd For Target Rs.110.00

Hdil, after prolong corrective phase, has been trading in a broader range of 50-110 for last three years.
Technically, the realty index has witnessed bullish reversal after several years of underperformance and Hdil is also rebounding in line with the sectoral index.

Currently, it has been consolidating above the support zone of multiple moving averages with exponential rise in volumes which indicates accumulation. The chart pattern along with oscillators is also pointing towards strong prospect of retesting the upper band of the range in near term and possibly a breakout also this time. In short, we strongly advise traders to use this phase to accumulate in the given range of 90-93 with close below stop loss of 83 for the target of 110.

Recommendation 
Buy HDIL  Ltd @ 90-93 Stoploss 83 Target 110 

MARKET OUTLOOK: 
The Nifty opened on flat note today & traded with bearish bias throughout the day. Nevertheless the index obeyed the falling channel on the hourly chart & remained within the same. Near the support zone of 9580-9560 bulls rushed in to provide support to the benchmark index. Thus Nifty managed to close just above the 20 DMA. Till the time the key Moving Average & the lower channel line holds on closing basis sharper decline is unlikely. On the higher side, 9627-9655 is a key resistance zone to watch out for. Once that gets taken off, the next move on the upside can take the index to 9815, which is our short term target.

Other technical observations 
On the daily chart the Nifty is above the 20-day moving average (DMA) and the 40-DEMA, i.e. 9577 and 9465 respectively. The momentum indicator is in bearish mode on the daily chart.

On the hourly chart, the Nifty is below the 20-hour moving average (HMA) and the 40-HEMA, i.e. 9606 and 9614 respectively. The hourly momentum indicator is in bearish mode. The market breadth was marginally negative with 728 advances and 747 declines on the National Stock Exchange.

Low made  was 9560 bears broke 9595 and finally closed below it and can push towards 9520/9480. Bullish above 9610 for a move towards 9660/9720/9770. As seen in below chart, nifty has done 2 time whipsaw at gann angle and shown a impulsive move on upside. Will it be repeated again ? 17 June is important trend change date as per geometric time cycle as it being holiday we should see effect either tomorrow or Monday.  Nifty continue to close below gann angle, but in the process formed an Inside bar pattern. Bullish above 9610 for a move towards 9660/9720/9770. Till we are closing below 9595 bears have upper hand and can push 9520/9480.As we discussed 17 June is important trend change day so low made on Friday is important ie.9565 holding the same we can continue to move higher towards our target.  

Conclusion: 
The Indian equity markets snapped its five week winning streak amid profit booking around the all time high of 9700. Rising NPA issues, loan waivers by states kept the overall sentiment under check. RBI identifying 12 accounts that covered about 25% of the banking system’s NPA for immediate resolution under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code also saw uncertainty spread across the street. Meanwhile, the Index of Industrial Production rose to 3.1% in April led by high growth in manufacturing. On the other hand, retail inflation fell to a record low of 2.18% in May. The wholesale price index based inflation eased to 2.17% in May this year from 3.85% in April. Among the other macro-economic data, India’s current account deficit in the fourth quarter widened to USD 3.4 bn, or 0.6% of gross domestic product (GDP), against USD 0.3 bn (0.1% of GDP) in the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2015-16, owing to a widening trade deficit. Mostly sectoral indices traded in line with the benchmark and ended on flat note, in absence of any fresh trigger. For the week, BSE Sensex and Nifty were down by 0.8% each.
