Market updates for Intraday

Thursday, 12-May-2011, After Market Hours

After today's debacle, it seems that our markets are headed southwards. The Bears are taking over. It started bad today and sidewise trade continued for some time. Then came the good figures of IIP compared to last month and with it an upward surge. Then the market realised that this was false hope as the long term year-to-year Industrial Production figures are still bad and these monthly figures are of no use. Down went the market relentlessly. NIFTY strong support of 5500 was breached. 5440 seems breakable tomorrow.

The low volumes continued for the 4th day today. This is a definite sign that a big move is coming. Big move which way? All pointers say it will be southwards as the bears seem to be taking over. But you never know with the stock market, things can change drastically within a very short time. Quite possible if a larger than expected victory for the Congress happens in the Assembly polls' results tomorrow. And short, sharp change is what we intraday traders wait for!

More on Friday's likely trade-pattern will be in Pre-Market notes of 13th at about 8:45am

Sorry, but you make it seem so simple. I am sure it does not happen like this based on one factor alone. There are a lot of things happening the net result of which is a rise or a fall. Am I correct? Does the market 'realise' something?

IAC, what you write makes a lot of sense :)

Notes on IIP figures published today ...

There are some controversies. Follow these:

> India's industrial production grew a terrific 7.3% in March 2011, higher than 3.65% growth a month ago. > Very Good.
> Capital goods during March rose a robust 12.9% compared with a contraction of 18.4% last month. > Again, very good.
> Non-durable goods growth came in at 5.7% versus 1.5% (YoY). > This is a yearly figure.
> For the year (FY11) industrial output grew a meagre 7.8% as compared to 10.5% clocked in the previous fiscal.
> Manufacturing, which constitutes about 80% of the industrial production, rose an annual 7.9% versus 16.4%.
> While mining grew a minuscule 0.2% as against its growth of 12.3% during the same month last year.
> Capital goods too saw growth of only 12.9% versus 36% (YoY).

Can you still say IIP figures are good? The market first went by the 7.3% figure; then caught on and went down immediately.

Members thoughts on this ... please
IIP figure is like our pre-market open... big BS...!

If i was a long term investor, i would be looking at the books of LnT, Bhel, HUL ITC etc for my guide into the health of these leaders of the economy.

the numbers are all over the place and previous number's keep revising itself...

The surge that we saw today, very correctly predicted by us yesterday, should not be taken as a trend changer. It is just a one-off result due to some feel-good factors. Our market remains where it was and the sidewise movement continues. This is why the NIFTY could not cross the resistance of 5600, although it did touch that level once. Good thing is, volumes have come back mostly from the retail investors. Meaning, all is not lost and we might see some more upside on Monday.
