Late wave of selling drags Nifty lower

30 Jul 2019 Evaluate

NSE gauge -- Nifty50 -- failed to hold on to its initial gains and ended in red terrain due to sell off in last leg of trade. Market settled with a cut of around a percentage point weighed down by sharp selling in frontline counters. Initially, the Indian benchmark made a positive opening, as traders took encouragement with SBI Ecowrap report stated that India has benefited from the US-China trade war by exporting more items to China. Overall exports to the US grew 9.46 per cent to $52.4 billion in 2018-19, for China the growth was 25.6 per cent to $16.7 billion. Some optimism also came as Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman called for a significant reduction in the central bank's policy rates and said the government did not intend to review the budget proposal for overseas sovereign borrowings.

However, market wiped out all of its gains to enter into negative territory and settled near intraday low level, as markets remained under pressure with CARE Ratings’ report that India is staring at a rise in food inflation soon, as weak monsoon rainfall hits the country’s food output. It said the retail inflation in the food components for June 2019 has risen to 13-months high & weak progress going ahead could push food inflation higher. Sentiments were further dented Moody’s report that even as more and more crippled banks come out of the dud asset tunnel, the heightening growth slowdown & the lingering crisis at non-banking lenders pose fresh challenges to their asset quality.
