Strong festive sales boosted growth numbers in the final quarter of 2020 as India exited recession after two quarters of growth contraction. GDP for the October-Decembe

Strong festive sales boosted growth numbers in the final quarter of 2020 as India exited recession after two quarters of growth contraction. GDP for the October-December period is now pegged at 0.4% , the first expansion after the pandemic hit.&nbsp;India is now one of the few economies that saw growth expand in the quarter gone by.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Though technically the recession may be over but it is not all good news the govt has&nbsp;revised&nbsp;&nbsp;the&nbsp;full year GDP to reflect a contraction of 8% vs &ndash;7.7% earlier. Some of the&nbsp;internal indicators&nbsp;are also not very encouraging&nbsp;for example spending from the govt&nbsp;as well private spending have shown a contraction on a&nbsp;year on year&nbsp;basis.&nbsp;&nbsp;
It is&nbsp;definitely&nbsp;too&nbsp;early to celebrate the recovery as International ratings agency Moody&rsquo;s warns that the risk to growth forecast for India is tilted to the downside. Even JPMorgan&nbsp;has raised an alarm that&nbsp;&nbsp;a&nbsp;consumer credit crisis could derail India&rsquo;s economic recovery . For the weekend however economy watchers can enjoy the headline that India has exited recession.&nbsp;

In its second advance estimates of national accounts, the NSO has projected an 8% contraction in 2020-21. In its first advance estimates released in January, it had projected a contraction of 7.7% for the current fiscal as against a growth of 4% cent in 2019-20.
The economy had shrunk by an unprecedented 24.4% in the first quarter this fiscal following the coronavirus pandemic and resultant lockdowns. In the second quarter, the GDP declined 7.3% due to a perk up in economic activities.

It was a sea of red for the markets led by global cues and surging bond yields. Sensex and Nifty ended 4% Friday as the weakness wiped out the week

It was a sea of red for the markets led by global cues and surging bond yields.&nbsp;Sensex and Nifty ended 4%&nbsp;Friday as the weakness&nbsp;wiped out the weekly gains.&nbsp;Sensex lost the 50,000 mark at close while Nifty managed to hold onto the 14500 mark.&nbsp;All 50 stocks in the Nifty ended in the red and financials were the main drag.&nbsp;
Rising bond yields were the culprit that sent jitters across the globe.&nbsp;Bond yields in the US have now surged back to the pre-pandemic levels and even though it indicates higher growth it signals possible inflation and cost of money rising. The Indian bond markets are also signaling the same adding to the nervousness.&nbsp;&nbsp;
It was not just the equity markets rupee hit Rs 73.5/$ in intraday trade, the lowest level in over two months. For the week the currency is lower by 1%, which would mark its biggest weekly fall in 10 months.&nbsp;

Rising yields is giving traders an unpleasant déjà vu of the 2013 ‘taper tantrum’ where markets sold off aggressively as the money market

Rising yields is giving traders an unpleasant&nbsp;d&eacute;j&agrave; vu of the 2013 &lsquo;taper tantrum&rsquo; where markets sold off aggressively as the money markets signaled the end of cheap money.&nbsp;Even though the surge is not as dramatic as 8 years ago it is enough to send equities into a tizzy.&nbsp;&nbsp; So why&nbsp;do stock markets get rattled by rising bond yields.&nbsp;&nbsp;
 Firstly,&nbsp;Rise in yields indicate the money markets betting on the possibility of higher rates by the central bank&nbsp;as inflation bets rise. In the US its mostly due to improving economic data and traders worried the fed will shift low rates stance earlier than anticipated.&nbsp;Prices in India have been subdued so far but with sharp rises in fuel prices the RBI has also sounded off the concern on inflationary pressure.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Secondly,&nbsp;Investors also reassess portfolio allocations are yields&nbsp;rise,&nbsp;betting more on cheaper safer bond markets as returns become more attractive.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Finally, the cost&nbsp;of capital&nbsp;also rises significantly with rising yields and the debt pressure on the corporate sector enlarges in turn adding pressure on to the stock.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Dalal Street is feeling the global jitters of rising yields, indicating cheap money bets are lowering&nbsp;and inflationary bets rise. Wall Street saw the biggest fall since October and the&nbsp;nervousness has spread to Dalal Street as well with the Sensex and Nifty both trading much lower on the final day of trade of the week.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Bond yields in the US have now surged back to the pre-pandemic levels and even though it indicates higher growth it signals possible inflation and cost of money rising. The Indian bond markets are also&nbsp;signaling&nbsp;the&nbsp;same.&nbsp;The rupee continues to trade significantly lower to the greenback&nbsp;while brokerages&nbsp;are raising their&nbsp;year-end&nbsp;target for the&nbsp;10-year&nbsp;yield as well.&nbsp;
Financial and technology continuing to be the sore point on Dalal Street, mirroring global&nbsp;weakness in&nbsp;sectors.

Rising momentum in business activity led by public spending has helped the Indian economy take the much-needed exit track from recession in the Oct-Dec quarte

Rising momentum in business activity led by public spending has helped the Indian economy take the&nbsp;much-needed&nbsp;exit track from recession in the Oct-Dec quarter last year.&nbsp;&nbsp;Economists&nbsp;surveyed expect&nbsp;the economy to show a modest 0.8% expansion in the final quarter of 2020. Government will release the data on late evening on Friday.&nbsp;&nbsp;Public spending took the lead in accelerating activity as disbursements rose 29% in October to December vs a contraction of 12% in the previous quarter.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;The RBI Governor also reiterates that growth had become very dependent on public expenditure even before the pandemic hit. In&nbsp;fact, spending analysis shows that every rupee spent by the govt results in a growth of Rs 3 in the economy.&nbsp;Consumption activity was aided by the festive season and it was noticeable in the sales of consumer durables and&nbsp;non-durables&nbsp;in the final quarter of the calendar year. Auto sales numbers indicated a big recovery in sentiment seeing the biggest single quarter jump in the last 2&nbsp;years,&nbsp;though the low base also helped.&nbsp;&nbsp;This is definitely light at the end of the tunnel and not an aberration as indicators in January are holding onto the turnaround during the festive period. Markit India PMI has been above the&nbsp;50 mark&nbsp;indicating an expansion since&nbsp;September.&nbsp;But will this growth hold that&rsquo;s the real question and the market remains divided on the response for now.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;

SEBI responding to the trading halt has questioned by India&rsquo;s largest bourse NSE on why&nbsp;trading did not migrate to the disaster recovery site.&nbsp;&nbsp;The DR site is a&nbsp;backup&nbsp;site which is located in another city and is a replica of the main production site in Mumbai&nbsp;
In&nbsp;fact, the National Stock Exchange had informed brokers in October that for two complete trading&nbsp;days,&nbsp;September 28 &amp; 29 the bourse had operated entirely out of the disaster recovery site, notably without any issues.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ironically the next round of testing is due end of March.
SEBI has sought a complete report including the details of internal assessments which led to the 4-hour trading halt&nbsp;on Wednesday.&nbsp;SEBI however reassured investors that&nbsp;the market regulator&nbsp;would take&nbsp;all necessary measures to ensure rectification of the underlying causes&nbsp;including addressing institutional deficiencies.&nbsp;

The shine for the yellow metal seems to be dulling with gold&nbsp;prices&nbsp;falling nearly ₹10,000&nbsp;from the peak it scaled in August 2020. In fact, gold is now headed for a second&nbsp;monthly decline as it sinks towards an&nbsp;8 month&nbsp;low.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Stronger returns in the US bond market&nbsp;with global central banks continuing to support growth has dulled demand for gold. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs has cut its gold forecast, citing&nbsp;rising risk appetite for assets&nbsp;as a&nbsp;factor&nbsp;for the&nbsp;price&nbsp;underperformance.&nbsp;
Rising bond yields have always led to lower gold prices and with US yields hovering near 1 year high the demand for gold and thus the prices have seen a consistent correction. In fact, reports&nbsp;indicate&nbsp;&nbsp;holdings&nbsp;of the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, SPDR Gold Trust, have&nbsp;fallen&nbsp;to their lowest since May 2020

Private hospitals across the nation are gearing for the vaccine rush as they await more details from the government. India&rsquo;s largest healthcare chain&nbsp;Apollo Hospitals was quoted saying that&nbsp;500 million vaccinations&nbsp;in 60 days&nbsp;is an achievable aim. They also&nbsp;said they expect&nbsp;over 25,000 private&nbsp;centers&nbsp;to be carrying out the vaccine rollout from March 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The price still remains a question, reports in digital media indicate the govt is looking at ₹400/dose which&nbsp;translates&nbsp;to ₹800 for the full vaccination schedule.&nbsp;Most private hospitals have reiterated that if the procurement price for the hospitals is the same as the govt then pricing of ₹400/dose will be adequate to cover the costs.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;
