1. The World This Week
June 10 – June 14, 2013

2. Equity View:
Last week we witnessed almost 1.2% correction in Nifty which was the fourth consecutive week of
negative closing for Nifty. What we saw unfolding was a mild correction from the peak level of 6150 of
Nifty. We believe that there are no changes in the macro economic stance and we continue to be positive
on the equity markets in the short to medium term.
This week is going to be quite eventful in terms of policy events. Today, RBI came out with its monetary
policy in which it kept the REPO rate and the CRR unchanged. We have seen significant easing in the
monetary policy in the last several months with 75bps cut in Repo so far this calendar.
For the month of May, the WPI inflation fell to 4.7% and the core inflation to around 2.4% which might
give RBI the necessary quotient to go ahead with rate cuts in its future monetary policies. The CPI
inflation number continues to remain high at 9.3% which is still above the comfort level. We believe that
with a normal monsoon expected this year, the food and vegetable prices would cool off which would
indeed lead to the reduction in the CPI numbers.
Fitch changed the Indian sovereign debt outlook to “Stable” from “Negative” while the rating has been
maintained at BBB(-) and this is largely on the back of the improvement in the fiscal deficit situation of
India. In FY13 the Fiscal Deficit came in at 4.9% of GDP, which was better than the expectations. This year
also, the Finance Minister has promised a fiscal deficit number of less than 4.8% of GDP.
We have a big event on Wednesday in terms of FOMC meeting in which the US Fed Governor, Mr.Ben
Bernanke, is expected to announce his stance on Quantitative Easing (QE). While there has been a lot of
discussion in the market on whether the QE will be rolled back or will be reduced in quantum this year,
we do not see that scenario coming out. We believe that QE in the United States will continue for next
several months and only in 2014 we will see some kind of tapering out of QE-3.
Meanwhile, the US macro economic situation continues to improve as the US unemployment number is
still at 7.5% and the US Monetary and Fiscal Authority would want to see this number to come down to
6% - 6.5% in near future.
