• Indian equity markets closed in the red for the second consecutive day
amid volatile trade especially in the second half of the session. Markets
fell even though the Monetary Policy Committee kept policy rates
unchanged, which was in line with expectations. Metal stocks came under
pressure as prices of industrial metals declined over trade war concerns,
thereby weighing on the indices. Auto stocks also witnessed steep decline
after a major credit agency lowered the credit rating of a luxury car unit of
an auto major.
• Further, weak global cues due to sharp fall in long-term U.S. Treasury
yields and resurgent trade concerns raised worries about global economic
growth, thereby weighing on the investor sentiment.
• Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 fell 0.69% and
0.80% to close at 35,884.41 and 10,782.90, respectively. S&P BSE Mid-Cap
and S&P BSE Small Cap fell 1.22% and 1.21%, respectively.
• The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 1,826 scrips declining
and 746 scrips advancing. A total of 146 scrips remained unchanged.
• On the BSE sectoral front, S&P BSE Metal stood as the major loser,
followed by S&P BSE Auto and S&P BSE Basic Materials.
• The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) in its fifth bi-monthly monetary
policy review for FY19 kept key policy repo rate on hold for the second
consecutive time after it increased the same by 25 bps each in Jun 2018
and Aug 2018. The move comes as MPC is of the view that even though
retail inflation came down sharply in Oct 2018, inflation in the fuel and
light group remained at elevated levels. MPC also noted that concerns of a
global trade war, slowing down of global demand and tightening of
monetary policies across the globe may adversely impact the growth
prospects of the Indian economy.
• The Monetary Policy Committee has proposed to lower the Statutory
Liquidity Ratio (SLR) by 25 basis points (bps) every calendar quarter until it
reaches 18% of Net Demand and Time Liabilities (NDTL).
• On the inflation front, MPC lowered its retail inflation outlook. Including
the HRA impact, MPC lowered the retail inflation outlook to 2.7%-3.2% for
second half of FY19 as against its earlier projection of 3.9%-4.5%. For the
first half of FY20, MPC projected retail inflation in the range of 3.8% to
4.2%. MPC lowered its projection of retail inflation due to weakening of
food prices, sharp fall in international crude oil prices, fading effect of the
7th Central Pay Commission’s HRA and on the assumption that monsoon
will remain normal. However, MPC noted a broad-based increase in
inflation in non-food groups.
• MPC retained its expectation for gross domestic product (GDP) growth
at 7.4% for FY19. It expects GDP growth to be 7.5% in the first half of
FY20. MPC expects that going forward, financial market volatility, slowing
global demand and rising trade tensions may adversely impact exports
from the country.
• The Monetary Policy Committee has decided that Reserve Bank of India
will provide information on daily Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) balance of the
banking system to the market participants on the very next day.
Accordingly, with effect from Dec 6, 2018, the daily Money Market
Operations press release will contain the CRR figure for the previous day.

• Asian markets fell tracking weak cues from U.S. after 10-year Treasury
yield fell to its lowest level in three months, signaling worries about long-
term economic growth. Meanwhile, investors are sceptical around the
U.S.-China trade agreement announced over the weekend. Today (as of
Dec 06), Asian markets opened lower as investors were concerned ahead
of a closely watched meeting by the Organization of the Petroleum
Exporting Countries (OPEC). Both Nikkei and Hangseng were trading
down 1.56% and 2.26%, respectively (as at 8.a.m. IST).
• As per the last close, European markets closed lower as U.S.-China trade
war worries worsened investor fears about global economic growth.
Brexit-related uncertainty also contributed to the losses.
• U.S markets were closed on account of National Day of Mourning for a
former U.S. President.
