Derivative Statistics- Nifty Options
• Nifty Dec 2018 Futures were at 10,681.90 points, a premium of 18.40
points, above the spot closing of 10,663.50. The turnover on NSE’s
Futures and Options segment declined to Rs. 9,38,436.13 crore on Dec
24 compared with Rs. 9,58,378.42 crore on Dec 21.
• The Put-Call ratio stood at 0.92 against the previous close of 0.93.
• The Nifty Put-Call ratio stood at 1.26 compared with the previous
session’s close of 1.28.
• India VIX declined 3.61% to 15.4150 compared with 15.9925 at the
previous trading session.
• Open interest on Nifty Futures stood at 25.84 million as against the
previous close at 25.34 million.
• Bond yields rose as trading volume remained thin ahead of the
holiday. Investors preferred to invest in high yielding state bonds, which
led to the thin trading in government bond. However, the overall market
sentiment remains upbeat with the central bank raising the quantum of
security purchases under open market operation.
• Yield on the 10-year benchmark paper (7.17% GS 2028) rose 1 bps to
close at 7.29% as compared with 7.28% in the previous session after
trading in the range of 7.27% to 7.31%.
• Banks’ borrowings under the repo window of the Liquidity Adjustment
Facility (LAF) stood at Rs. 20,903 crore (gross) on Dec 24 compared with
a borrowing of Rs. 13,658 crore (gross) on Dec 21. Sale of securities
under Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reverse repo window stood at Rs.
25,515 crore on Dec 21.
• The Indian rupee was nearly steady as importers’ month-end dollar
demand and feeble domestic equity market nullified the early gains from
greenback sales.
• The euro declined against the greenback on feeble eurozone consumer
confidence numbers for Dec 2018 that dropped steeper than
expectation. In addition, the ongoing concerns over Brexit with the
dispute set to resume in Jan 2019 also had a bearing on the single
currency.
• Gold prices rose following the weakness in the U.S. equity market on
concerns of a slowing global economy.
• Brent crude prices tumbled on oversupply concerns, fall in energy
demand, political brinkmanship in the U.S. and expectation of sluggish
global economic growth.
• University of Michigan data showed an improvement in U.S. consumer
sentiment for Dec 2018. Consumer sentiment index for Dec 2018 came
in at 98.3 from a preliminary reading of 97.5. Expectations were for the
index to stay unrevised.
• Office for National Statistics data showed British business investment
decreased for three consecutive quarters as businesses reduced
spending due to the Brexit chaos. This means it is the weakest period
since the 2008-09 global financial crisis. Business investment has gone
down 1.1% sequentially in the third quarter. Britain's five leading
business groups have urged lawmakers to prevent a disorderly "no-deal"
Brexit.
