• Indian equity markets declined on recession fears as the U.S. President said
the coronavirus outbreak could last until Jul or Aug 2020 and the economy
could be facing recession. Back home wholesale inflation eased in Feb 2020
as food prices decreased, but coronavirus spread fears kept sentiment
dampened.
• Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 lost 2.58% and 2.5% to
close at 30,579.09 and 8,967.05 respectively. S&P BSE MidCap and S&P BSE
SmallCap lost 1.84% and 2.27% respectively.
• The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 751 scrips advancing and
1,677 scrips declining. A total of 167 scrips remained unchanged.
• On the BSE sectoral front, S&P BSE FMCG was the only gainer, up 1.24%. S&P
BSE Bankex was the major loser, down 4.46% followed by S&P BSE Finance,
down 4.44% and S&P BSE Telecom, down 3.46%.
• The Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations has approached the
Supreme Court of India to extend the deadline for sales of Bharat Stage-4
emission norms complaint vehicles till May 31, 2020. This comes as sales of
vehicles have dropped significantly in the last one week after the spread of
Covid-19. The apex court had in 2018 ordered vehicle manufacturers to
manufacture and sell only Bharat Stage-6 norms compliant vehicles from Apr
1, 2020.
• Government data showed India's finished steel exports plunged 8% in Feb
2020 from a year earlier, their first decline in eight months as demand from
traditional buyers in Europe and South East Asia contracted due to
coronavirus outbreak. India, the world's second-biggest steel producer,
shipped 570,000 tonnes of finished steel in Feb, as against 619,000 tonnes a
year ago.
• According to a research report by a leading public sector bank, a
combination of monetary as well as fiscal policy measures are required to
salvage the economy from the collateral damage from the fallout of the
spread of coronavirus disease.
• The World Health Organisation (WHO) has praised the Indian government's
commitment to combat the novel coronavirus. India has reported 126 cases
of the novel coronavirus, while 3 people have died in the country from the
infection.
• Asian equity markets ended mixed after reports that U.S. could pump in
$800 billion or more into the economy to minimize the economic damage
from the coronavirus outbreak. There were also reports that European Union
finance ministers are planning a coordinated economic response amid fears
of a global recession. Today (as of Mar 18), Asian markets opened mixed as
investors looked forward to greater stimulus to deal with the economic
impact of the outbreak. Both Nikkei and Hang Seng were up 1.62% and
0.34% (as at 8.a.m. IST), respectively.
• European markets gained amid hopes of more stimulus as the fast-spreading
coronavirus stokes fears of an impending recession.
• U.S. markets gained on stimulus hopes as reports showed the administration
is weighing a fiscal stimulus package of more than $1 trillion, which includes
direct payments to citizens.
