Derivatives Strategy by ICICI Securities: Long TCS, short Nifty

Recommendation: 

 

Long TCS August Future at | 2165-2170 and short Nifty August Future at | 11230-11240

 

Current Price Ratio (Nifty/TCS): 5.18

 

Target: 4.80

 

Stop loss: 5.40

Rationale

• Technology heavyweights seem to be immune to the ongoing market weakness. The Nifty has come down towards 11200 losing almost 5% in July while IT index is down just 2.6%. Sectoral heavyweights like TCS and Infosys have remained outperformers in the recent move.
• TCS has the highest Put base at 2100 strike. Post Budget announcement, it had breached this level but recovered sharply and hovered around Rs 2,100 for most of the July series before moving higher.

Asian stocks advanced on Tuesday in anticipation of a cut in U.S. interest rates later this week while the pound tumbled to a 28-month low versus the dollar due to heightened concerns over prospects for a no-deal Brexit.

More NBFCs will have to die if India's shadow-banking sector is to survive

The slowdown that began among India's shadow banks is spreading. Sectors that had come to depend on credit from what in India are called non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) are posting awful numbers. Insurance is slowing and real estate is troubled. The automobile sector -- which contributes half of India's manufacturing output -- is shrinking as stressed shadow banks prioritise survival above lending growth. READ MORE

EXPERT COMMENT | Quote on the CCD Crisis from CapitalAim

CCD shares have been hitting 52-week lows for quite some time in the last couple of months. Now, the unfortunate event of founder missing and in the light of the alleged letter left by him clearly underlines the crisis in the company. The letter in the media reveals that VG Siddhartha was under tremendous pressure from other lenders. From the information available, CCD is severely affected by the slowdown in the economy and liquidity crunch. We may see the stock to slide further to double digits if the clarity regarding its financials is not declared. The case reminds us of the notorious case of Satyam fiasco. Investors should avoid this stock until the whole situation is out and clear.
