FED INJECTION COULD NOT CURE THE BULLISH PATIENTS:-

· Markets opened very strong and Sensex was up more than 500 points in early trade. But supply kept the pressure on the market the whole day. IIP data was announced in the sun-outage period and markets lost all its gains as the data didn’t have much to cheer about.

· Metal stocks comprising SAIL and Tata Steel dragged the indices down. Tech stocks were other culprits besides SBI.

· Jan Industrial Production slowed to 5.3%. The big disappointment was the Capital Goods segment which showed 2.2% growth, lowest since April 2002. Consumer Durables continued to post negative growth.

Global Markets:-

Stocks fell in US on concerns that Fed will fail to prevent a recession as oil climbed above $110 a barrel, pushing down refiners, banks and retailers. Dow Jones closed down by 46 points. Satyam ADR lost 9%, ICICI Bank lost 5%.

Outlook for Thursday:-

· Unsatisfying IIP data took its toll on the markets yesterday and this thing affects fundamentally. One month of bad data is not a trend, but perhaps it can be a pre-cursor to some exposure cuts for India.

· Next trigger can be the Advance Tax estimates which will be announced in near future as some opinion can be formed about how Q4 results will be.

· 4810 and 4765 are support levels from where a bounce can happen. 4920 and 4960 will provide resistance. Today can be a ranged day between these levels.

· Catch them falling stock: - Tamilnadu Newsprint Ltd (103.55) is a leading player in the paper industry. They are the largest producers of Bagasse based paper in the world. It is a good dividend yield stock too. Buy from investment perspective.

· Buy Sesa Goa (3591) for target of 3850-3900. Keep SL of 3460
