STRONG ON CONSUMPTION<br />
10 Year Bond Yield India:<br />
Bond prices in India have been in an upward trend for<br />
the past few years, thanks to falling yields as the RBI cut<br />
rates and the broad macro economy improved. Bonds in<br />
India are rallying the most since September as revival in<br />
rains spurs optimism that better crop output will help<br />
contain food costs, which have a strong bearing on<br />
inflation. The RBI has injected Rs. 80,010 crore through<br />
open-market purchases on debt since April, boosting cash<br />
supply, while mounting speculation that a successor to<br />
governor Raghuram Rajan will be more aggressive in<br />
cutting interest rates has contributed to bond gains. The<br />
yield on the benchmark 10-year government bond has<br />
fallen from a peak of about 9 percent to 7.2 percent now.<br />
On the technical front bond yield had been in a severe<br />
downtrend since March <strong>2016</strong> onward and now heading<br />
towards it previous swing low of 7.11 percent<br />
Indian Rupee: The currency had been steady rising amidst<br />
the rising channel formation with its consecutive higher<br />
high formation in daily chart and probably heading higher<br />
towards 68-69. Elliot Wave study reveals that prices might<br />
be moving in a complex correction pattern (w-x-y-x-z)<br />
over the past two years and possibility arises that wave z<br />
where the currency is presently trading at is an extracting<br />
triangle. However on the short term perspective volatility<br />
is likely to prop in and failure to breach the support level<br />
of 66.50 would continue to maintain its uptrend. Though<br />
Indian rupee has shown remarkable stability in the last<br />
few trading sessions as important global events continued<br />
unabated, the latest being the all important British<br />
referendum to exit the European Union. In the near term,<br />
rupee will continue taking cues from shifts in global risk<br />
appetite as the top central banks are scheduled to hold<br />
policy meet.<br />
