Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are the top news from around the world ahead of the trading session of December 6
-Yesterday, markets extended their recovery in a volatile session, gaining over 1% after a brief pause. Following a subdued start, a sudden surge in select heavyweight stocks mid-session lifted sentiment, although volatile swings in the final hour tempered momentum. Ultimately, the Nifty ended above 24,700, marking its highest closing level since October 21. Most sectors contributed to the rally, with IT, banking, and auto emerging as the top gainers. The IT index hit a record high, rising more than 2%, with Infosys and TCS leading the gains.
-Market volatility was largely induced due to uncertainty around MPC's policy meet and the RBI's focus on liquidity measures following a dip in economic growth, which is going to be the key focus today as governor Shaktikanta Das is set to announce the policy outcome at 10 am today.
-As of this morning, GIFT Nifty was higher, trading at a premium of more than 40 points from Nifty Futures Thursday close, indicating a start in the green for the Indian market.
-Stocks to watch: Afcons Infrastructure, Nykaa, Cummins India, Dr Reddy's Laboratories, Ola Electric, Ramco Systems
-The key thing to watch today will be the RBI policy outcome. A CNBC-TV18 poll of analysts expects RBI to hold rates whereas it could trim growth outlook.
-Asian equities tracked a drop in US shares ahead of jobs data that may help shape the direction of the Federal Reserve’s policy path later this month. Equities in Japan, Australia and futures in Hong Kong all fell, taking cues from the downbeat mood on Wall Street. The S&P 500 dropped 0.2% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 slipped 0.3%, their first declines in five sessions.
-In commodities, oil was mostly unchanged after OPEC+’s decision to push back the revival of shuttered production by another three months failed to lift sentiment. Meanwhile, Chevron Corp. said it plans to slow production growth in the biggest US oil field next year. Gold held its declines.
-Bitcoin pulled back a record high with some traders already seeking to hedge against a deeper retreat after the original cryptocurrency surged to more than $100,000 for the first time. The digital asset held it losses after news that Donald Trump had named David Sacks as a White House czar for crypto and artificial intelligence.

-A quick recap: The Indian equity market gained for the fourth straight day, marking its longest winning streak in two months. The Nifty 50 shifted into consolidation on December 4 after a sustained up move over the past three trading sessions. While the index closed in the green, it ended off its intraday highs due to a tug of war between positive domestic factors and weak Asian cues.

Shares in Hong Kong fell, while those in China were little changed.

Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are top developments from around the world ahead of the trading session of December 4
-First a quick recap, the Nifty 50 crossed the key resistance level of 24,350 during Tuesday's session. Last week, the index attempted to surpass this level four times but failed every time. After opening on a positive note, the Nifty gradually advanced throughout the day, reaching a one-month high as markets extended their recovery for a third consecutive session.
-In terms of sectors, heavyweights in energy, metals, and banking drove the rally, while defensive sectors like FMCG and pharma showed subdued performance. The broader market too has been showing strength with both mid and smallcap indices making gains for the last eight consecutive trading days. Most of the sectoral indices ended in the green.
-Now going forward, the market will watch out for the US job openings data and November services PMI data of India and the US, which will be announced today. Analysts expect markets to gain some momentum in the near term on the back of positive global cues, optimism around enhanced government spending and favourable monetary policy changes by the RBI.

-Stocks in Asia declined after South Korea’s political turmoil triggered by a brief imposition of martial law caught global investors off guard. The benchmark Kospi Index fell as much as 2.3% on Wednesday after South Korea-related assets all dropped overnight. Equities opened lower in Hong Kong and mainland China, and also slipped in Tokyo. The won advanced after losses overnight in offshore trading.
-Global investors are looking to this week’s US payrolls report and Jerome Powell’s remarks for clues on whether the Federal Reserve will cut rates in December. The latest data showed US job openings picked up while layoffs eased, suggesting demand for workers is stabilizing. Fed Bank of San Francisco President Mary Daly said a rate cut this month isn’t certain, but remains on the table.
-Overnight, US markets had a choppy and mixed session as investors bought into a minor dip but largely chose to remain on the sidelines ahead of some key data points. The S&P 500 ended just above the flat line to notch its 55th record high of 2024, while the Nasdaq Composite outperformed with gains of 0.4% as Apple shares rose to a new record. The Dow Jones underperformed for the second day running, ending 80 points lower.
-In terms of commodities, oil steadied after the biggest advance in more than two weeks. Gold stabilized after rising on Tuesday as political turmoil in South Korea and France buoyed demand for haven assets.

-The Indian equity market reversed Tuesday’s gains on Thursday, with the Nifty ending at a five-month low. The tone was negative from the beginning, however, buying in select heavyweights from the IT and banking sectors helped limit the decline as the day progressed.

-While yesterday was a stock market holiday on account of voting in Maharashtra, the Nifty50 finally broke its seven-day losing streak—the longest in over 20 months — on Tuesday. Despite a strong opening and a positive first half, a sharp sell-off in the latter half wiped out the day’s earlier gains, reportedly triggered by news of Ukraine's strike inside Russia.
-Today's trading session will also see whether the Nifty 50 bulls are able to defend the 23,500 mark on the downside, particularly on the Nifty expiry day.

The chip giant met third-quarter revenue and earnings expectations, but failed to meet the highest estimates for future revenue. Shares in Australia were slightly higher.
-The tepid response to Nvidia’s earnings may ripple across global markets, given the size of the world’s largest company by market value and its role in the artificial intelligence boom. Shares of South Korea’s SK Hynix, which is a supplier of Nvidia, rose as much as 0.9% in Seoul.
-Meanwhile, investors in Asia will also be looking to gauge the effect of a US indictment of Gautam Adani and other executives over the alleged payment of more than $250 million in bribes.

-Overnight, benchmark indices on Wall Street hit record highs after Republican candidate Donald Trump emerged victorious in the Presidential election and is set for a second term in the White House after a four-year interval.
-US Vice President Kamala Harris, meanwhile, told supporters to accept her election loss at the hands of President-elect Donald Trump but urged them to keep fighting for the ideals she espoused in her campaign as she publicly conceded the 2024 presidential race.
-All three US benchmark indices ended at all-time high levels post the Trump win. The Dow Jones surged over 1,500 points or 3.5% to close at the 44,000 mark. This was the best single-day gain for the index since November 2022. The S&P 500 saw its best post-election trading session on record, jumping 2.5% to close near levels of 6,000.

The dollar edged higher after surging more than 1% on Wednesday. Benchmark equity gauges slipped in China, Australia and South Korea, and were mixed in Japan. The Federal Reserve is forecast to cut interest rates on Thursday.
-The gains for US stocks reflected expectations that a Trump policy agenda favoring lower taxes and less regulation may support corporate profits. At the same time, Treasury 10-year yields surged 16 basis points on Wednesday on expectations that his fiscal plans and proposal to hike tariffs will drive inflation higher and erode the ability of the Fed to trim borrowing costs.
-Now back home, continuing from where we left off after Tuesday's rebound, the market extended its rally on Wednesday, gaining over 1%, bolstered by positive global cues and significant developments in the US elections. BSE-listed companies gained nearly ₹8 lakh crore in market capitalisation in yesterday’s trade. All the sectoral indices closed in the green. Amongst them, the Nifty IT index, reality and oil & gas gained the most.
-IT stocks were the biggest contributors to the market rally yesterday, as reflected by the 4% gain in the Nifty IT index, despite the rupee trading sharply lower at 84.29 against the dollar.

-Welcome back to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. This is your host Kanishka Sarkar bringing you top developments ahead of today’s trading session
-Early exit polls in the extremely close U.S. presidential election appear to give an edge to Republican Donald Trump. Trump won eight states in the election while Kamala Harris captured three states and Washington, D.C., Edison Research projected. The early results were as anticipated, with the contest expected to come down to seven swing states.
-Early results from Georgia, which narrowly voted for Democrats four years ago, could offer initial insight into how the two candidates are performing. Pennsylvania and parts of Michigan, both crucial battlegrounds, close at 8 p.m. local time.

-Back home, for a better part of Tuesday's trading session, Monday's lows were in danger of being taken out as the Nifty made a low of 23,842 on Tuesday. Then came the rebound. The Nifty Bank was the one that triggered the upmove with a sharp recovery from the lows. The financial services expiry, coupled with oversold setups on the charts led to a major short-covering move on the indices. By the end of Tuesday's session, the Nifty was back above 24,200 and the Nifty Bank, after a 1,000-point move, was back above 52,200, having traded briefly below the mark of 51,000 in intraday trading.
-All eyes are now on the United States, where the outcome of the Presidential Elections, which is among the most closely contested ones in recent times, will be known in just a few hours from know. Polls continue to show both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in a neck-to-neck fight. Sometime later today, there should ideally be a clearer picture as to who has emerged as the winner to be the next President of the US.
-Wednesday's trading session will not only be the weekly expiry of the Nifty Bank, that led the reversal during Tuesday's trading session, it will also see earnings reactions from both Dr. Reddy's and Titan, the two Nifty constituents that reported results after market hours on Tuesday. Earnings reactions will also come from stocks like GAIL, Oil India, Mankind Pharma, Manappuram Finance, Waaree Renewables, JK Tyre, Berger Paints, Balmer Lawrie, among others.
-While there are Nifty results like Tata Steel, Power Grid on Wednesday, broader market names like Delta Corp, Endurance Technologies, Power Grid, RITES, Rain Industries, Sonata Software, JSPL, Shipping Corporation, among others will also be reporting results.
-In terms of commodities, oil was steady after a five-day run of gains as the market monitored a tight US presidential election and Hurricane Rafael menaced production in the Gulf of Mexico. West Texas Intermediate traded near $72 a barrel after rising 0.7% on Tuesday, with Brent crude closing below $76. Rafael is threatening about 1.7 million barrels a day of output in the US gulf, and Chevron Corp. has shut some oil and gas facilities in the area.
