Equity Alert: European mkts rise amid higher gold prices, falling bond yields
MUMBAI--1529 IST--Most European stock indices rose modestly in early trade Friday, with the pan-European Stoxx Europe 600 gaining 0.3%. Italy's MIB Index outperformed its peers and rose nearly 1%. A rise in gold prices helped pull up European markets but on a weekly basis, indices were on track for a decline as investors assessed global bond market stress and higher oil prices due to the US-Iran war.
Stocks in the basic resources segment led the gains in the region with the Stoxx Europe 600 Basic Resources index gaining nearly 3% as a softer dollar lifted gold prices, according to Reuters. Antofagasto plc rose more than 6%, leading gains in the sector. Anglo American Plc, Glencore Plc, and Arcelor Mittal SA were up around 2?ch. Among individual stocks, Nibe Industries AB was the top gainer in the Stoxx 600 and was up more than 9%, according to Reuters.
Euro zone government bond yields fell after a week dominated by stress in global bond markets. The focus was on treasury markets after US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent's comments that the government would increase treasury buybacks. Separately, Bessent also said the US would impose "the toughest sanctions in history" on Iran, according to Reuters.

Equity Alert: Benchmark indices remain flat; bank stocks up, FMCG cos lag
MUMBAI--1340 IST--Benchmark indices remained flat even as most Nifty 50 constituents traded in the red. Gains in most banking stocks helped partially offset the underperformance of automobile, fast-moving consumer goods, and pharmaceutical stocks. At 1338 IST, the Nifty 50 was at 24234.45, up 2.60 points. The BSE Sensex was at 77539.44 points, up 1.72 points.
In the Nifty 50, Power Grid Corp., Kotak Mahindra Bank, Bharat Electronics, and NTPC were among the top gainers. Power Grid Corp. rose over 3% and was the top gainer in the 50-stock index, while the others mentioned rose around 1?ch. Interglobe Aviation shed nearly 2% and was the worst performer after data by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation showed the airline's passenger load factor fell to 82.4% in July from 85.1% in June. However, its market share in July rose to 67.4% from 66.3% the previous month. Among other laggards, Cipla, Trent, and Maruti Suzuki India shed 1-2%.
In the broader market, the Nifty small-cap indices outperformed their benchmark peers, rising 0.5-1%, while the mid-cap indices ranged from being flat to marginally lower. Notably, the Nifty small-cap 50 index rose over 1%, boosted by gains in the shares of Welspun Corp. The stock surged over 16?ter the company announced it had secured its single largest order worth INR 172 billion to supply pipes from its manufacturing unit in the US.
Among sectoral indices, the Nifty Metal, Nifty Private Bank, and Nifty Realty were among the top gainers, rising 0.5-1%. The Nifty FMCG sectoral index was down 0.8% and was the worst performer among its peers. Britannia Industries shed nearly 4% and was the worst-hit constituent, while peers Marico, Varun Beverages, and Godrej Consumer were down over 1?ch. Higher sugar prices and the government's recent preventing bulk consumers from stockpiling the sweetner weighed on the sentiment towards the sector, according to an analyst at a top broking firm. Among other sectoral laggards, Nifty Healthcare and Nifty Pharma were down 1?ch.
The Nifty 200 index was flat; GE Vernova, Bharat Dynamics, Hitachi Energy, and Motilal Oswal Financial Services were among the outperformers, gaining 3?ch. On the other hand, Britannia Industries, down 3%, was the worst performer in both the Nifty 200 and Nifty 500 indices. Among other laggards, Billionbrains Garage Ventures and KEI Industries fell over 2?ch. The Nifty 500 index was also flat, the sharp rise in the stock of Welspun Corp. helping offset the impact of major laggards. On the other hand, Balrampur Chini Mills, down 6%, was the worst hit constituent in the 500-stock index. (Deesha Jadhav)
Equity Alert: Capacity add to aid Dalmia Bharat volume, says Prabhudas Lillaher
MUMBAI--1300 IST—-Dalmia Bharat's volume is expected to grow at an 11% compounded annual growth rate during the financial year 2025-26 (Apr-Mar) and 2028-29, according to Prabhudas Lilladher. This will be on the back of the planned capacity addition and the entry of the company into the central markets. The brokerage raised the target price on the stock nearly 5% to INR 2,173, and maintained a 'buy' call.
The company's capacity is expected to reach approximately 70 million tonnes per annum by the end of FY28. Dalmia Bharat's acquisition of cement plants owned by Jaiprakash Associates over the next few quarters, with total cement capacity of 5.2 million tonnes per annum and clinker capacity of 3.3 million tonnes per annum, is expected to aid the 11% volume growth, Prabhudas Lilladher said after an interaction with the management. The company is also commissioning 12 million tonnes per annum in the South and West regions and setting up a grinding unit of 2.5 million tonnes per annum in the East region, the brokerage added.
Dalmia Bharat plans to save around INR 50 per tonne in FY27, led by a higher share of renewable energy in its power, logistics optimisation, and increase in direct dispatches. The company's renewable energy share has reached 48% with an additional 100 megawatts planned over the next year. Its direct dispatch has risen to nearly 65% from around 55%, hence, reducing handling and warehousing costs. The company's growth in realisations will be supported by premiumisation, with Dalmia Durable And Sustainable Performance cement priced over INR 20–INR 30 higher than the base product. Weather 365 cement is also priced around INR 20 higher than Dalmia Durable and Sustainable Performance cement.
The cement company's demand for the September quarter is likely to moderate around 4–5% on year as the monsoon has impacted customer sentiment in the Eastern and North-Eastern regions, the brokerage said. The company's volume is likely to decline in double digits in the northeastern region in July due to floods in Assam, while demand is expected to improve faster in the next 2 months of the quarter. Demand from the Southern region is expected to post healthy growth at 6–7%, while Maharashtra's demand growth is likely to be decent, the brokerage added.
In the September quarter, the company's operating costs are expected to increase by INR 150–INR 200 per tonne. This is due to higher fuel costs, seasonality, and elevated packaging costs. This cost pressure is expected to weigh on the company's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation per tonne. The company's EBITDA per tonne will decline by around INR 200 due to the combined impact of price moderation, cost inflation, and weak contribution from central assets in the initial few quarters, according to Prabhudas Lilladher.
For the June quarter, Dalmia Bharat reported a net profit of INR 1.88 billion on revenues of INR 39.90 billion. At 1326 IST, the shares of the company traded 0.5% lower at INR 1,892.80 apiece on the National Stock Exchange. Over 232,000 shares of the company changed hands on NSE, which was lower than over 493,000 shares traded till the same time Thursday. Over the last seven days, the stock gained nearly 3%, and over a month, the stock rose nearly 5%. (Ayush Jaiswal)
Equity Alert: Food, beverage cos slip as sugar prices rise, Britannia dn 3%
MUMBAI--1245 IST--Shares of several food and beverage companies were down Friday, feeling the heat from a recent surge in sugar prices. The latest curbs by the government preventing large consumers from stockpiling the sweetener further weighed on stocks in the sector, according to an analyst at a top broking firm.
Among large-caps, Tata Consumer Products shed 1%, and mid-cap players Varun Beverages, Radico Khaitan, and Marico also shed over 1?ch. Britannia Industries shed over 3% and was the worst performer in the Nifty 200 index. Notably, however, shares of Nestle (India) were marginally higher.
On Thursday, ex-mill sugar prices rose sharply in many markets amid strong festival season demand. Over the past few days, southern markets, particularly Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, have seen sharper upward moves of around INR 200-INR 350 per 100 kg.
The rise in prices comes despite the government's order late Wednesday mandating bulk consumers to hold inventories for not more than 15 days, in a bid to prevent panic buying and hoarding of sugar during the festival season. The inventory holding limit applies only to large consumers such as confectioners, soft-drink manufacturers, and food processors, who buy more than 10 tonnes of sugar per month. Both factors are adversely affecting sentiment towards players in the food and beverages segment, according to the analyst. (Shruti Nair)
Equity Alert: JPMorgan bullish on gold financiers; IIFL Fin hits record high
MUMBAI--1227 IST--Shares of IIFL Finance rose nearly 8% to an all-time high of INR 687.10 apiece on the NSE, rising for the third straight day. Multinational brokerage JPMorgan has initiated coverage on some gold financiers with an "overweight" rating, according to a post on X by CNBC-TV18. The brokerage has set the target price for IIFL Finance at INR 750 per share, which implies a 9% upside from the spot price. At 1222 IST, almost nine million shares of the company had changed hands on the NSE, higher than almost one million traded untill the same period Thursday.
JPMorgan said it prefers IIFL Finance and sees a turnaround for the company with the potential of re-rating. The broking firm has also initiated an "overweight" rating on Muthoot Finance and Manappuram Finance with a target price of INR 3,400 and INR 395, respectively. JPMorgan said it believes Muthoot Finance's underperformance so far this year offers an attractive entry point for investors. While for Manappuram Finance, it sees the company's turnaround gaining traction.
Gold loans rose at a compounded annual growth rate of 65% over the last two years. The brokerage expects structural growth in gold financiers as gold is turning into a financial asset that can be monetised. It expects the share of gold loans could be 10% of the credit system. The brokerage expects gold to be at $5,000 per ounce by the end of 2027. "Low penetration and high entry barriers should support incumbents," according to the brokerage.
At 1222 IST, shares of Muthoot Finance and Manappuram Finance rose over 2?ch, both gaining for the second continuous day. (Durgesh Nandan)

KEI Industries, Billionbrains Garage Ventures, and Avenue Supermarts fell around 2?ch in the index.
In the Nifty 500, Welspun Corp. was the best performer after the INR-172-billion order win.

Welspun Corp is shifting its focus to overseas market as demand in India was muted, the top officials said.

Equity Alert: Asian indices turn mixed as oil prices climb, bond yields gain
MUMBAI--0845 IST--Major Asian indices turned mixed in early trade on Friday, tracking losses in their US counterparts as yields on long-term US bonds rebounded. Rising crude oil prices added to the pressure. The strain was visible as Japan's Nikkei 225 and the Australian S&P ASX 200 fell 0.3?ch. On the other hand, the South Korean Kospi and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index were up 0.7?ch. Mainland China's CSI 300 was up 0.4%.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent vowed that the US would create "the greatest coordinated economic isolation in the history of the world" against Iran, according to a report by CNBC.
The rise in long-term bond yields globally translates into higher debt costs as tech giants borrow heavily to fund artificial intelligence-related spending, putting pressure on corporate earnings and stock valuations, Reuters reported.

Equity Alert: Indices to move in range Fri; positive bias likely to stay
MUMBAI--0830 IST--Benchmark equity indices are likely to move in range as suggested by the levels of GIFT Nifty. Asian equity indices were mixed in early trade. Though higher crude oil prices are likely to remain a major overhang, the cooling of US bond yields is expected to provide relief for the short term.
At 0759 IST, Brent crude oil futures for October delivery were largely flat at $93.80 a barrel. This was nearly 29% higher than the levels before the war in West Asia.
At 0818 IST, the August futures contract of GIFT Nifty was at 24325.50, up 31.50 points or 0.1% from Thursday. This indicated a range-bound movement for the market.
"Nifty (50) index bounced back from the key support zone around 24000 spot levels after filling the gap left during the rally on July 29, 2026," Vipin Kumar, assistant vice-president of research at Globe Capital Market, said. "Going ahead, a sustained trading above 24250 spot could lead the index towards the 24400–24450 spot levels, which are likely to act as a strong resistance zone on the higher side. Overall, the chart structure remains sideways as long as the index continues to consolidate within the 23600–24700 spot range on a closing basis."
South Korea's KOSPI gained almost 1% among Asian equity indices. All three major US indices closed lower Thursday with the S&P 500 shedding almost 1%. (Arundathi A R)
Equity Alert: US indices end lower amid rising bond yields, higher oil prices
MUMBAI--0745 IST--US indices closed lower Thursday as bond yields rose once again and also as a rally in oil prices added to inflation worries. The Dow Jones Industrial Average underperformed its peers and ended 1.32% lower. The S&P 500 closed 0.87% down, while the Nasdaq Composite ended 1% lower.
Bond yields rose Thursday, with the yield on 10-year treasury notes gaining more than 5 basis points to 4.704%. The yield on 30-year treasury bonds rose more than 5 bps to 5.248%, reaching its highest level in 20 years, according to a report by CNBC. The US treasury department Wednesday said that it will double its repurchase of long-term debt over the next few months. The debt buyback operation could be more than $4 billion, said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to CNBC.
Shares of Walmart fell more than 9% Thursday after the retail heavyweight missed Wall Street's expectations for its quarterly results as higher gasoline prices impacted retail spending, according to Reuters. This dragged down the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Other competitor retailers, like Costco, Dollar Tree, and Alberston, were also down 1–2%. Goldman Sachs fell more than 4% and put further pressure on the Dow.
Crude oil prices rose further on Thursday by around 2% to $93.78 per barrel, adding to the pressure. Oil prices were up more than 3?rly in the session after US President Donald Trump threatened Iran with the "MOST CRUSHING ECONOMIC OPERATION EVER TAKEN AGAINST ANY COUNTRY!" Bessent told CNBC that the president's comments were being misinterpreted. "I'm not sure why oil has popped up on this. If we are doing the maximum economic pressure, then that means that likely there will not be a large-scale kinetic restart," Bessent told CNBC.
