Near term view for the Auto Sector.

The hope of auto makers to sell more vehicles during festive season is shattered by the fuel price and the interest rate hikes.More pain for them with regards to the Workers Union woes.Better to stay away from them for the time being.Long term investors may get a wonderful chance to enter into them at a much lower level.

Nifty View- What happens in Europe? We were hearing just 2 days back that every thing is in bad shape. How the feel good factor appeared over night? Fundamentals have been changed over night? Difficult to perceive. Europe's effort to cover up all the black spots is very very alarming.
 At our domestic front. Petrol price hiked after market hour and the EGOM meeting today may decide the LPG subsidy. Now the million dollar question is what RBI will do today? Lot of speculation is there that RBI may take a pause today and Market will blast at this. But, the situation is not that easy. A rate hike would be more beneficial for the market in near term than a pause by RBI. Rather, if rate is hiked, there would a possibility of end of rate hike process, which will attract the investors to the market. However, the price hike of petro products, commodities would drive the RBI to prioritize Inflation over growth.
 
For today,we  continue our cautious guidance at high levels and also avoid fresh buying. One can consider going short when Nifty Future trades below 5040 with stop loss of 5080. On the down side, fall below 5000 we reaffirm the weakness and fall could accelerate. On the downside below 5000, 4950 will provide support.
