Crude Oil Prices

 

Crude oil prices hit 7-month highs on Friday and snapped a two-week losing streak. Oil prices are rising due to worries about the extension of production cut by Saudi Arabia. The world’s second-largest oil exporter, Russia has already agreed with OPEC+ partners to reduce oil exports next month

On Wednesday, the data showed U.S. crude stockpiles fell a third consecutive week, as refiners ramped up fuel processing to meet demand ahead of Monday’s Labor Day holiday. On a weekly basis, Brent crude oil prices rose about  4.8% during the week, the most it has increased in a week since late July. WTI Crude prices jumped 7.2% in the week, its biggest weekly gain since March.

Higher crude oil prices are likely to impact the domestic markets, as India is the second largest importer of crude oil in the world. Traders should closely monitor the crude oil prices in the coming.

 

FII & DIIs flow

 

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were the net sellers in the Indian equity markets. They have sold shares in three out of five trading sessions and offloaded shares worth Rs 4311 crore during the week. 

Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) were the net buyers last week. They bought shares worth Rs  9570 crore, which is almost double what the FIIs sold, and supported the domestic markets from any significant fall.

After five consecutive months of buying in the Indian equity cash segment, Foreign investors were the net sellers in August. FIIs have sold shares for Rs 20620.65 in August, while DIIs have bought shares for Rs 25016.95 crore. The strong dollar and high 10-year Treasury yields are the reasons for FII outflow. Traders should closely monitor FIIs and DIIs activity next week, as the FIIs selling spree could further drag the domestic markets and vice versa.

 

Conclusion

 

Friday’s rally in the Indian stock markets indicates the market trend has changed, but for further confirmation, Nifty needs to close above 19550 levels. The global market trend is also positive and there are no crucial events or data lined up in the coming week.
