News Hour: US-Iran thaw fuels hope in energy-hungry India

WASHINGTON: The United States and Iran are renewing direct diplomatic contact after nearly 35 years. Responding to Iranian overtures, President Barack Obama on Tuesday asked his Secretary of State John Kerry to hold talks with his Iranian counterpart on the sidelines of theUN General Assembly. There are expectations that Obama himself may exchange at least handshakes with Iranian President Hasan Rouhani later in the day in what may be seen as one of the watershed moments in 21st century geopolitics.

Cautious optimism marked the American response to Iranian initiatives at the United Nations. Obama devoted part of his 45-minute explanatory discourse on US foreign policy to Iran, saying he was encouraged by the moderate course chosen by the new Iranian president and Teheran's forswearing of nuclear weapons, including a fatwa against them by the clerical leadership. On its part, the Washington was not seeking regime change in Iran and respected the right of the Iranian people to access peaceful nuclear energy.
These mutual commitments, he said, offered the basis for resolution of a complex issue in which the US would recognize Iran's right to access nuclear energy if Teheran gave up pursuit of nuclear weapons in a transparent, verifiable manner.

The thaw, if it comes about, may not be as momentous as the one that followed the 1972 Nixon-Mao meeting, but it will result in cooling of global oil prices, an easing of West Asia tensions, including the conflict in Syria where Iran is a player, a dilution of Israeli-Iranian hostility and a constructive role for Tehran in Afghanistan.

"I don't believe this difficult history can be overcome overnight. The suspicions run too deep. But I do believe that if we can resolve the issue of Iran's nuclear program, that can serve as a major step down a long road toward a different relationship, one based on mutual interests and mutual respect," Obama said, underscoring the hard task ahead given decades of mistrust from both sides. "The roadblocks may prove to be to great, but diplomatic roads must be tested," he added.

In Tehran, Iran's foreign office spokeswoman Marzeih Afkham said the meeting could be the "beginning for nuclear talks in the new era."

US officials indicated that Kerry, along with his counterparts from the other P-5 nations, would be meeting Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif within a day or two, perhaps on Thursday.

The possible US-Iranian thawing could largely overshadow Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Washington (he meets Obama at the White House on Friday) and his UN engagements on the weekend, including a possible meeting with Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Sunday. But besides being relatively inconsequential given Pakistan's growing marginalization, New Delhi has greater stakes in the US-Iran thaw, because both countries are major energy suppliers to India.

In his exposition on US foreign policy, Obama pushed back at questions (principally from Russia) about American exceptionalism, noting that it was only the United States that out both lives and money where its mouth is. The danger for the world is not an America that is too eager to immerse itself in the affairs of other countries, or to take on every problem in the region as its own, he said; The danger for the world is, that the United States after a decade of war, rightly concerned about issues aback home, aware of the hostility that our engagement in the region has engendered throughout the Muslim world, may disengage creating a vacuum of leadership that no other nation is ready to fill.

"Such disengagement would be a mistake. America must remain engaged for our own security, but I also believe the world is better for it. Some may disagree. But I believe America is exceptional. In part because we have shown a willingness through the sacrifice of blood and treasure to stand up not only for our own narrow self interest, but for the interest of all," Obama said.

Asian shares slipped and the dollar inched higher in early Asian trade on Wednesday, as concerns about a possible US government shutdown and uncertainty about the US Federal Reserve's policy outlook made investors hesitant to take aggressive positions.

Commodity Market Update (Copper)

Precious metals drifted lower on account of profit brooking after posting a significant rally in post sessions on back of intact QE from Fed. Gold on CMX is trading at 1375.30, -0.90% or 13 points and Silver slipped as much as 2.11% to trade at 22.80 an ounce. We expect the declines to be continued in the following session with an immediate support for Gold stands at 1354.0 and a break below this will extend correction to test next support 1333.0. Silver prices are also likely to trade same, following gold. Base metals on LME are trading flat with Copper being the only exception to move in green while all other are trading in red. Lead is leading the laggards by a decline of a percent at 2105.0 while Copper is at 7355.0, +0.44%.

Besides Banks, it was again ITC, Hind Unilever,& Reliance where incremental money was seen flowing. Nifty spread remained firm between +25 to +30points but BSE Midcap underperformed for third day.

Friday the 13th…Indices flatten after choppy trade- It was a choppy day of trade with global cues mostly lower. The action seemed to be more outside the market with attention on the announcement of Narendra Modi as BJP’s prime ministerial candidate expected later in the day.

Given the cautious situation in the market after a recent rally, investors chose to ignore better than expected July industrial production data and CPI date. The country’s industrial production, which declined for the last two months, saw a growth of 2.6% for the month of July following an improvement in the manufacturing and power sectors. The Consumer Price Index based inflation also moderated to 9.52% in August from 9.64% in July, following a fall in inflation for most items, excluding vegetables. However, for urban areas, CPI-based inflation rose to 10.32% in August from 10.26% in July. For rural areas, it fell from 9.14% to 8.93%.

India's economy is expected to grow 5.3% this fiscal year, as per the prime minister's economic advisory panel. This was sharply lower than an earlier estimate of 6.4% but higher than the previous year.

Coming back to today’s trading session, the BSE realty, power, capital goods and auto index were among the major gainers. Even the BSE mid-cap and the small-cap index rose by 0.6% each.

On the other hand, BSE consumer durables, IT and the telecom index were among the top laggards.

Finally, BSE Sensex closed at 19,732 down 49 points, while NSE Nifty closed flat at 5,850

Morning Summary, Market Synopsis: 13th September, 2013

The Indian equity market opened marginally negative today with Sensex opening at 19744.54 versus the previous close of 19781.88 and Nifty declined more than 20 points to start the day at 5828.0.

We expect 5800.0 mark to remain intact for the day; the short term bias stands positive for the Indian equity market, following the better than expected IIP data released last evening. The rupee opened lower by 20 paise at 63.72 per dollar on Friday. In the US, initial jobless claims slipped to 292K in the week ended September 6 from 323K a month ago.

The Indian equity market opened marginally negative today with Sensex opening at 19744.54 versus the previous close of 19781.88 and Nifty declined more than 20 points to start the day at 5828.0. Technically, 5800.0 is a strong support and any fall in Nifty is most likely to get supported here. We expect 5800.0 mark to remain intact for the day; the short term bias stands positive for the Indian equity market, following the better than expected IIP data released last evening. The rupee opened lower by 20 paise at 63.72 per dollar on Friday. In the US, initial jobless claims slipped to 292K in the week ended September 6 from 323K a month ago.
