Market Snapshot by Bajaj Broking

Top Stories on 3rd October


- Trump administration delayed its plan to impose sweeping tariffs on pharmaceutical imports. The proposed 100% levy on patented and branded drugs remains under review, reflecting industry resistance and policy uncertainty in U.S. trade measures.

- ⁠The U.S. government shutdown added further pressure on the economy, with President Trump warning of federal job cuts and project suspensions. However, Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported layoffs fell 37% MoM in September to 54,064, also down 26% YoY, pointing to resilience in the labor market despite fiscal disruptions.

- ⁠Japan's jobless rate rose to 2.6% in August from 2.3% in July, while the jobs-to-applicants ratio slipped to 1.20 from 1.22. The softer labor market signals moderation in economic momentum, consistent with weaker global trade conditions.

- ⁠The RBl's Monetary Policy Committee(MPC) held the policy repo rate at 5.5% while maintaining a Neutral stance. Inflation estimate was reduced by 50bp to 2.6% for FY26E and growth projections were revised higher by 30bp to 6.8% for FY26E vs the previous meet, mainly due to higher than expected Q1FY26 GDP growth print. 

- ⁠Amid growing U.S. pressure over Russian crude purchases, Indian oil firms are adopting divergent procurement strategies. Kpler data showed state-run refiners imported 605k bpd in September, down 32% from April-August levels, 22% from August, and 45% from June. The decline highlights the challenge of balancing cheap energy access with geopolitical constraints.

- ⁠India's net GST collections slowed in September, rising only 5% YoY to just over 71.60 tn, 4.2% lower than August's 71.67 tn. The Gross collection rose by 9.1% in September. The moderation in Net GST collections was pulled down due to sharp 40% increase in refunds, after August's stronger 10.7% growth aided by lower refunds. This reflects volatility in tax inflows at a time when fiscal space remains tight.

- ⁠To support states ahead of festive season spending, the Centre released an additional tax devolution of $1.02 tn. This comes over and above the regular monthly release of 70.82 tn scheduled for October 10. The move provides states with near-term liquidity support for welfare and infrastructure expenditure.

- ⁠India's manufacturing activity eased in September as external headwinds began to weigh. The S&P Global PMI eased to 57.7 from 59.3 in August, still firmly in expansion zone but at a four-month low. Slower order inflows suggest U.S. tariffs are starting to impact demand, though domestic momentum remains resilient.

- ⁠The Cabinet approved significant MSP hikes for six rabi crops for the 2026-27 marketing season. Wheat saw a 6.6% increase to 72,585 per quintal, while safflower received the highest hike to promote oilseed cultivation. Farmers are expected to realize 7842.6 bn from 297 lakh tonnes of procurement, boosting rural income prospects.

- ⁠Consumer confidence in India improved modestly in September, as per RBl's survey. The Current Situation Index for urban households rose by 0.4 points to 96.9, while rural sentiment advanced to 100.9 from 100.6 in July. Higher optimism was supported by improved perceptions of employment and income outlook.

⁠Asia markets set to open higher after Wall Street gains as investors look past government shutdown

Other asset classes

- Spot gold was trading at $3,860/oz whereas Silver fell below $47 per ounce on Thursday after reaching an intraday high of $48.06.

- ⁠The 10-year Treasury yield (US10Y) eased to 4.09%, down about 1 bps, while the 2-year yield (US2YT=RR) inched up to 3.547% after a 6 bps drop on Wednesday.

- ⁠Brent crude oil futures rose to around $64.4 per barrel whereas US WTI crude was trading near $60.7 per barrel

- ⁠The dollar index (DXY) was almost unchanged at 97.90

- ⁠The benchmark Indian 10-year yield eased by 6 bps to 6.5166%.

- ⁠Bitcoin closed around $120,101 USD.

- ⁠The USD/INR pair closed at ₹88.68.
