*Market Mantra: 16/03/2017 (08:30)*

*SGX-NF: 9175 (+70 points)*

*Watch 9195-9075 & 9235-9275 Zone In Nifty Fut (March)*

Overall, after creating so much buzz or hawkish scripts about incremental US rate hike in 2017, Fed ultimately delivered somewhat less hawkish than expected or a “dovish hike” yesterday with a guidance for further 2 hikes in 2017, most probably in Sep & Dec’17. Markets/USD bulls were expecting total 4 hikes in 2017 at each & every quarter with some intention/guidance about shrinking of Fed’s huge balance sheet size of $4.5 tln. Yellen is not so confident about strength of US economy to withstand such shrinkage of Fed’s balance sheet, but confident enough to bring the US rate at normal level; i.e. 1% above US headline CPI or at least core CPI, which translates a Fed rate of 3-3.75% by 2018-19 from present 1%.

A 3% Fed rate by 2018-19 may translate around 8 hikes of 0.25% and in that scenario, Fed may at least hike by another 5-6 times in 2017-18. USD is bound to recover after initial whipsaws simply because other central banks (BOJ/ECB) are not considering any hike, at least officially now.

Another 2 hikes may be normal for US economy, but it may not be good for EM & Indian market; China today responded by hiking its OMO/MSF reverse repo rate.

As par early SGX indication, Nifty Fut (March) may open gap up, around 9175 (+70 points), following upbeat global cues, except Japan as USD fall to some extent after Fed/Yellen sounds dovish or rather less hawkish than expected by the market.

Apart from Fed, Indian market may also look into today’s GST meet to assess the real probability of a July-Sep’17 roll out.

*Hints for actionable trading idea:*

*Time & Price action suggests that, Nifty Fut (March) has to sustain over 9235 area for further rally towards 9275-9350 for the day/in the short term (under bullish case scenario).*

*On the other side, sustaining below 9195 zone, NF may fall towards 9155-9115 & 9075-9015/8995 area for the day/ in the short term (under bear case scenario).*

*Similarly, BNF (LTP: 21215) has to sustain over 21350 area for further rally towards 21500-21675 & 21855-22050 area for the day/in the near term (under bullish case scenario).*

*On the other side, sustaining below 21300 area, BNF may fall towards 21080-20980/900 & 20815-20635 zone for the day/ in the near term (under bear case scenario).*
