Market Outlook
The R word takes centerstage
January marked a tumultuous beginning for stocks in 2008, not just in India, but across the world. The reality of a U.S recession, that may be already underway, is no longer in doubt. What will now be closely watched is how deep and protracted such a recession will be. The U.K also appears set to join this rather unenviable position. The effects will N. Prasad continue to be felt in the global Chief Investment Officer economy and markets over the next few months, though the degree of impact now closely linked - may get differentiated over the course of 2008. The principal risks apart from the U.S recession story already largely in the price are a Chinese slowdown and earnings downgrades / negative earnings surprises. This was the substance of what we wrote in our note on the markets on January 22, 2008, when there was a downward freeze: As the Sensex hit a low of about 15.3K on January 22, 2008 and the steeper correction in mid- and small-cap stocks that opened up the valuation gap yet again, we highlighted a subtle shift on our near- and medium-term outlook that had been distinctly cautious since late September 2007; we have always been positive on the long -term outlook, and, as a fund house, we are the more so now, in the wake of the decline in January. We believe a corrective & consolidation phase will be healthy for the markets and investors, despite the nearterm pain. The recovery may, however, only be gradual this time around and interspersed with high volatility, especially in the first half of the year. Any notable weakness linked to global trends is likely to offer a more enriching entry points for investors with a long-term perspective. Our broad thought process on the prospects for the economy and markets is unchanged from what we articulated in detail in India Outlook 2008, available at www.sundarambnpparibas.in or on request by mail to service@sundarambnpparibas.in. The corrective phase: Equities in India have taken a knock in January with the Nifty & Sensex lower by 29 % from peak levels after the freeze on January 22 immediately on opening. The decline is attributable mainly to the concerns flowing through from the global markets and excesses in the primary markets in India. The rising probability of a slowdown/recession in the U.S an aspect that has been highlighted in the Market Outlook of Sundaram BNP Paribas Asset Management for the past several months now had not been factored in, awash as emerging markets had been with liquidity since late August. This state of bliss was unlikely to last in the wake of the deep problems in the economies of the U.S & U.K, and a few other European countries such as Spain & Ireland, to name a couple. Markets in India have intricately become linked to global trends over the past five years. There have been several instances of global-linked declines in Indian equities and the trends over the past month are just the latest. It is for this reason Sundaram BNP Paribas Asset Management maintained a cautious view on the markets since late September; this has been highlighted in our Market Outlook and Fact Sheet documents published since first week of October 2007. Liquidity gush, then risk aversion: India has been a principal beneficiary of the gush of liquidity in the wake of the formal acceptance of the sub-prime crisis as reality in August 2007 that has since taken wings to engulf multiple parts of the credit market in the U.S and parts of the developed world. Large-cap stocks in India had been story of the rally in August-October 2007 when FII buying was at the forefront; mid- and small-caps also enjoyed a long overdue catch-up rally from late November supported by domestic retail and institutional investors. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were the drivers in the August-mid October period when their net flows touched more than $ 10 billion in the space of a few weeks. Their level of activity became moderate in the aftermath of the new regulatory framework announced by the Securities and Exchange Board of India for FIIs in October. Despite this development, markets held close to peak levels on the support provided by domestic institutional investors, especially insurance companies, as well as speculative trading support with rising retail participation, especially through the derivatives market. Pockets of excesses had emerged. Pricing greed in IPOs has also become increasingly prevalent. We have had a reality check now with FII outflows, retail investors getting badly hurt - especially in futures & options, flop-show in IPOs and a sub-par listing for Reliance Power that attracted widespread investor interest. The R-Word dominates sentiment: As a high-beta market during that phase of major gains between August and December, it was only likely that globally-driven weakness in markets, linked to the U.S recession will also result in India taking a hit. This is what has happened now. Specific to India, the flow of funds towards the IPOs of Reliance Power & Future Capital also led to sizeable diversion of liquidity to the primary market. There are also concerns on the impact on India of a U.S recession. Our view on this aspect has been detailed in investor communication since October and also in India 2008 Outlook document.

Summary on the R Effect: Here is a quick snapshot from India Outlook 2008 of the likely impact of the U.S recession and trends: A recession in the U.S is expected to shave 40-80 basis from GDP growth in India in FY 09. In any case, just on the back of rising interest rates and capacity constraints in India, GDP growth was expected to be lower in FY 09 and impact of any U.S recession will be incremental. Despite the likely declines, GDP may stay in the 8-per cent plus category in FY 09 and start to gradually move higher from CY 2009 / FY 2010. A Chinese slowdown has also emerged on the radar as its export intensive economy may be more vulnerable to a U.S slowdown. This may have limited impact on India as exports to China account for less than 1 % of GDP and the export basket is predominantly commodities. Decline in commodity prices may be beneficial to India Inc on a collective basis though specific companies may be hurt. Pointers suggest that even in the event of aggressive Fed rate cuts and fiscal stimulus, the ongoing problem is likely last longer and has a deeper impact on the economy in the U.S and parts of the developed world. The Indian economy is now in a far superior shape as compared to periods of past U.S recessions. In the domestic context, the RBI is well placed to adjust policy tools to stave off any threat of deep impacts on the economy though meaningful cuts are unlikely in 2008. Markets have been, and will be impacted from a sentiment and liquidity perspective, given the magnitude of unfolding events; this will lead to phases of high volatility. The recovery phase may also not be as swift as in May 2006 & in 2007. We reiterate our circumspect yet positive view - a moderate positive bias - for 2008 and India continues to remain an attractive destination in emerging markets space though it remains a relatively more expensive market.

Equity Outlook: How steep can the present decline go? At the nitroday low of about 15.3K on January 22, 2008, the Sensex was at a price-earnings multiple of 14.6 times & 13.3 times FY 2009 and 2010 earnings without factoring in embedded value for genuinely well-established businesses in companies such as Reliance, HDFC, ICICI Bank, Larsen & Toubro and State Bank of India, to name a few; the embedded value could account for about 15 %. This valuation is based on earnings growth of between 12 15 %; India Inc has comfortably managed to outpace consensus in the past few years even after factoring the expected slowdown in GDP growth. We will watch news flow to track if this trend continues. From a fundamental perspective, we do not expect the downside to be deep from levels of about 15K. Large-caps are likely to lead the recovery. From a markets perspective, domestic-investment led themes will continue to remain more attractive and can be expected to lead the process of recovery once stability emerges. Fixed-Income Outlook: We expect February, post the equity IPO, to distribute the liquidity evenly out in the system. This should result in short-term rates softening considerably before the March end effect comes into picture. We expect a surprise monetary measure much before the next policy in April though not it in current month. Timing the market best avoided: We believe investors should have a disciplined investment approach that ensures that they are invested at all times. It is always tough to get the call right at all times both on the upside and downside. If a person had Re 1 invested at all times in the Sensex since 1979, it would be worth about Rs 140. If you had indulged in timing and missed the best 10 days, the value will be lower at Rs 54 and if you had missed the best 40 days, the value wil be even lower at Rs 9. Long-term investors should use the ongoing weakness to enhance exposures to the India story. Our faith in this story is as undiminished as it has been since 2002 when we launched Select Focus & Select Mid Cap. The corrective phase underway has only yet again made the entry points for long-term investors even more attractive. Drafted 11 AM on January 22, 2008 with markets at a freeze with Sensex at about 15.8K; updates on February 11 2008

Global Cues
A frosty start to the new year
The end of 2007 and the beginning of 2008 have been marked by extremely erratic movements on equity markets, with the subprimes crisis and its fallout continuing to torment investors. Debate is focused on the economic health of the United States, where fears of a sharp slowdown have been intensified by the lacklustre data published in the early part of January (ISM index, jobs figures). Since the middle of the month, the abysmal initial figures published by the leading American banks have amplified the slump in stock-market prices throughout the world. On Monday 21 January a wave of panic swept all the worlds financial centres with the exception of the United States market, which was closed for Martin Luther King Day. For most of the indices, the fall was the largest since 9/11, although the situations then and now are not comparable. This reaction was in fact something of a surprise, given the absence of any new element. One explanation often heard, namely that it was due to disappointment following George W. Bushs statement concerning a fiscal stimulus, does not seem to hold water. It is more the spectre of a large-scale financial crisis that is alarming investors. Fears of a fresh wave of asset write-downs in the financial sector (and not only the American financial sector) are in fact resurfacing. The downgrading of the second-largest US bond insurance company is posing a threat to most guaranteed bonds and making financial establishments balance sheets even more difficult to read. Some people are even expressing fears of bank failures. In these circumstances, the publication of results for Q4 2007 could well further fuel short-term worries. To judge by the performances of the stock markets since the beginning of the year, there seem to be widespread expectations of a worst-case scenario for world growth. The other risky assets (credit, high-yield) are also being affected, while government bonds continue to benefit from the disaffection for equities and from expectations of more substantial falls in key interest rates. In the current market scenario, the acceleration of inflation is no longer cause for concern. A high-risk situation Gloom is becoming entrenched: The climate in this early part of the year, when the word recession is being more and more frequently heard, when visibility (concerning company results, analysts forecasts and the economic situation) is extremely limited and when risks are high, has deteriorated substantially. These worries, legitimate but perhaps overdone, are being reflected in high volatility on all the financial markets. The immediate situation has not worsened significantly in the space of a month, but this ambient gloom could turn out to be self-justifying as the weeks pass. The short-term risks must not be minimised: In the immediate future, these various concerns may continue to trigger off sudden fairly severe swings in equities until such time as the horizon becomes clearer. Published data both macro- and micro-economic are liable to be poor in coming weeks and it is probable that in any case the general climate will generate negative interpretations of future news. The possibility of credit card default in the United States could fuel fears of a recession through a collapse in consumption and to additional difficulties for the financial sector (securitisation, results from specialised establishments). The season for the publication of Q4 company results is starting in the United States and this will, in all probability, produce disappointments, especially if accompanied by discouraging guidance from companies for 2008, as is more than likely in the case of the most cyclical sectors. The first results (for 60 of the S&P500 companies) have in fact been disappointing, with a high percentage (31.7%) of negative surprises. Praiseworthy intervention The central banks have already shown that they would not hesitate to do everything in their power to normalise the interbank markets, thus dissipating fears of a credit crunch. Since September, the Fed funds target rate has been cut by 175 basis points (A basis point is 0.01 %). Even though the ECB has been showing less enthusiasm (to put it mildly) for cutting its key rates, it cannot be accused of inertia in the face of the difficulties of the money markets, given the substantial injections of liquidity it has carried out since the summer. A more marked slowdown in the European economy in coming months can be expected to galvanise it into action despite its still severe tone concerning the inflationary risk. Several members of the ECBs Governing Council have in fact already begun to place the accent on the weakening of growth. A coordinated cut in key rates, under the influence of the Fed cannot be ruled out. Appropriate US fiscal policy: At the beginning of December, President Bush announced an emergency package for highly-indebted American households threatened with bankruptcy and repossession of their homes. The introduction of a broader fiscal support package at a time when the US presidential campaign is just getting under way is a solution that had already been referred to by the US Treasury Secretary, Henry Paulson, when he declared at the beginning of January: Our most immediate goal is to minimise the impact [of the financial crisis] on the real economy. He recalled the primary importance of keeping the economy as strong as possible as we weather this housing correction. President Bush announced a re-stimulus package of around150 billion dollars (1% of GDP) to be implemented as early as March, mainly in the form of tax cuts. This announcement disappointed observers, who were expecting greater detail, but this would have been difficult ahead of negotiations with a Democrat-majority Congress. There has been a mixed initial reaction to these announcements on the part of investors, who have tended to see them as the acknowledgement of a very substantial deterioration in the economic situation. We ourselves nevertheless take the view that the introduction of a support package for the economy demonstrates reactivity and a determination on the part of the United States authorities to put a rapid end to the crisis. Rumours of major bank failures have further contributed to recent price falls. It is in fact difficult to imagine that governments will not do everything possible to preserve the stability of the financial system (and especially if the acquisition of shareholdings by foreign sovereign funds is insufficient to recapitalise the banks). We are maintaining our prudent stance Possibility of a technical rally: As indicated, in particular, by most of the risk-aversion indicators, much of the bad news is already factored into prices. The technical and sentiment indicators (Bull/Bear, Call/Put, Market Breadth, etc.) are currently oversold, suggesting a possible technical rally in the short term. Such a rise could be backed up by concerted action on the part of the central banks, but this would not solve all the problems. Caution: However, the difficulties of the financial sector will not be eliminated overnight and will continue to weigh down equity markets. The high level of aversion to risk and the economic slowdown have prompted us in recent months to re-balance our asset allocation in favour of defensive regions and sectors. These arbitrages notably led us to limit in the short term the positive bet on emerging equity markets. The investment themes (defensive growth and large-caps) that we have been favouring for several months remain valid. Following our last asset allocation committee meeting (8 January) we proceeded to make a further reduction in our position on equities, which we had already reduced at the beginning of October, and we are now posting only very slight overexposure. The downside factors and risks are therefore clearly identified, but the medium-term support factors have not disappeared: proactive action by central banks, fiscal stimulus in the United States, continuing abundant liquidity (foreign exchange reserves) and attractive valuations. Furthermore, in numerous sectors, firms seem capable, in spite of everything, of withstanding an economic slowdown (low debt levels, substantial cash, competitive positioning, etc).

Exposures have been more broad-based across stocks and as a result, the fund has 35 stocks in the portfolio. Exposure to metals and energy account for about 40% of assets and this also explains why the funds NAV slid more than the broad market during the global-events linked turmoil in equities.
