Indian stock market and companies daily report (April 09, 2012, Monday)


The Indian markets are expected to open in red tracking cues from Asian markets which are trading in negative zone reacting to reports which showed that inflation in China grew more than expected raising fears of slowdown in global growth.
The U.S markets showed a lack of direction throughout the trading day on Thursday as investors remained on the sidelines ahead of the long weekend and release of the March jobs report on Friday. As per the U.S. Labor Department data, employment saw continued growth in the month of March, although the pace of job growth came in well below economist estimates. The non-farm payroll employment increased by 120,000 jobs in March against economist’s expectation of 201,000 jobs. However, despite the weaker than expected job growth, the unemployment rate edged down to 8.2% in March from 8.3% in February.
While reaction to the US monthly jobs report is likely to drive trading in the global markets today (U.S. stock markets closed for Good Friday), reports on the U.S. trade deficit, consumer sentiment, and producer and consumer price inflation are likely to be in focus later in the week.
