Coinbase settles with New York regulators for $100 million: NYT

US-based cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global has reached a $100 million settlement with New York regulators, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.

State financial regulators found the company had allowed customers to “open accounts without conducting sufficient background checks, in violation of anti-money-laundering laws,” prompting a $50 million fine, the Times said. Another $50 million will be required to boost compliance efforts aimed at blocking potential criminals from using the exchange, it reported.

Fed meeting minutes may point to rate-hike endgame, new debate phase

The Federal Reserve ended 2022 with a firm promise at its December policy meeting that interest rates would continue rising this year, but at a slower pace and perhaps only by another three-quarters of a percentage point.

That session’s readout, due to be released at 2 p.m. EST (1900 GMT) on Wednesday, may provide further insight into just how the endgame of the current tightening cycle will play out, and how deeply Fed officials are beginning to weigh risks to economic growth against their top-of-mind concern about inflation.

The overall tone of the minutes is still likely to show inflation has top billing among policymakers. It has been slowing for several months, but as of November the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge – the personal consumption expenditures price index – was still rising at a 5.5% annual rate, more than twice the U.S. central bank’s 2% target.

Tech View: Nifty forms long bear candle. What traders should do on Thursday

While negating the higher low formation of the last four trading sessions, headline equity index Nifty today formed a long bear candle on the daily charts and indicated a downside breakout of the recent sideways range movement in the market.

Now, it has to hold 18018 zones for an up move towards 18181 and 18250 zones whereas support exists at 17950 then 17777 zones, said Chandan Taparia of Motilal Oswal.

India VIX was up by 5.68% from 14.38 to 15.19 levels. Volatility spiked today paving way for bears in the market.

Option data suggests a broader trading range in between 17800 to 18500 zones while an immediate trading range in between 17900 to 18250 zones.

Bears remained at the helm, taking the benchmark Nifty about 190 points lower from the previous closing. On the 4-hourly chart, the index has given an upward consolidation breakdown; besides, the shorter moving average (21 EMA) finished the day lower than the longer moving average (50 EMA), confirming the bearish scenario. With the momentum indicator RSI (14) remaining in a bearish crossover, the trend and momentum of the price suggest a rise in bearish bets in the market. Further declines are possible in the future that may bring the index down to 17,950. Again, below 17,950, the index may slip to 17,800 and lower. On the higher end, 18,155–18,200 may act as immediate resistance, above which the bulls may gain strength.

The domestic market affected by the worries in the global market, traded with deep cuts. Fears over aggressive rate hikes resurfaced ahead of the release of Fed meeting minutes, a meeting that left the door open for additional hikes. Apart from global cues, the domestic market will pay close attention to corporate earnings. India’s services PMI expanded to 58.5 in December owing to stronger growth in new business.

– Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services

Consensus long positioning in Financials names ahead of potentially strong 3Q earnings season is evident from tepid reactions to reasonably strong business updates from all financial institutions which have reported preliminary business updates until now. As a result, the bar for upside surprises in earnings reports is likely to be higher. With much of global investors’ focus being drawn to the ongoing re-opening of Chinese economy, India is expected to see relatively muted flows in the coming month. Moreover, any spike in commodities prices may be a potential headwind to earnings going ahead. Channel checks across categories point to relatively weak demand in entry level consumer durables and autos – hence, these segments are expected to report weak numbers. IT stocks would be watched for commentary on demand trends as consensus currently expects only a mild moderation of growth trajectory. Railways and Infra sectors have historically performed well in the lead-up to Union Budget and this trend is expected to continue.

Nexus Venture eyes $700 million fund to bet on India, US tech startups

Nexus Venture Partners is in advanced talks to raise a $700 million fund, the second-biggest such pool to be garnered in India in the past year, to invest in domestic and U.S.-based technology firms, two sources with direct knowledge said.

The planned fund raising, which one of the sources said will close within two months, is an indication that investors may be starting to get more comfortable with Indian technology company valuations after the poor market performance in 2022 of some high-flying startups and amid a global tech sector rout.

It would also expand the pool of funds available to startups, at a time when fundraising by Indian startups fell by a third last year to $24 billion, Venture Intelligence data showed.

A significant recent market trend is the disconnect between US and Indian markets. On many days the Indian market has closed positively after negative closing in US markets. The fundamental reason for this disconnect is the resilience of the Indian economy even in the context of a sharp slowdown in global growth expected this year. This disconnect is likely to continue since data indicates continuation of the Indian economy’s outperformance. Latest data on credit growth from HDFC and IndusInd bank is impressive and augurs well for banking stocks. The data of air travel reaching pre-Covid levels indicates robust economic activity. The decline in US 10-year bond yield to 3.75 % and Brent declining to $82 are positives for India. India’s outperformance in the economy and markets is set to continue, but concerns of US recession and high valuations will put a cap on the upside.
