Stock Market Latest Updates: Indices nearly 3-month high, Sensex jumps over 500 points, Nifty close to 10,000-mark; Bajaj Finance, HDFC among gainers New York: Asian stocks were set to come under pressure on Tuesday following a dip in Wall Street futures as US President Donald Trump vowed to use force to end violent protests in American cities, souring a previously upbeat market mood. E-mini futures for the S&P 500 fell 0.38 percent and Japan’s Nikkei 225 futures lost 0.34 percent. Australian S&P/ASX 200 futures rose 0.15 percent in early trading. The early indications came after major US stock indexes closed with gains of about 0.5 percent and continued to hover near three-month highs. As Trump spoke in the Rose Garden of the White House on Monday, live television images showed police firing tear gas to dispel demonstrators in Lafayette Park, across the street. “If American consumers were reluctant to come out of their COVID-19 lockdown cocoon fearing a secondary spreader, it’s unlikely they will feel any safer with military Humvees rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue,” Stephen Innes, Chief Global Markets Strategist at AxiCorp, wrote in a note to clients. As Asian markets prepared to open, dozens of cities across the United States were under curfews with the National Guard deployed in 23 states and Washington, D.C. The curfews followed protests over the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old African American who died in Minneapolis after being pinned beneath a white police officer’s knee for nearly nine minutes. The dollar index fell 0.4 percent, as risk appetite had increased on optimism that the worst of the global economic downturn caused by the coronavirus may be in the past. The biggest concern for bond markets was growing US government debt with the benchmark 10-year Treasury notes yield rising to 0.677 percent from 0.644 percent on Friday. “Most investors are saying (the protests) aren’t going to destroy the economy,” said Paul Nolte, portfolio manager at Kingsview Asset Management in Chicago. “It’s a roadblock, but it’s not as big as a pandemic.” The protests were largely peaceful on Sunday but turned violent in the evening. On Monday, US President Donald Trump urged state governors to crack down on protests over racial inequality that have engulfed the nation’s major cities, as officials extended curfews to prevent a seventh night of looting and vandalism. Markets were cheered by US manufacturing activity turning up slightly from an 11-year low in May. The report was the strongest sign yet that the worst of the economic downturn had passed as businesses reopened, though the recovery from the COVID-19 crisis could take years because of high unemployment. Similarly, in the euro zone, the IHS Markit’s Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index recovered slightly in May from April’s record low, although factory activity still contracted heavily. Oil futures steadied on Monday despite US-China trade tensions with Brent up 1.3 percent to settle at $38.32 a barrel and US crude slipping 5 cents to $35.44 a barrel. Spot gold added 0.8 percent to $1,739.75 an ounce. US gold futures gained 0.03 percent to $1,737.40 an ounce. In the trade dispute, sources in China said the government had told them to halt purchases of US soybeans after Trump moved to eliminate special treatment for Hong Kong to punish Beijing over its new security laws for the city. Though investors are closely watching for news on medical advances against the pandemic, the markets took in stride mixed news from Gilead Sciences Inc, whose shares fell about 4 percent . Gilead said that its antiviral drug remdesivir provided a modest benefit in patients with moderate COVID-19 given a five-day course of the treatment, while those who received the medicine for 10 days in the study did not fare as well.

IIT Roorkee develops anti-microbial nanocoating system for facemasks
A team of researchers at IIT Roorkee has developed a nano-coating system to be used for facemasks and personal protective equipment (PPE) for reducing the transmission risk of COVID-19.
This coating has been tested to effectively kill pathogens within 10-15 minutes. This formulation will be beneficial to frontline medical personnel for coating their existing facemasks and can be scaled up further for coating on their gowns, it said in a press release
“Facemask is a core component of the PPE along with gown, gloves, and eye protection for frontline healthcare personnel. This nano-coating provides an additional layer of protection against pathogens in existing masks and can curb the transmission risk of the disease,” said Naveen K Navani of Department of Biotechnology and Centre of Nanotechnology who led the research.
It was developed by a four-member team including Pardeep Kumar, Arun Beniwal, and Ajmal Hussain.

Moody’s downgrade expected, India unlikely to slip to junk status: BofA
India’s sovereign credit rating downgrade by Moody’s was not unexpected and factors like high quantum of forex reserves and prospects of a good farm harvest would prevent a further slip to the non-investment grade, a foreign brokerage said on Tuesday.
Moody’s Investors Service on Monday downgraded the country’s rating by one notch to ‘‘Baa3’’, the lowest in the investment grade, with a negative outlook on worries over growth and fiscal risks.
Economists at Bank of America (BofA) Securities pitched for the country to continue with the fiscal stimulus measures because of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
“This (the downgrade) is not unexpected…fiscal stimulus is critical for recovery,” the brokerage said.

Markets continue to rise at half-time
Indian markets at half time continue to rise for 5th straight day in a row building on to its opening gains as Nifty trades higher by 1.25%, said Aditya Agarwala, Senior Technical Analyst, YES Securities.
Further, Nifty crossed its previous session high and is comfortably above the 9,900 level suggesting bullishness he said adding a sustained trade beyond 9,900 will extend the gains to levels of 10,150.
“On the flip side if it breaks below the immediate support of 9,800 profit booking can be triggered dragging the Index lower to levels of 9,750-9,720. On shorter time frame chart negative divergences continue to get stronger suggesting that the uptrend is losing momentum which can lead to minor profit booking,” said Agarwala.
Bank, NBFC, Media and Realty stocks are taking the markets higher while Metal and FMCG stocks are dragging them lower. Broader markets are outperforming the headline indices as stock specific outperformance continues. European markets have also opened in the green, he added.

This assumes significance because NTPC is primarily power-generation company.
