The markets are likely to open on a weak note on the back of weak global cues. Although this will not impact the broader markets much as the managers will try to hoist the prices of the stocks they own in order to improve the year end NAVs.

Hence if you see a small cap or mid cap spurt more than 10% amid thin volumes, it is not a start of a new up-move. This rise may be ephemeral.

Wall Street Skids on Oil and Greece

U.S. Indices were on the back foot on Tuesday with concerns of Oil and Greece weighing on market sentiment. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 55 points or 0.31% to close below the 18,000 mark at 17,983.

The S&P 500 tumbled 0.51% or 11 points to 2,080. The tech heavy Nasdaq Composite suffered the most, falling 30 points or 0.62% to 4,777.

Trading was light on the second-to-last day of 2014, as many investors remained away on year-end breaks. The day was the 12th slowest day of the year, as measured by total composite volume.

Oil and Greece were the focus of 2014's penultimate trading session in what was an otherwise a quiet day. Global oversupply of crude oil and political uncertainty in Greece caused Wall Street headaches.
Energy stocks were a drag on the indices. Halcon Resources tumbled down more than 6%, BP dropped 1.6% and Royal Dutch Shell fell 1.4%. The Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF was down 0.83%. 

Though Crude oil prices stabilised with the West Texas Intermediate crude up 0.35% to $53.80 a barrel, it was the long term projections that caused jitters. U.S. oil production remained at multi-decade highs and could undercut the prices in the near term. 

European markets moved lower, continuing to be pressured by Greece's failed parliamentary election a day earlier. Greece will now head to a general election to vote for a president in January. International investors are nervous that the left-wing Syriza party could win, putting the country's austerity plans in jeopardy. France's CAC 40, Germany's DAX and London's FTSE 100 were each trading lower, while the Athens Stock Exchange was down 0.45%.

Consumer confidence data came in at 92.6. Though this was higher than November?s 88.7, it was lower than the expected 93.

The Case-Shiller home-price index indicated that prices declined for a second straight month. But after seasonal adjustments, prices among 20 cities rose 0.8% in October ? the strongest result in seven months ? compared with a 0.2% increase in September. 

Amongst stocks, Neuroderm shares rocketed to a one-year high, up 194.2%, after announcing encouraging results in trials of its Parkinson's disease treatment. Trading volume was nearly 300 times its daily average.

Commercial REIT American Realty Capital Properties jumped more than 7% as activist investor Keith Meister's Corvex Management disclosed a 7.1% stake in the company. The investment firm said the company is currently undergoing a "time of transition" that presents a unique opportunity.

Precious metals miners rallied as the price of gold recovered from Monday's losses, climbing above $1,200 per ounce on a weaker U.S. dollar and falling international markets. The SPDR Gold Trust ETF jumped 1.4%.

The Dollar softened against most major currencies. The euro, however, reported a marginal change as against the dollar. It was trading around a more-than-two-year low following the renewed worries about Greece.

U.S. markets will be open for a full day on Wednesday.

China HSBC PMI slips to 49.5 level in December from 50 level
 

In a fresh sign of a slowdown in China's economy, the final China HSBC PMI for December indicated manufacturing contracted for the first time in seven months, with both output and new orders declining.

The final reading came in at 49.6, up slightly from the 49.5 preliminary reading of 49.5 from HSBC/Markit, but still lower than November's 50.0. A reading above 50 indicates growth, while a reading below signals a contraction.

Zuari raises open offer size to buy stake in Mangalore Chemicals and Fertilisers

The Zuari Group on Tuesday announced plans to spend Rs 398.2 crore to buy up to 36.56 per cent stake in Mangalore Chemicals and Fertilizers, about 10 per cent more stake than its earlier offer.
