It was a day for the bulls on Dalal Street as the nifty hit its lifetime high, breaking above the 20,000 level, that too in the last 30 minutes of trade. The rally was led by the likes of Adani Ports and Adani Enterprises.
And there were many factors that led to it. Like the positive commentary from the G20 Summit; the rally in HDFC Bank, RIL & some PSU counters; and Foreign Fund flows. So how should you, an investor, approach the rally? Where does the caution lie?
“So you do not have to just have a rate cut for equities to go higher. I mean, that is misconception. If the real wage growth or economic growth carries on for other factors, then the economy could still go up,” says Manish Singh, Crossbridge Capital.
“To some extent, though, it should not come as a surprise if you have been looking at last six months’ data. So, the PPI number has been negative for at least three or four months now and this is just confirming things that we have discussed in the past,” says Manish Singh, Crossbridge Capital.
On Rush Hour, with Sumita Kareer, we are joined by Manish Singh of Crossbridge Capital. We discuss the inflation in China and how it has slowed down according to multiple indices. The data shows that the consumer price index of the country has also remained unchanged on a year on year basis. This is a steepest decline since 2015.
“So the Fed will clearly be looking in terms of first, they will be relieved that inflation is not a problem. It has not been a problem for some time but at least in the headline number, they will be relieved,” says Manish Singh, CIO, Crossbridge Capital.
“FX reserves that India has per RBI latest numbers, 560 billion euros or thereabouts. So, if India continues to buy energy in its own currency, then the FX reserves that we have currently in India are sufficient to fund 10 years of deficit. Now that is a massive game changer,” says Manish Singh, Crossbridge Capital.
On Rush Hour, with Sumita Kareer, we discuss what we can expect from the markets in the time to come. We are joined by Manish Singh of Crossbridge Capital who talks about what we and the market can expect. India’s market cap for the stock market is $3.31 trillion, while economies like Hong Kong and France have $5.14 trillion and $3.24 trillion respectively.
“I do understand why they work in this manner, because if you are sitting at Federal Reserve, your risks are asymmetric. What you do not want is that inflation number to go even slightly higher and continue to trend down, because that is a career risk for you, even if you know it causes a recession and that is what is happening,” says Manish Singh, Crossbridge Capital.
“You will see smaller banks close down or an asset move to a bigger bank. That is definitely going to happen in the US because if the bigger banks are paying higher insurance costs with the FDIC, they do not want the bad banks or smaller banks to continue. Further, we will have to watch what the Fed does next week on the rate front,” says Manish Singh, Crossbridge Capital.
The situation is unique in emerging economies. Western banks are responding a synchronized way to interest rate hikes because their rates have remained low in the past. ‘None of us would want inflation to go out of control.
Crossbridge Capital Group’s Chief Investment Officer Manish Singh digs into the detail of U.S. jobs and economic data, his view on Fed rate cutting and why he sees a U.S. recession ahead.
“Inflation will start dropping a lot from March or April onwards. This is across the board we are going to see everywhere. Whether we have a recession or not that will depend a lot on consumption,” says Manish Singh, CIO, Crossbridge Capital.
Investors will be keenly watching the U.S. Federal Reserve, where the FOMC will convene to meet on December 13-14. While the street is expecting the central banks to slow the pace at which it raises interest rates, it has in the past signaled that it is not yet close to hitting the pause button to tighten monetary policy given persistent inflationary pressures.
Crossbridge Capital is proud to acknowledge that its Co-Founder and Group CEO Tarek Khlat was presented with his Honorary MBE at an investiture ceremony on Friday, by the Lord-Lieutenant of Greater London, on behalf of His Majesty the King.
Tarek had been awarded this prestigious honour by Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2021.
The Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) honour was established in 1917 and was awarded to Tarek in recognition of his services to children in the UK. A supporter of the NSPCC – the leading UK charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK – since 2006, Tarek has chaired numerous NSPCC fundraising Boards, developed many key corporate relationships, organised major donor events and spearheaded new fundraising initiatives for the charity. Currently Tarek serves as a Trustee of the NSPCC.
In a statement, Tarek said: “It has been such a privilege to work alongside such an amazing and dedicated team of individuals at the NSPCC for the last 16 years and I am delighted that the NSPCC is also being recognised with this honour for the work that it does day in and day out to improve the lives of children.”

Manish Singh, CIO at Crossbridge Capital LLP joins ET Now to weigh in on the Russia-Ukraine war’s affect on the global markets. The price of crude oil has jumped and the markets are spooked. Indian markets have seen a slight uptick this week with both Sensex and NIFTY rising.
Deliberating over the issue, Mr. Singh stated that the Ukraine factor is one of the key factors at present as no resolution is anticipated anytime soon. However, he highlighted that non-involvement of the US on the ground will ensure that the economies are not entangled by it.
“I would still say that the Fed and inflation factors will weigh more on the market than the Ukraine factor”
Largecap stocks in the US have been trading like penny stocks. It is mindboggling and there has been a completely different regime shift. What if that gets into EMs as well and the index starts trading in a crazy up and down move?
“I do not think there is anything to panic about because signs of economic revival are so strong that people have started talking about inflation.”
We are delighted to share that Her Majesty the Queen has this week appointed our Co-Founder and Group CEO, Tarek Khlat, as Honorary Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE)
These Honorary British awards are conferred to foreign nationals who have made an outstanding contribution to the United Kingdom. For Tarek specifically, it is in recognition of his services to Children in the U.K. A supporter of the NSPCC (the leading UK charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK) since 2006, Tarek has chaired numerous NSPCC fundraising and event Boards and currently serves as a Trustee of the charity.

“If market flicks a switch from risk-off to risk-on on an ECB headline then what does that tell one? The bears have a very weak hand and staying power and the fear of missing out is ever present, real and growing as economies open,” said Manish Singh, chief investment officer at Crossbridge Capital.
One also has to understand that the market bottoms out much sooner than the economy and that has always been the case. If one is going to look at pure GDP numbers then one will doubt this rally, says CIO Manish Singh.
“I’d say it’s just profit taking and re-assessing,” said Manish Singh, chief investment officer at Crossbridge Capital. “The risk is still to the upside as economies keep re-opening more and more. Remember the fiscal and monetary support will stay long after things have opened up. We might see a lull over summer months but Q3/Q4 is looking bright.”

“It adds to uncertainty in Italy and by extension to the euro-zone.

It will open a can of worms in the euro-zone. Were Italy to succeed in bringing growth back on the back of that, the EU will have existential questions to answer, given they are so opposed to his policies.”
