A thread on cumulative FII inflows into India in the CY2020

Background  : This was a widely shared link on social media and also tweeted by FM @nsitharaman amid a lot of discussion around the strong foreign inflows in Indian equities.

moneycontrol.com/news/business/…
India received ~1.6 lakh crore in FII flows last calendar year when most Asian and emerging markets witnessed outflows. This is encouraging stuff one would say. However, this is not the complete story.
The total flows in Secondary markets (Debt + Equity but not including FDI deals in primary markets) are marginally positive. It means as yields collapsed, FIIs switched from Indian debt to Indian equities.

In fact, last 6 CYs (2015-2020) net flow in debt & equity is negligible.

A thread on the new Registered investment advisors (RIA) regulations which are coming to effect from 30th Sept, 2020

SEBI came up with the final regulations/explanations yesterday. Here is the link to the circular

sebi.gov.in/legal/circular…
(Q1) Are there any new changes apart from the one notified in 1 July, 2020 and effective now?

Not much, but SEBI has given few clarifications where RIA has raised doubts. Good news is there are no further burden. The new guidelines are almost similar to the consultation paper.
(Q2) So, segregation for clients with respect to advisory and distribution remains?

Yes. Client has to choose one at the time of onboarding itself. Existing clients also need to choose one if they were doing both with same RIA.

Existing investments can continue to hold.

"Right now, we're in an absolute raging mania. We've got commentators encouraging companies to do stock splits. Companies then go up 50%, 30%, 40% on stock splits. That brings no value, but the stocks go up"

Very interesting comments from Druckenmiller
"I have no clue where the market is gonna go in the near term. I don't know whether it's going to go up 10%; I don't know whether it's going to go down 10%," Druckenmiller said. "But I would say the next three-to-five years are going to be very, very challenging"
"The merging of the Fed and the Treasury, which is effectively what's happening during Covid, sets a precedent that we've never seen since the Fed got its independence," Druckenmiller said. "It's obviously creating a massive, massive mania in financial assets."

There are some genuine queries regarding this. It was clarified by the exchanges couple of weeks ago.

Please see the new thread below for further clarification
(1) The minimum margin requirement for BUYING stocks from the client can be 20% of the trade value instead of (earlier decided) full 100% VAR+ELM

In such case, broker will make up for the difference between this 20% and VAR+ELM from its own capital. Most will be happy to do so
(2) 20% margin is NOT required for selling holdings from DP if your broker is doing EPI by 7:30 pm on T-day. Contact your broker to ensure this. Most are doing it as that means higher efficiency and more business.

The global economy is recovering at a modest pace after bottoming out in April, with data showing much improvement from May to July. But how long can this pace be sustained? Will social distancing measures and restricted global travel cap the recovery?
Those remain key questions as we gauge the "new normal" across major economies.

Sure, things are getting better with time but how much "better" can things be when there are fears of a second wave brewing in many countries/regions once again?
The health crisis remains a key factor to keep an eye out for and in countries with less fiscal space to act, not addressing the virus situation will just lead to the economic and potentially financial crisis worsening in the coming months.
