NEPSE Index Analysis: Short-Term Bearish Trend with High Trading Volume

The NEPSE index is showing a short-term bearish trend after a strong upward movement, with the current price dipping below the middle Bollinger Band. The high volume indicates significant trading interest, which could lead to increased volatility. Monitoring the price action around the middle and lower Bollinger Bands will be crucial for the next trading sessions.

  1. Current Price Position: The NEPSE index closed at 2089, down by 24 points (1.13%). The candlestick shows a red candle, indicating a decline for the day.

  2. Bollinger Bands: The Bollinger Bands are set with a period of 20 and a standard deviation of 2. The upper band is at 2145.9, and the lower band is at 1910.0, with the middle band (20-day moving average) at 2028.0. The current price is near the middle band but has fallen below it, suggesting a potential reversion to the mean if the trend continues downward.

  3. Volume: The trading volume for the day is 4.575 billion, indicating relatively high activity.

  4. Trend Analysis:

    • Resistance and Support Levels: The upper band at 2145.9 acts as a resistance level, while the lower band at 1910.0 acts as support.

    • Recent Movement: The recent upward trend was strong, but the last two days show a pullback, indicating that the momentum might be slowing down or reversing.

  5. Technical Indicators:

    • Middle Band (Moving Average): The price crossing below the middle band (2028.0) can be a bearish signal, indicating that the index might continue to move downwards if it doesn't recover soon.

    • Candlestick Patterns: Look for candlestick patterns that might indicate reversals, such as doji, hammer, or engulfing patterns around these key levels.

Amendment to the Banks and Financial Institutions Act (BAFIA) 2073: Reforms and New Provisions in the Banking Sector

To further strengthen and organize Nepal's banking sector, a proposal to amend the Banks and Financial Institutions Act (BAFIA) 2073 is currently under consideration in the House of Representatives. The Ministry of Finance has pushed the BAFIA amendment bill forward to implement the latest practices developed in national and international financial systems, enhance financial security, and adapt to technological changes. This bill seeks to bring four major changes to the banking sector. 1. Proposal to Separate Bankers and Entrepreneurs One of the main challenges in Nepal's banking sector is the relationship between bank investors and entrepreneurs, and the associated risks. The bill proposes that any individual holding more than 1% of the paid-up capital of any bank should not be allowed to borrow from other banks or financial institutions. The current limit is 2%. This provision aims to tighten controls on investors in the banking sector and reduce the possibility of uncontrolled investments. Under Section 52 of the BAFIA bill, it is proposed that banks and financial institutions should not provide any loans or facilities to affiliated persons or those with significant ownership in any bank. This provision is expected to help minimize financial risks in the banking sector. However, stakeholders have expressed concerns that this provision might negatively impact the investment climate due to investments made by businesses in the banks.

Impact and Strategies When Interest Rates on Savings and Term Deposits Decrease

With the start of the fiscal year 2081/82, all banks and financial institutions have reduced the interest rates on savings and term deposit accounts. Commercial banks have announced an average interest rate of 3% on regular savings accounts and 6% on term deposit accounts. According to recent data published by Nepal Rastra Bank, consumer inflation is averaging at 5%. This means that something which cost NPR 100 yesterday now costs NPR 105. In this situation, a 3% interest on savings cannot keep up with inflation. Such a move by the banks discourages savers. Observing the decisions made by banks to reduce interest rates over the past 5-6 months, there is a possibility that interest rates may drop even further.

Challenges In Development Efforts, Social Justice And Prosperity

The proposed budget for the fiscal year 80/81 was NPR 1751 billion, but it was revised down to NPR 1530 billion. Similarly, the proposed budget for the fiscal year 81/82 of NPR 1860 billion was passed by the parliament but faces implementation challenges. It is concerning that, despite a proposed foreign grant of NPR 50 billion for the fiscal year 80/81, only NPR 3 billion was received by the end of Jestha. We have failed to gain credibility abroad and have not been able to raise other projected resources. This issue is serious. The inability to mobilize expected revenue, to spend capital expenditure, to implement proposed domestic and foreign loans, and the increasing burden of debt repayment are challenges to our journey towards prosperity. Today, we will discuss the country's economy and development issues. The socialist-oriented governance system mentioned in Nepal's existing constitution is fundamentally liberal, open, and competitive in character. However, there are implementation problems despite the provisions in the constitution. We have analyzed the challenges seen in development efforts.
