The KSE 100 witnessed heightened volatility last month, first appreciating by 4.9% to 23,242 points by mid-September, and then taking a sharp 1,400 point dive to close at 21,832 points, down 6.1% from the mid-month high. On a m-o-m basis the KSE 100 was down 328 points (1.5%), with slightly higher volumes of 214.74 million shares average daily turnover (up 6.7%). Aggressive US stance against the Syrian government with increasing chances of a military strike caused jitters in international markets. Additionally, the KSE was also impacted by the recent weakness of the PKR versus the USD, the unexpected 50 bps increase in the policy discount rate, and the SBP move to peg minimum deposit rates to the policy discount rate, which saw the share prices of banks being particularly hard hit. In the T-Bill auction held on September 18, against a pre auction target of PKR 250.00 billion bids worth PKR 648.51 billion were received, with no participation in the 12 months tenor. The government raised PKR 506.16 billion through this auction. Cut off yields on 3 and 6 months T-Bills increased from the previous auction in the aftermath of 50 bps hike in discount rate. Yield on 3 months T -Bill settled at 9.4114% while 6 months at 9.4500%. Through the PIBs auction held on September 25, the government raised PKR 16.09 billion against a pre auction target of PKR 50 billion. The cut off yield on benchmark 10 years PIB settled at 12.5995%. 6 month KIBOR during the month moved in the range of 8.99% - 9.51%. Inflation for the month of Sep. 13 (YoY) showed an increase of 7.4% against 8.5% recorded in Aug. 13, m-o-m inflation was decreased by 0.3% against the increase of 1.2% last month. Core inflation has increased by 8.7% in Sep. 13 against 8.5% in Aug. 13. Overall, year to date FY14 (JulSep) CPI is 8.06% against 9.14% in the same period last year. Current Account Deficit for the 2MFY14 was USD 632 million against the surplus of USD 582 million during the same period last year. The trade deficit for the same period meanwhile, stood at USD 2.85 billion against USD 2.6 billion during the same period last year. The governments desire to bring the Tehreek -e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to the negotiating table have not borne fruit thus far as the TTP seems least interested in pursuing a reconciliatory path. Last month saw a further deterioration in the law in order situation with a massive bombing of a church in Peshawar, and multiple attacks on law enforcement agency personnel, one of which resulted in the deaths of a Major General and a Colonel. Even with the benefit of political stability, the government is struggling to deliver in the two areas where immediate results are crucial, i.e., the law and order situation, and the power crises. Despite a massive increase in borrowing from the central bank in order to clear the circular debt, the problem remains as a large gap between the cost of generating electricity and the amount recovered from customers means that circular debt builds up faster than the government can clear the accumulated debt.
