India imports nearly 85% of its total Crude oil consumption every year.
India's own production has been below 700,000 barrels per day for a long time.
Why & how does rising Crude Oil hurt India?
A short thread 🧵
India imports nearly 85% of its total Crude oil consumption every year.
India's own production has been below 700,000 barrels per day for a long time.
Iran 17%,
Saudi Arabia 16%,
UAE 14%,
USA 9%,
Qatar 8%,
Others 38%
India import share for Oil from Russia is under 2%, an insignificant number.
Assuming that Oil prices are at $75 (last year),
India's oil import bill is ~ $165bn
India exports refined petroleum products as well. At $75 oil price those exports would amount to $58bn
=Oil trade deficit of $105bn
$100, India's oil trade deficit (imports - exports) would be ~ $140bn
For every $10 rise in Crude Oil from say $100, India's oil trade deficit will rise by ~$15bn
For instance at $120 Oil price it would be ~ $170bn
India's ex-oil Goods trade deficit at current run rate is likely to be ~$100bn,
At $100 Oil add $140bn to trade deficit and it totals to $240bn
$240bn is a large deficit number.
How does Balance of payment (BOP) stack up at this no.? Read on
India is likely to have a surplus of ~$110bn on net services exports,
$80bn in inflows through remittances (NRI's sending money into India)
and India sees outflows of $38bn in primary income.
Goods Trade deficit -240bn
Services surplus +110
Remittances +80
Primary income -38
Total, Current account deficit: -$88bn
How do we cover this on BOP?
India gets, on average, $45bn in FDI inflows;
+can get $10bn in FPI inflows totaling to $55bn
It also raises $25bn through ECBs & other short term loans.
So India's BOP can remain normal when Oil trades between $95 to $100.
What happens when Oil prices spiral?
Almost all the other heads do not move as quickly as oil deficit can. In that scenario it can become a direct headwind for India.
BUT, MOST Important point: Oil has to be at or above $100 for 12 months for this impact in nos
Inflation: For every $10 rise in Oil it adds 90bps to wholesale inflation and about 25bps to consumer inflation in India over a 12 month period
During a market correction, India's financial account can see FPI outflows which adds stress to BOP
-In case Oil prices trade above $100 for a few weeks and revert back below pre-conflict levels of $90, India will have minimal impact
-If Oil stays above $100 or say $120 for even 3 months or more, India's external situation will deteriorate
If there is a de-escalation / ceasefire, the Russian Oil & Gas will slowly come back to market and Oil prices will cool.
Russia O&G is suffering due to self sanctions by companies and it is yet to see full sanction by Govts.

Perhaps you have the idea that calling me " 1 lot Nandy" is somehow derogatory and a easy poke at me. Allow me to explain why I look at this moniker as a badge of honour
I have traded 1 lot continuously twice in my life. The first in 2003 after I blew up on my INFY trade. I traded 1 lot ACC fut consistently and made 50k in a month
The 2nd time in 2013. When I suffered continuous losses for 5-6 months due to a variety of psychological issues. Then I traded 1 lot Nifty options consistently for 3 months. After that 2 lots for next 1 month and slowly increased
I have shared these two incidents on my various interveiws and regularly share this in detail with my handholding students when I talk about trading psychology.
This logic of trading 1 lot to iron out trading issues I learnt from the interview of Anthony Saliba, who traded 1 lot in options for 6 months. BTW, Saliba was the only options trader to have been profiled on the original Market Wizards ( I read his interview and used his logic)
Sir itseems people call you as "one lot Nandy".. Is it true?

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho
There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.
Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.

Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan. Be aware of the information you\u2019re sharing and that it may be false. Always #factcheck #GeorgeNkencho pic.twitter.com/4c9w4CMk5h

There is a concerted effort in far-right Telegram groups to try and incite violence on street by targetting people for racist online abuse following the killing of George Nkencho

This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.

Stan Lee’s fictional superheroes lived in the real New York. Here’s where they lived, and why. https://t.co/oV1IGGN8R6
Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.
Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.
