NEPSE Shows Signs of 'Reversal'!
NEPSE Shows Signs of 'Reversal'! Green Inverted Hammer Candle Formed in the Market, Second Consecutive Day of Uptrend, Beginning of a New Uptrend! The Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) has shown signs of improvement after a continuous downward trend. Recently, NEPSE had dropped below 2800 after crossing the 3000 mark. During this period, various negative news had impacted the market. Factors like unnecessary broker limits and microfinance companies facing capital constraints were seen to have a negative effect on the market. However, as brokers have started loosening their limits and other economic indicators are turning positive, investors are optimistic about a market recovery. Analysts have mentioned that for the market to cross the 3200 mark, some significant news is needed. Also, if margin trading becomes spontaneously operational, it could bring a boost to the market. Currently, brokers are not the only ones capable of margin trading, but if linked with banks, the brokerage limits could be reduced, which would support the market above 3200.

Political Influence and Middlemen Dominate Nepal Electricity Authority After Kulman Ghising’s Removal
Political Influence and Middlemen Dominate Nepal Electricity Authority After Kulman Ghising’s Removal After the government removed Kulman Ghising from the position of Managing Director of the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) — reportedly due to his aggressive drive to recover billions in unpaid electricity dues from influential business groups — the institution has seen a resurgence of middlemen’s dominance, according to multiple internal and ministry sources. Ghising, credited with ending the country’s long years of load-shedding and steering the NEA towards profitability, was replaced in March by Hitendra Dev Shakya. The appointment, insiders claim, was heavily influenced by political networks and business interests rather than purely merit-based considerations.

Stock Market Declines Again, Investors’ High Hopes Turn to “Water on Sand”; Technical Analysts See Correction Phase Nearing Its End
Stock Market Declines Again, Investors’ High Hopes Turn to “Water on Sand”; Technical Analysts See Correction Phase Nearing Its End Kathmandu, Aug 11 — After showing gains last Thursday, Nepal’s capital market fell again on Monday, continuing its downward trajectory despite having risen earlier on the back of the current fiscal year’s monetary policy. With the market’s decline, investor sentiment has weakened. A few weeks ago, when NEPSE climbed above 3,000 points, many investors purchased shares expecting the index to surpass 3,200. Now, those high-return expectations have turned into losses, with investments “like water on sand” due to market manipulation and mafia influence, fueling investor frustration.
