Stock markets around the globe took a relief after an almost a fortnight of turmoil due to global economic factors turning sour. The stock markets right from Asia Pacific to US have closed in the green albeit the relief is too small and too early to call it a U-turn.
The BSE Sensex closed the day at 16341.70 gaining 200.03 while Nifty closed the day at 4898.80 gaining 53.15 points in trades today. Almost all sectoral indices except for the Bankex and BSE IT have closed in the green. IT stock, some experts believe, have still some downside left considering there is no clear signs of order pull backs from US companies. Banks, of course, have their inherent problems and their stocks are showing the signs.
Top gainers include ADAG stocks Reliance Comm, Reliance Infra and SAIL (all three up over 6%), IDFC and Jaiprakash Asso (both up 5%) and ONGC, Bajaj Auto, Wipro, Rel Capital, Tata Power, Hindalco, Tata Motors, Reliance and Jindal Steel (all up over 3%). Market experts believe the upward pull back by Reliance Communications and Reliance Infra is largely because of short covering and that the inherent problems in ADAG stocks still are to be addressed so as to win investor confidence and hence the upward move is short term knee jerk reaction.
Top losers of the day include GAIL (down over 3%), DLF (down over 2%) and Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, Infosys, HCL Tech, TCS, PNB, Sesa Goa and Cairn India (all down 1%).
