 Market Commentary 

Sensex up on US interest rate-cut hope

Optimism in heavyweights and sectoral stocks followed by the rally in the Asian markets saw the Sensex gain 64 points for the day.

A firming global trend and persistent buying in frontline stocks saw the Sensex surge to the day's high of 19,297.  

 

Yesterday, US markets rose for the second day in a row on the hope that US Federal Reserve may cut the interest rate to strengthen the economy. Tracking the same the Asian indices also rose over 2-4% each. After registering a loss of over 180 points yesterday, the market resumed with a positive gap of 352 points at 19,291. The Sensex remained firm thereafter but within a range. But, some profit booking towards the close dragged the Sensex to its day's low of 18,930. However, late buying in index pivotal stocks lifted the Sensex to end the session with a gain of 64 points at 19,003, while the Nifty closed its session by adding 17 points at 5,635.
