Post Market Commentary

The market closed marginally up after a strong rally at the initial stage. The market came off sharply from the higher levels towards the end of the session on the back of heavy profit booking by the investors. The market opened on a firm note tracking the strong global cues but failed to sustain the momentum towards the final hours of the trading as the selling intensified across all the segments. Also, the expiry of the November 2007 derivatives contracts also put some pressure into the market. Selling is seen mostly in the capital goods and Metal scrips while Bankex, Oil & Gas and Realty attracts investors confidence.
