Market witnessed across-the-board selling as the sentiment remained bearish on the back of liquidity squeeze in the domestic market and a sharp fall in Asian indices. Sustained selling in power, technology and banking stocks too added pressure on the domestic indices. The major Asian indices like the Hang Seng, the Kospi, the Straits Times and the Nikkei shed over 1-2% each. After resuming 108 points above its previous close at 20,836, the market remained under the grip of sustained selling pressure. Extensive correction in heavyweights and index pivotal stocks towards the close dragged the index to the day's low of 20,204. The Sensex finally ended the session at 20,251, down 477 points, while the Nifty shed 133 points and closed at 6,074.
All the sectoral indices were hammered on the back of relentless selling pressure. The BSE Teck index dropped 2.59% at 3,624, the BSE Power index lost 2.45% at 4,632, the BSE Bankex index shed 2.39% at 12,258 and the BSE FMCG index fell 2.34% at 2,354. The broader market was weak. Of the 2,888 stocks traded on the BSE, 1,869 stocks declined, 988 stocks advanced and 31 stocks ended unchanged.
