The market continued to add to its value for the fourth consecutive session as firm Asian indices and strong buying in frontline stocks helped the sentiment remain bullish for the whole trading session. After accumulating over 1,300 points in the last three sessions, the Sensex opened marginally above its previous close and rallied sharply to touch an intra-day high of 10,373. While, the market remained well above 10,100 mark in the first half, it came off the high, as traders booked profits at higher levels. However, resumption of buying at lower levels in realty and capital goods (CG) stocks towards the close saw the Sensex recover from its lows. The Sensex finally ended the session with a gain of 550 points at 10,338, while Nifty added 158 points to close at 3,044.
