Sensex extends losing streak, ends 338 pts down
The bears went on a rampage on the major Indian bourses for the third successive session as global markets dampened investor sentiment today. But then, with Asian markets tumbling on concerns over mounting credit losses, the trend back home was not expected to be any different.
Trading in the red right through the session, the Sensex ended with a huge loss of 338.32 points or 2.31% at 14,324.29. The barometer, which opened with a negative gap of over 100 points at 14,557.33, plunged to a low of 14,265.38 in afternoon trade today. The Nifty, which breached a few crucial support levels, touched a low of 4272.75 and settled at 4290.30 with a loss of 109.95 points or 2.5% at 4290.30.
Stocks cutting across sectors were seen struggling for support today. However, losses posted by oil, realty, power and capital goods stocks were more pronounced. PSU, bank, metal and pharma stocks closed with sharp losses. IT and auto stocks managed to buck the trend for a while before they too drifted down due to lack of support at higher levels.
Among Sensex stocks, only Tata Motors (1.35%) and Ranbaxy Laboratories (0.25%) closed in the positive territory. Nifty stock Punjab National Bank (0.55%) ended with a modest gain.
Bharti Airtel ended with a loss of 4.4%. Reliance Infrastructure eased by 4.15%. Reliance Industries on unconfirmed reports that the government may recommend a levy of export tax or ban petroleum exports from its Jamnagar facility.
ONGC, Tata Power, DLF, Jaiprakash Associates, Mahindra & Mahindra, BHEL, NTPC, Maruti Suzuki, HDFC and ICICI Bank lost 2% - 4%. Hindalco, HDFC Bank, Larsen & Toubro, Tata Consultancy Services, ITC, State Bank of India, Tata Steel, ACC, Grasim Industries, Hindustan Unilever, Reliance Communications, Wipro and Sterlite Industries also ended with sharp losses. Infosys Technologies and Satyam Computer Services ended with modest losses.
Suzlon Energy, HCL Technologies, Zee Entertainment, Sun Pharmaceuticals, Ambuja Cements, Power Grid Corporation, SAIL, Cipla, Reliance Petroleum, ABB, Cairn India, Idea Cellular, Tata Communications, Siemens and Nalco closed on a weak note.
Bajaj Finance, KSK Energy, India Bulls Financial Services, Yes Bank, REI Agro, Reliance Capital, India Bulls Real Estate, Voltas, Jai Corp, Mangalore Refineries & Petrochemicals, IVRCL Infrastructure and Sesa Goa were some of the prominent losers from BSE 'A' Group.
A number of midcap and smallcap stocks also posted sharp losses. The market breadth was weak once again. On BSE, declines outscored advances by 2 to 1.

Sensex extends losing streak, ends 110 points
Sensex extends losing streak, ends 110
Sensex falls 110 points; realty, banking
NSE
5137.45 -30.15
BSE
17648.71 -109.93
The market, which drifted down sharply into the red after opening higher, bounced back smartly as select blue chips, led by information technology and oil majors, ruled firm on sustained buying enquiries due largely to short-covering in the derivative segment ahead of expiry of January series contracts.
Mirroring the surge, the Sensex, which was down in the red with a big loss of nearly 350 points at 17,417.63 at one stage, zoomed past the 18,000 mark a little past noon and held on in the positive territory with its gains intact till around mid afternoon. However, with a number of front line stocks turning easy following a strong bout of selling in late afternoon trade, the barometer plunged into the red once again.
Finally, amid erratic fluctuations in stock prices, the Sensex ended the session with a sharp loss of 109.93 points or 0.62% at 17,648.71. The Nifty which swung in a range of around 180 points - it hit a high of 5251.65 and a low of 5071.15 today - settled at 5137.45 with a loss of 0.58% or 30.15 points.
Global cues were somewhat mixed. Despite a 50 basis point cut announced by the US Federal Reserve, the Wall Street had ended just marginally higher. Among the markets in Asia, Japan, South Korea, Thailand and Malaysia ended higher while Taiwan, China and Hong Kong markets ended weak. Results from India Inc remained mixed as well.
Hindustan Unilever, which moved up by over 5%, was the top gainer in the Sensex today. Bajaj Auto surged 3.85% to Rs 2355.65. HDFC Bank and ONGC closed stronger by 2.4% and 2.05% respectively despite surrendering a good portion of their intra-day gains.
Tata Motors, Bharti Airtel, Tata Steel, Tata Consultancy Services and Ambuja Cements closed with gains ranging from 1% to 1.5%. Infosys Technologies and Reliance Industries played a significant role in lifting the market this morning but both gave up a significant portion of their gains due to heavy selling in late afternoon trade. While Infosys Technologies ended with a gain of 0.75%, Reliance Industries closed with a modest gain of 0.4%. Maruti Suzuki and Wipro closed higher by 0.75% and 0.3% respectively.
Disappointing results haunted Hindalco today. The stock, which slipped to a low of Rs 158.50 did find some support at lower levels, yet ended the session with a sharp loss of 5.85% at Rs 165.75. Realty stock DLF eased by 5.75%. ICICI Bank (down 3.3%), Mahindra & Mahindra (down 3.1%), State Bank of India (down 2.6%), ITC (down 2.15%), NTPC (down 1.85%), ACC (down 1.8%), HDFC (down 1.75%) and Reliance Communications (down 1.7%) also ended with sharp losses.
Grasim Industries ended 1.4% down at Rs 2948.75. BHEL, which moved in a tight band today, closed with a loss of 1.15% at Rs 2064.10. Ranbaxy Laboratories lost 1.15%. Larsen & Toubro declined by 0.7% while Reliance Energy and Satyam Computer Services edged lower by around 0.4%. Cipla finished with a small loss.
GlaxoSmithKline Pharma, HCL Technologies, GAIL India, Punjab National Bank, Tata Power, Siemens, ABB, Sterlite Industries, Suzlon Energy, SAIL, Sun Pharmaceuticals, Reliance Petroleum and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories were among the major losers from the Nifty.
Nalco ended with a handsome gain of 8.5%. Idea Cellular moved up by 7.15%. VSNL closed with a sharp gain of 4.65% while Zee Entertainment gained over 4%.
Container Corporation jumped 14.25% on strong results and a bonus proposal. Exide Industries, Jindal Stainless, Asian Paints, Indian Oil Corporation, IVR Prime, Jindal Steel, Gujarat Mineral Development, Lupin, Gillette, Torrent Pharma, Colgate Palmolive, Aditya Birla Nuvo, D-Link India, Procter & Gamble and United Phosphorus had a nice ride up the charts today.
Honeywell Automation, Ess Dee Aluminium, Rajesh Exports, Infotech Enterprises, Amtek India, Plethico Pharma, Indraprastha Gas, Provogue, Anant Raj Industries, JM Financial Services, Kalpataru Power Transmission, Geodesic Infosystems, REI Agro, Himadri Chemicals and Religare Enterprises were some of the impressive gainers in the midcap index today.
The market breadth was weak once again. Out of 2792 stocks traded on BSE today, only 977 stocks managed to end on a winning note. 1774 stocks closed in the negative territory while 41 stocks ended at their previous closing levels.
