Know About: Dalal street, Wall Street

Dalal Street

Dalal Street (Marathi: दलाल - Dalāl means a broker, or dealer) in downtown Mumbai, India is the location of the Bombay Stock Exchange (in the Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers) and several related financial firms and institutions. When Bombay Stock Exchange was moved to this new location at the intersection of Bombay Samāchār Marg, Hammam Street, the street next to the building was renamed as Dalal Street. Similar to Wall Street in New York City, it is often used as a synonym for the Indian financial establishment in general.

Wall Street

Wall Street is a city street in lower Manhattan in New York City in the United States. It runs east from Broadway downhill to South Street on the East River, through the historical center of the Financial District. Wall Street was the first permanent home of the New York Stock Exchange, and over time Wall Street became the name of the surrounding geographic neighborhood.[1] Wall Street is also shorthand (or a metonym) for "influential financial interests" in the U.S.[2] as well as for the financial industry in the New York City area.
Several major U.S. stock and other exchanges remain headquartered on Wall Street and in the Financial District, including the NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, NYMEX, and NYBOT. Many New York-based financial firms are no longer headquartered on Wall Street, but are in midtown Manhattan, the outer boroughs of the city, Long Island, Westchester County, Fairfield County, Connecticut, or New Jersey.

K.V. Kamath is Forbes Asia bizman of the year : Sify.Com

Kamath is Forbes Asia bizman of the year
The m-cap of ICICI swelled to $31 b under his stewardship.


K.V. Kamath, CEO, ICICI Bank, has been named Businessman of the Year for 2007 by Forbes Asia for his steadiness at steering ICICI Bank into one of Asia's top banks. Under Kamath's watch since 1996, the market capitalisation of ICICI Bank has moved up to over $31 billion (Rs 1.25 lakh crore as on November 28) placing it among the region's top 10 banks.

"By this measure, it is bigger than Singapore's DBS Group and Korea's Kookmin Bank, and has attracted big stakeholders such as Singapore's Temasek Holdings and CLSA and Merrill Lynch funds," a press release issued by Forbes said.

Sixty-year old Kamath's win puts him in the company of Nandan Nilekani of Infosys Technologies, last year's winner, and Ratan Tata, the 2004 businessman of the year.
His addition means three Indian executives have won the accolade in the last four years. Tim Ferguson, Editor, Forbes Asia, said: "Kamath's leadership has been outstanding. His focus on serving India's growing middle class by providing first world banking service at affordable prices is largely the reason behind the phenomenal growth of ICICI."

The bank's assets have grown 40 per cent annually in the last three years propelled by a boom in consumer credit where ICICI Bank has a dominant one-third market share.

Sensex settles with a modest gain : Sify.com

NSE 5634.60 17.05
BSE 19003.26 64.39

Taking cues from global markets which had surged higher on expectations of a rate cut, equities opened on a high note on the major Indian bourses this morning, and, due to heavy short-covering in the derivatives segment ahead of expiry of November series contracts, remained high up in the positive zone till about an hour to go for the closing bell.

However, due to a fairly strong bout of selling in a few blue chip stocks, the benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty gave up a significant portion of their gains in the end. Bank, oil and realty stocks closed with smart gains. Information technology stocks, which had a bright spell today, closed well off their intra-day highs due to strong resistance during the fag end of the day.
Auto stocks too surrendered most of their gains. Power, healthcare and capital goods stocks met with profit taking. Selling was evident in late afternoon trade in midcap and smallcap segments as well.

While the Sensex, which opened with a huge positive gap of over 350 points at 19,290.67, ended the session with a modest gain of 64.39 points or 0.34% at 19,003.26, the Nifty settled at 5634.60, well off its high of 5725, with a gain of 0.3% or 17.05 points. Till around mid afternoon, only a few stocks among the Sensex components, were seen struggling to make a headway. However, when trade ended for the day, as many as 14 stocks from the Sensex pack had drifted down into the red. Among them, Bajaj Auto (down 4.65%), Ranbaxy Laboratories (down 2.65%), Reliance Energy (down 2.35%) and Tata Steel (down 2%) were the worst hit.

Reliance Communications, Hindalco and BHEL eased by 1.95%, 1.85% and 1.35% respectively. ITC, HDFC, ONGC and Larsen & Toubro lost 0.5% - 1%. Cipla and Grasim Industries lost marginal ground. Banking sector heavyweights HDFC Bank (4.3%), ICICI Bank (3.15%) and State Bank of India (0.8%) closed with sharp gains.

Reliance Industries firmed up by 1.15%. Automobile stocks Maruti Suzuki (2.5%) and Mahindra & Mahindra (1.5%) ended on a firm note. Hindustan Unilever, Bharti Airtel, Ambuja Cements, NTPC, DLF and Tata Motors closed with modest gains. IT stocks Wipro, Satyam Computer Services, Tata Consultancy Services and Infosys Technologies ended with very small gains.

Reliance Petroleum flared up 12.25% on hectic short-covering. On the National Stock Exchange, the Reliance Petroleum counter clocked a huge volume of 176.59 million shares today. At nearly Rs 3625 crore, RPL's contribution to the turnover on NSE today was quite significant.
