The market had a gap up opening on the back of positive cues from the US markets. The mood was somewhat relaxed as Greece dropped the idea of a referendum on bailout package and European Central Bank unexpectedly lowered interest rates to 0.25% at 1.25%. After touching the intraday high the market witnessed some profit booking which result in Sensex slipping down briefly into negative terrotory . Reliance witnessed cut of around 1% during the afternoon session even as few FMCG and auto stocks too slipped under pressure. Positive openings in European market enabled the market to bounce back from the lows and end the day on a positive note. Midcap and small cap stocks outperformed the front liners.
The market could not sustain those gains in the second half of trade due to volatility in Europe, especially ahead of G-20 meet. Investors too were worried about the financial and political stability in the eurozone. Some global experts believed that Greek default has already been priced in and not the focus is more on Italy, Spain and the banking side of the problem. Total traded turnover was more than Rs 1.05 lakh crore.
