The Indian markets shut a lacklustre session on a flat note due to lack of investor participation ahead of holiday season

Asian markets end slightly weak
Lack of active trading makes major indices mostly drop
Lack of active trading participation by the investors ahead of the Christmas holidays saw the Asian markets ending on a slightly weak note amid thin sideways movements. The markets started off decently on positive overnight cues and strong commodity prices but gave up their advances as the day progressed. The data out yesterday showed that the US economy expanded at a 2.6% pace in the third quarter, slightly faster than previously reported 2.50, following mainly because of a higher inventory buildup. Over the past four quarters, the economy has clocked a growth of 3.2%, reflecting a modest rebound from the sub prime led recession. US stocks edged slightly higher last night amid low volume with the Dow gaining 26.33 points or 0.2% to close at 11,559.49. Japanese markets were closed for a public holiday today, making the session a listless one on the whole.
Nifty December 2010 futures at premium
Turnover plunges
Nifty December 2010 futures were at 5,996.75, at a premium of 16.75 points over spot closing of 5,980. Turnover in NSE's futures & options (F&O) segment plunged to Rs 87,669.53 crore from Rs 109438.29 crore on Wednesday, 22 December 2010.
Market ends slightly lower on thin volumes
The key benchmark ended a choppy trading session lower as macroeconomic worries arising from a high global crude oil prices weighed on investor sentiment. Low volumes caused intraday volatility in share prices. Healthcare and IT sector shares gained while consumer durables, metals and realty sector shares fell the most. Nine out of 13 sectoral indices on BSE declined. The BSE Sensex closed below the psychological 20,000 mark, after flirting with that level in intraday trade. The 50-unit S&P CNX Nifty closed below the psychological 6,000 mark, after flirting with that level in intraday trade.
Subdued before Christmas
Happiness arises in a state of peace, not of tumult. - Ann Radcliffe.
Key indices are set to open a tad higher, supported by positive finish in the US and Europe. Crude oil has crossed $90, which again is not making life any easier for the policymakers. Copper prices are also near record highs after appreciating ~30% this year.
