Sensex ends flat amid dull trade...Nifty below 5400


After a steep fall on Monday, the Indian markets ended with modest gains on Tuesday amid some volatility ahead of the F&O expiry. The key stock indices started off with smart gains despite weak cues from the US and European equity markets. However, the Asian indices recovered from the previous session's drubbing and European markets too managed to break the recent sequence of losses. As a result, the sentiment on Indian bourses too improved.

FMCG, Realty and PSU stocks were among the major laggards. On the other hand, Capital Goods, Consumer Durables and Banking stocks were in demand.

Expiry eve…Delicately poised


"The sharp thorn often produces delicate roses." - Ovid.

We are heading into crucial two-day trading as the expiry of current month’s F&O contracts take centerstage. The market is delicately poised with the Nifty just below 5400. The start today is likely to be down. Asian markets are in the red. US stocks closed lower while European indices managed slim gains.

Precious metals shine


Weak dollar push prices higher

Precious metals ended higher on Tuesday, 24 May, 2011 at Comex. Prices rose on Tuesday following a weak dollar as ongoing problems of the Eurozone pushed investors towards bullions as a safer investment bet.

Generally, a stronger dollar pressures demand for dollar-denominated commodities, such as crude oil and gold, which become more expensive for holders of other currencies and also vice versa. But bullion metals have registered increase in prices despite strong dollar in recent times and vice versa.

Market may slide on weak Asian stocks; Tata Steel in focus


The market may fall on weak Asian stocks. Trading of S&P CNX Nifty futures on the Singapore stock exchange indicates a fall of 39.50 points at the opening bell. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) bought shares worth Rs 188.16 crore and domestic funds bought shares worth Rs 32.95 crore on Tuesday, 24 May 2011 as per provisional figures released by the stock exchanges.

Volatility may heighten in the near term as traders roll over positions in the derivatives segment from the near-month May 2011 series to June 2011 series, ahead of the expiry of the May 2011 derivatives contracts on Thursday, 26 May 2011.
