BSE Small-cap, Mid-cap indices outshine Sensex
After a recent sharp setback in share prices, a broad-based rebound was witnessed on the domestic bourses today, 10 August 2011, as US Federal Reserve's decision on Tuesday, 9 August 2011, to keep US interest rates ultra-low for two more years raised expectations of increase in fund inflows into high-yielding emerging markets such as India. Incidentally, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) pressed heavy sales of Indian shares recently as a US credit rating downgrade caused global risk aversion. The barometer index BSE Sensex today, 10 August 2011, regained the psychological 17,000 mark. The Sensex jumped 272.60 points or 1.62%, off 125.95 points from day's high and up 108.26 points from day's low.

Trading of S&P CNX Nifty on the Singapore stock exchange indicates a rise of 64.50 points at the opening bell.

Fed up, rise up!
"One of the common denominators I have found is that expectations rise above that which is expected." -George W Bush.
A wonderful Wednesday lay in store, as the worries of the world take a backseat. After a couple of nerve-wrecking and highly volatile sessions, some semblance of stability was much needed. US stocks survived a mid-session drop to end smartly higher. Fed’s assurance that it will keep rates at record low till at least the middle of 2013 was the main driving force. European markets too rebounded from day’s lows.
