Sensex slips in choppy trade as banks fall
After taking a breather, the Indian markets resumed their downward march and closed in the red at the end of a choppy session. The Indian markets showed pretty strong resilience against another big sell-off in the US and European markets.
Sentiment received a boost from moderate losses in other Asian markets and as large institutions turned out to be net buyers on Wednesday. However, a steep jump in food inflation and an intraday reversal in European markets checked gains for the Indian equities.
