Market at 2-week closing low on Greek default fears

Data showing dismal July 2011 industrial production growth, a setback in global stocks caused by worries the Greek government may default on its debts and reports that Moody's Investors Service may downgrade France's largest banks over their exposure to Greece, pulled Indian indices sharply lower for the second day in a row. The 50-unit S&P CNX Nifty fell below the psychological 5,000 level. The barometer index BSE Sensex and the Nifty hit 2-week closing low. The Sensex lost 365.23 points or 2.17%, off about 165 points from the day's high and up close to 110 points from the day's low. The market breadth was weak. All the thirteen sectoral indices on BSE were in the red.
