 Market Commentary 
Monetary policy suspense over; market rebounds
As the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) unveils its quarterly review of the monetary policy, the Sensex which breached the psychologically important 16000 levels ends the day 51 points higher on buoyancy in heavyweights, banking and reality stocks.
Global signals
European shares rose early on Friday, bouncing back after their worst sell-off in the year, led by the banking sector as investors await US GDP numbers to gauge the health of the global economy.  
 
US stock index futures pointed to a flat to higher open on Wall Street on Friday, with futures for S&P 500 SPc1 up by 0.2%, Dow Jones DJc1 futures up by 0.1% and Nasdaq 100 NDc1 futures up by 0.4% at 0817 GMT.

Asian markets closed in negative zone as a stronger yen pressured the exporters. 

Indian indices
The market witnessed a correction in opening trades, as weak Asian markets, and flat US and European indices dampened the sentiment. The Sensex resumed on a negative note at 16253, as trading progressed, the Sensex slipped significantly in the afternoon with selling in heavyweights, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) and metal stocks dragging the index to the day's low of 15982. The markets seemed to have absorbed the cash reserve ratio (CRR) hike announced by the RBI earlier in the day. The central bank had announced a 75 basis point hike in CRR, which will be implemented in two phases; 50 basis points hike from February 13 and another 25 basis point rise from February 27. The last hour of the trading session witnessed hectic activity, before selective buying saw the Sensex end in the green with a gain of 51 points at 16357. The Nifty, too, after a mixed outing, moved up 15 points to close at 4882.
