The geopolitical tensions have been rattling the markets, with the investors turning to safe haven gold which in turn pushed up silver higher. Uncertainty over Libya unrest may lead the Indian markets to start today?s session on a negative note, tracking terribly weak Asian indices. Indian markets will trade on the basis of Asian cues owing to US markets being shut. Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) and BP yesterday announced a historic partnership between the two companies, constituting one of the largest foreign direct investments into the country. RIL-BP deal may provide some support to the markets. RIL stock will be in limelight. | | | | | FII/MF ACTIVITIES |  | | | As on 21-02-2011 | FII (Rs cr) | MF* (Rs cr) | | Gross purchase | 2845.70 | 796.40 | | Gross sale | 2601.20 | 716.60 | | Net investment | 244.50 | 79.80 | | | | Daily trend of FII/MF investment in equities The FIIs have bought Indian stocks worth a net of Rs244.50 crore on February 21, 2011.
