Eventful Week ends with marginal gains

Indian stock markets closed the week on a slightly higher note led by support from domestic cues, however global markets added pressure.


Major Headlines for the week:

Indian indices:
Welcome to the 'Weekly Market Wrap' for Saturday, March 07, 2015 where key benchmark indices edged higher in the truncated trading week ended Thursday, 5 March 2015. The market logged gains in three out of the four trading sessions of the week.

The barometer index, the S&P BSE Sensex scaled record high above the psychological 30,000 mark and the 50-unit CNX Nifty also scaled record high above the psychological 9,000 mark on Wednesday, 4 March 2015 after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) surprised financial markets by announcing a reduction in its benchmark lending rate viz. the repo rate by 25 basis points in an unscheduled monetary policy review.

However, the Sensex and Nifty failed to maintain these psychological levels. The BSE Small-Cap and the BSE Mid-Cap indices outperformed the Sensex 

In the week ended Thursday, 5 March 2015, the 30-share S&P BSE Sensex rose 87.45 points or 0.3% to settle at 29,448.95. The Sensex scaled a record high of 30,024.74 in intraday day trade on Wednesday, 4 March 2015. The 50-unit CNX Nifty rose 35.90 points or 0.4% to settle at 8,937.75. The Nifty scaled a record high of 9,119.20 in intraday day trade on Wednesday, 4 March 2015. 

The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index advanced 234.23 points or 2.17% to settle at 11,045.08. The S&P BSE Small-Cap index gained 190.41 points or 1.69% to settle at 11,456.85. Both these indices outperformed the Sensex. 

Weekly market trend from March 02 - March 06:

March 02- Cement, construction and capital goods led gains for key benchmark indices on Monday, after the government provided a thrust on the infrastructure sector and sharply increased the government's capital expenditure for 2015-16 in Union Budget 2015-16 tabled by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in parliament on Saturday, 28 February 2015. The S&P BSE Sensex gained 97.64 or 0.33% to settle at 29,459.14, its highest closing level since 19 February 2015. 

March 03- Gains in IT stocks and index heavyweights Reliance Industries and HDFC led rally as 50-unit CNX Nifty hit record high above the psychological 9,000 level on Tuesday. The S&P BSE Sensex rose 134.59 points or 0.46% to settle at 29,593.73, its highest closing level since 29 January 2015. 

March 04- An initial rally triggered by Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) surprise announcement of a cut in the repo rate could not be sustained as weakness during the latter part of the trading session pushed key benchmark indices lower on Wednesday. The S&P BSE Sensex fell 213 points or 0.72% to settle at 29,380.73, its lowest closing level since 28 February 2015.

March 05- Amid divergent trend among various index constituents, key benchmark indices registered small gains in a highly volatile trade on Thursday. The S&P BSE Sensex advanced 68.22 points or 0.23% to settle at 29,448.95, its highest closing level since 3 March 2015.
