Stock Market Recap

The domestic benchmark indexes, the Sensex and the Nifty 50, ended at record high levels on Tuesday, continuing their record-breaking run for the third day in a row. This was due to buying in certain information technology (IT), telecom, and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sectors as well as foreign institutional investor (FII) inflows.

The Sensex reached a new all-time high of 80,716.55 after rising 51.69 points, or 0.06%. It increased by 233.44 points, or 0.28%, throughout the day to reach a new high of 80,898.30.

The Nifty 50 continued its winning run into the third day, closing at an all-time high of 24,613, up 26.30 points or 0.11%. It increased by 74.55 points, or 0.30%, throughout the day to reach a new record high of 24,661.25.

The strong Wall Street cues on Monday night, when the Dow set a new record high of 40351.10, are credited by market analysts for the optimism. Still, the India VIX remained over 14 levels, which increased concerns about volatility. Broader markets were however, marignally above the dotted lines, thus underperforming the benchmarks.

CNN  —  This past weekend, I had one of the most unusual experiences of my life: a day of air travel that was easy, sensible, efficient — dare I say pleasant.
