In volatile trade, the Sensex
washed out major part of previous day's gains on across-the-board
selling and closed down about 275 points today as rising crude prices
due to worsening Iraq unrest threaten India's economy, already reeling
under price rise and slowing growth. The market got a jolt when the
news of militant attack on Iraq's main oil refinery this morning
filtered in. As a result, Sensex plunged by over 400 points mid
afternoon. In energy trading, benchmark crude oil for July delivery
added 41 cents to USD 106.77 on New York Mercantile Exchange. Slowdown
in foreign fund inflow and sharp rise in the rupee value to near 60.40
in mid-session deals also weighed on the domestic stock market
sentiment. Eleven out of the twelve BSE sectoral indices closed in the
red logging losses between 0.72 per cent and 2.10 per cent. Realty,
oil&gas, power, consumer durable, banking, auto and IT took the lead
in the downslide while only healthcare index finished in the green.
The BSE 30-share indicator resumed better and moved in a narrow range
till early mid-session. After falling sharply to a low of 25,114.30, it
recovered some ground to end at 25,246.25, a net fall of 274.94 points
or 1.08 per cent. Yesterday, it had shot up by 330.71 points or 1.31 per
cent. The 50-issue CNX Nifty of the NSE also slumped by 73.50 points,
or 0.96 per cent, to end at 7,558.20. Jignesh Chaudhary, Head of
Research, Veracity Broking Services said: "There was concern over the
impact of higher oil prices on inflation as India imports 80 per cent of
its oil requirements and higher oil prices will automatically elevate
the inflation." After markets closed Tuesday, government unveiled a
host of steps to tame inflation that has soared to a five-month high of
6.01 per cent in May. World stocks were muted today as investors waited
for an update on the US economy later tonight from the Federal Reserve
following its two-day policy meeting where it is widely expected to cut
monthly stimulus further by USD 10 billion.
