Episode 1258, May 24, 03:12 AM
Welcome to CNBC-TV18’s Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are the important cues ahead of the trading session of May 24
-With nearly a fortnight left for the results of Lok Sabha polls, benchmark stock indices Sensex and Nifty zoomed more than 1.6% to close at lifetime high levels, making investors richer by Rs 4.28 lakh crore.
-Regaining the 75,000 level, the BSE Sensex ended at an all-time peak of 75,418.04, up by almost 1200 points. The NSE Nifty inched closer to the 23,000 mark during the day. It ended 370 points higher.
-The market may have made new records but the VIX has not cooled off in equal proportion. Although the index ended 0.4% lower on Thursday, it remains above the mark of 21 and analysts suggest that it will continue to remain at elevated levels till the results for the Lok Sabha Elections are declared on June 4.
-Stocks in focus: Bikaji, JK Lakshmi Cement, Zaggle Prepaid, ITC, Page Industries
-Results: Hindalco, Bosch, Torrent Pharma, United Spirits, Ashok Leyland, Glenmark Pharma, Manappuram, Karnataka Bank, Bharat Dynamics
-Overnight in the US, the Dow Jones Industrial Average marked its worst session of the year as it slid 1.53%, with aircraft manufacturer Boeing falling 7.6% — the biggest laggard in the index.
-The S&P 500 dropped 0.74%, and the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 0.39%. Earlier in the session, both the broad-market index and the tech-heavy benchmark had hit record highs.
-Asian stocks this morning tracked Wall Street lower following activity data that signaled the Federal Reserve may keep rates on hold for most of this year.
-In commodities, oil steadied on Friday after slipping in its previous session as traders weighed signs of a weakening physical market ahead of the start of the US summer driving season. Elsewhere, gold held Thursday’s loss following the US economic data.
-GIFTNifty was in green, trading marginally higher from Nifty Futures Thursday close, indicating a muted but most likely a start in the green for the domestic market.
