Sensex extended its gain for sixth day in a
row on Friday and rose 200 points to close at 27,316. The Nifty gained 50
points to 8,247.It was a day of real display of
strength by the bulls for they showed the guts to build up major positions in
the options as well as in futures! Not just that, they forced the bears to cover
the short sold calls for strike prices of 7900 through 8100 for the June series
in a big way: nearly 1.9 million units of call options for these strike prices
were covered among which just 8100-strike saw a reduction of over 1.3 million
units. On the put side, the bulls wrote around 5 million units for strike
prices starting from 7900 through 8200. This only suggests that there would,
most likely be, a serious attempt to get past the 200-day EMA at 8195 in the
day’s session breaching it decisively. Equity benchmarks rallied for the sixth consecutive session
Friday with the Nifty effortlessly conquering the 8200-mark, supported by
banking & financials, oil and select auto stocks. Good monsoon start and upmove
in global markets kept the investor mood positive.A strong trend at other Asian markets
following a record closing at US markets yesterday despite the Greek stalemate
helped.
A day after it surged more than 280 points, a
barometer index of the Indian equities markets continued its upward trajectory
and gained more than 250 points during the late-afternoon session on Friday.
