Capital Goods, Banks, Consumer Durables, Metals FMCG, Pharma, IT, Auto, PSUs & Oil have ended positive in varying degrees while no sector has ended in negative territory.

Sensex (Daily)

Last Close -- 11572.20; Support -- 11536, 11453; Resistance -- 11618, 11707

Trading Range: The Sensex opened at 11589.35, moved up to an intra-day high of 11635.25, declined to an intra-day low of 11542.10 and closed at 11572.20.

Review/Outlook: The Sensex has faced alternate bouts of both, buying & selling and has come off its intra-day high to end sharply in positive territory on slightly better volume and has managed to close above the 11000 level for the thirteenth trading session in a row. The outlook seems to be improving and despite the extreme volatility, a range bound movement cannot be ruled out while the intra-day charts seem rather hazy and an upside could come in only above the 11635 level - the sanctity of the 11330 level needs to be maintained at all times.
