The market has remained in a mixed state of mind, has come off its intra-day high and has finally ended the day in negative territory. Banks, Healthcare, Capital Goods, PSU, Oil, FMCG & Consumer Durables have ended negative in varying degrees while Auto, Metal, Realty & IT have ended in positive territory. Volume registered a noticeable decrease (read as turnover) while the undertone seemed subdued.

Sensex

Last Close - 16698.04 | Support - 16681, 16416 | Resistance - 16964, 17292

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 16823.99, moved up to an intra-day high of 16871.27, declined to an intra-day low of 16589.45 and closed at 16698.04.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has had a mixed trading session, has had a positive opening, has moved both ways, has faced selling pressure at higher levels, has come off from its intra - day high and has finally ended in negative territory on lower volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; an intra-day downside (seems like a possibility) could come in below the 16674 level while significant support at lower levels (16550) - would limit the downside. The outlook has turned positive again while resistance comes in at the 16609+ level and support comes in at the 15300 level.
