Stock Market On Thursday
Indian markets halted their upward movement on Thursday after three consecutive days of gains, as investors chose caution over excitement. The Sensex fell by 503.76 points, or 0.60 percent, to close at 83,313.93, while the Nifty lost 133.20 points, representing a 0.52 percent decline, to settle at 25,642.80 after slipping below the 25,650 mark.
The market witnessed widespread profit-taking, with sellers dominating buyers and creating a negative mood across the board. Market breadth reflected the same trend, as 2,425 stocks declined while only 1,601 advanced and 137 remained unchanged. Dalal Street took a breather after several days of upward movement, reminding investors of the market’s uneven rhythm ahead of key events like the upcoming RBI policy meeting.
