Thursday 26 May FO expiry

Market retraced the loss of yesterday and closed above 18000 and 5400 Nifty.

Nifty @ 5412 (up 63) and Sensex @ 18044 (up 197).

But the trading was pretty lackluster - nothing happening except that it was May F&O expiry - so there were some stock specific actions for carry forward.

Reliance on the news of the freeing of gas prices for non core customers and TISCo after announcing the result - which included some one off write backs of provision made earlier and a better than expected result for European operations  were both up by 2%.

Reliance likely to benefit from the above freeing of gas prices - only if it can ramp up its production .

Tisco - the price of gas to steel suppliers (as they are  non core by Govt definition)  are likely to go up and also the raw material prices are still rising - and Europe has  its own set of problems of economic slowdowns.

Unless the major Banking stocks and the IT stocks start moving up - the market definitely headed lower towards 17600 levels 5300 Nifty levels.
