Nik's Diary
The Indian markets open flat with a positive bias tracking marginally positive opening in SGX Nifty, which is higher by 0.2%. US markets moved mostly higher on Friday, despite a relatively quiet day in terms of news. The gains on the day, resulted in the Dow and the S&P 500 reaching new record closing highs, while the Nasdaq rose to another twelve-year high. European markets too rose on Friday after companies like ArcelorMittal and BT Group Plc reported better than expected results and data showed German exports recovered as expected in March, boosting hopes of economic revival. Meanwhile positive global cues and better-than-expected IIP numbers helped Indian shares end notably higher on Friday. The BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty rose by 0.7% each after government data showed India's industrial output grew by 2.5% in March compared to a contraction of 2.8% in the year-ago period. Markets were flat on the special trading session held by exchanges on Saturday during which BSE tested its disaster recovery software.
