Nifty manages to hold 9900, midcaps & PSU banks rally

Equity benchmark indices were trading steady, marginally higher from their opening tick, with the Sensex rising almost one third of a percent. The Nifty managed to hold on to 9900-mark.

The Sensex was up 83.82 points at 31854.71, while the Nifty was up 30.30 points at 9927.60. The market breadth was positive as 1,348 shares advanced against a decline of 437 shares, while 62 shares were unchanged.

Metal stocks continued to gain, but in the broader market, midcaps and smallcaps continued to rise, which aided the rally on D-Street.

Infosys, Coal India and Vedanta gained the most on both indices, while HUL, Kotak Mahindra Bank and Zee Entertainment were the top losers.

Asian stocks edged up on Thursday as tensions between the US and North Korea came off the boil, while worries about President Donald Trump's ability to implement his pro-growth agenda and the Federal Reserve's concerns about low US inflation hit the dollar.

Meanwhile, US stocks ended slightly firmer on Wednesday but off the day's highs as worries mounted over President Donald Trump's agenda and minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting suggested policymakers are worried about weak inflation.

Indexes lost some ground following Trump's disbanding of two high-profile business advisory councils after two more CEOs resigned from the manufacturing council on Wednesday in response to his comments on weekend violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.
