Markets could come under selling pressure in latter half of the day despite early morning gains

The Nifty and the Sensex managed to hold on to their early morning gains on Tuesday as 3 days of relentless selling saw the market hit a fresh 14-month low. However, the quality of stocks taking the indices higher is nothing to talk about. Hence, the markets could come under selling pressure in the latter half of the day. Banking stocks are in demand, mainly on account of short covering after sustained selling on these lenders saw many of them trade at 52 week lows.

Investors also took heart from a meeting held by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in which all top industrialists and the Governor of the Reserve Bank of India were invited to discuss the state of play on the Indian economy against the backdrop of the global economic turmoil and its impact on stocks.

Meanwhile, here is a snapshot of the market with special emphasis on the Futures & Options segment.
