27 Oct 2022 , 10:19 AM

The key equity indices pared some gains as they came off the early highs in morning trade. The Nifty traded below the 17,750 mark. Metal shares advanced for third consecutive session. At 10:18 IST, the barometer index, the S&P BSE Sensex, was up 242.92 points or 0.41% to 59,786.88. The Nifty 50 index gained 77.80 points or 0.44% to 17,734.15. In the broader market, the S&P BSE Mid-Cap index rose 0.18% while the S&P BSE Small-Cap index gained 0.26%. The market breadth was strong. On the BSE, 1,810 shares rose and 1,272 shares fell. A total of 153 shares were unchanged. Weak future revenue guidance from corporates across the globe fuelled fears of a worldwide economic slowdown. However, the Bank of Canadas lower-than-expected interest rate hike added hopes that the US Fed would go easy on the magnitude of rate hike at its upcoming policy meeting. Buzzing Index: The Nifty Metal index added 2.45% to 5,954.90. The index has risen 3.59% in three sessions. JSW Steel (up 4.28%), Vedanta (up 3.21%), Steel Authority of India (up 3.02%), Jindal Steel & Power (up 2.83%) and Hindalco Industries (up 2.55%) were the top gainers.
