Dec 2, 2008 - Sensex closes 101 pts down

Equities witnessed a volatile session Tuesday. After wallowing in the red for major part of the session, the indices pulled back sharply to end off lows.

Market opened with a gap-down tracking other Asian peers after the US economy was officially said to be in recession. The worst hit were the interest rate-sensitive sectors, as traders eyed some financial stimulus from the government like easing in ECB norms and lowering of interest rates.

Automobile stocks were down as economic slowdown hit sales badly while shares of oil exploration companies fell as crude oil price eased to $47.85 per barrel, the lowest since May 2005 and almost $100 off the record peak of $147.27 reached in July.
