The market has posted another new high to finish once again on a strong footing in positive territory.

Banks, capital goods, consumer durables and PSUs ended mildly negative while pharma, IT and FMCG all ended quite positive in varying degrees.

Review/Outlook -- The Sensex has once again posted a new high (a 29 month high -- on higher volume) while the intermediate uptrend is going from strength to strength.
