Sensex snaps 6-day losing streak, rallies 835 points to reclaim 37k-mark

Snapping its six-day falling streak, equity benchmark Sensex rallied 835 points on Friday to reclaim the 37,000-mark on across-the-board buying amid mixed global cues. The 30-share BSE index ended 835.06 points or 2.28 per cent higher at 37,388.66.

Similarly, the NSE Nifty rose 244.70 points or 2.26 per cent to finish at 11,050.25.

In rest of Asia, bourses in Tokyo and Seoul ended settled with gains, while Shanghai and Hong Kong ended in the red.

Stock exchanges in Europe were also trading on a mixed note in early trade.

"Stimulus measures, if any, in the US could provide support to the markets. If the market corrects from these levels, then investors should actively look for accumulating good quality stocks for long term wealth creation," said Sanjeev Zarbade, VP PCG Research, Kotak Securities.

In the forex market, the rupee strengthened by 28 paise to finish at 73.61 against the US dollar.
