Published On: Monday, May 18, 2020 | By: Team KnowMyStock

Markets opened in red today (18th May 2020) as stimulus measures announced over the weekend, as part of the government's Rs 20 trillion economic packages, failed to cheer markets. Probably because investors were expecting huge fresh liquidity infusion into the system to improve the aggregate demand. Besides, the government has extended nationwide lockdown till May 31, with some relaxations. The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex declined 444 points, or 1.43 percent, at 30,653 level. NSE's Nifty50, meanwhile, was at 9,022 level, down 114 points or 1.26 percent. Among top losers, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and SBI were down over 3 percent each on the index. Infosys (up to over 1 percent), Tech M, and TCS were the top gainers on the 30 share index. Sectorally, banking counters were trading in a sea of red. Nifty PSU Bank index was trading with a 3 percent cut and was the top loser on the NSE. Nifty Pharma, however, was up 0.8 percent.

14 companies, including Bharti Airtel, GSK Pharmaceuticals, and Dr Lal Pathlabs are scheduled to announce their March quarter earnings.
