NEW DELHI: It was a painful week for Dalal Street with the Sensex posting the longest losing run in almost a year and stocks getting beaten black and blue.

The 30-share pack slipped 2.03 per cent for the week. Issues of share pledges plagued the market as did the fears of rising crude oil prices and geopolitical tensions on India’s Pakistan border.

Amid all this noise and chaos, constant flow of ideas, hope and top-notch advices from D-Street experts helped investors like you and me maintain sanity.


Shankar Sharma summarised the current market mood with a tongue-in-cheek tweet.
