Dalal Street hit by global market
US dollar eased after Dollar Index regained 105 levels on Wednesday, according to market experts. However, it failed to sustain on higher levels. But, the profit booking in US dollar has not come to the equities as investors are awaiting US non farm payroll data and US jobless claim data that is expected today. Experts also maintained that today's sell off is because of the trickle down of weakness in banking stocks from Wall Street to Dalal Street.
