SHARE PRICES ZOOM ON HECTIC SHORT - COVERING

Bombay Dec, 8. Led by Century and Century Enka share prices skyrocketted on hectic short - cover-
ing by bears on sustained financial institution buying as the national index crossed the 400 mark point to touch a new pinnacle on the local stock exchange today.
The National index of equity price based on 100 scrips flared up to cross the 400 mark point and touched a new high of around 407.43 points . The BSE sensitive index also flared up by almost 23 points the biggest rise in latest times in a single trading session. The national index previous peak was 404.71 points on June 30, 1991. While BSE sensitive index peak was 738 on July 6, 1991.
Brokers stated aggressive buying from financial institutions during the last few weeks had created a shortage of floating stocks of several blue chip companies forcing bears to sharply cover their heavy outstanding sales position resulting in sharp recovery in share values during past election trading sessions.
Opening on a firm note, share prices zoomed upon hectic short- covering on end account consideration as havala rates will be fixed to-day while badla will be transacted on Monday. The market expected badla charges to be lower with several scrips likely to attract backwardation charges.
