The breakout has also prompted several short-coverings and triggered buying in banking stocks
Shares hit record highs on Wednesday, led by financial and metals sectors, as the blue-chip Nifty 50 index s break above the key psychological 16,000-level brought fresh impetus into the market and boosted investor sentiment.
By 1:10 pm, the NSE Nifty 50 index climbed 0.57 per cent to 16,222.60 and the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex rose 0.77 per cent to 54,236.89. The momentum that has come after a clean break of 16,000-mark seems to have brought in or at least attracted fresh buyers. We have broken a month-long excruciatingly tight range of 400 points, said Anand James, chief market strategist at Geojit Financial Services.
