After having opened marginally in the red, the markets have rebounded in line with their Asian counterparts. Asia is largely trading in the green after the Federal Reserve raised the US growth forecasts for 2010. The US markets also ended off their lows, albeit marginally weak, after the Fed raised the GDP forecast.
The Sensex is quoting at 17,179, up 48 points, and the Nifty is at 5100, up 10 points. The auto, metal and PSU sectoral indices on the BSE are up more than a percent each.

Hero Honda, Tata Steel and Reliance Communications have added in the region of a percent each.
The top Sensex losers are ICICI Bank (weaker by 1.4% at Rs 892), Bharti Airtel (lower by 0.8% at Rs 279) and Hindalco (down 0.7% at Rs 134).
