Markets ended a three-day losing streak on Friday on the back of positive global cues. There were hopes of a Greek bailout deal happening. Chinese markets, too, rebounded for the second day in a row, after a record slide that had earlier erased around 30 per cent of market value. The Sensex was up 87.74 points to 27,661.40. The Nifty index closed at 8,360.55.
