All that happened in the markets today
)
Benchmark indices ended Monday's session with gains, lifted by tech stocks, in line with global stock markets that were buoyed by a deal struck between the US and Mexico to avoid a tariff war, and weak US jobs data that raised hopes of rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.
The S&P BSE Sensex rose 169 points, or 0.43 per cent, to 39,785, with TCS, Infosys, Bharti Airtel, Axis Bank, and ITC. Out of the 30 BSE constituents, 20 ended the day in the green.
The broader Nifty50 index added 52 points, or 0.44 per cent, to settle at 11,923. The market breadth, though, was tilted in favour of sellers. About 1,083 stocks declined and 701 shares advanced on the NSE.
The Nifty sectoral indices traded mixed. Nifty IT and Nifty FMCG were the top gainers, both up over 1 per cent each, while Nifty Media and Nifty PSU Bank indices were the top drags, both down over 1.5 per cent.
In the broader market, the S&P BSE MidCap was up 17 points, or 0.11 per cent, to 14,923, while the S&P BSE SmallCap dipped 72.5 points, or 0.49 per cent, to 14,585.

ICICI Securities on Pokarna
At the CMP, the stock is trading at ~6.5x FY19E EPS. We like Pokarna, given its increasing focus on high-margin quartz business, its owned quarries and technological moat (Bretonstone technology) in India. We believe the new quartz facility in Hyderabad will further help the company increase its share in the US market. We maintain BUY rating with a target price of | 215 per share (9x FY20E EPS). Any imposition of antidumping duty by US on Indian Quartz would remain a key risk for the stock.
