Calibrated celebrations: Sensex jumps 1000 points in 4 trading sessions

The fast-paced gains forced BSE to suspend the cake-cutting celebration it holds after the Sensex climbs a new 1,000-point milestone

Bulls on Dalal Street are supercharged with the latest 1,000-point jump in the benchmark Sensex coming in just four trading sessions. The fast-paced gains forced BSE, formerly Bombay Stock Exchange, to suspend the cake-cutting celebration it holds after the Sensex climbs a new 1,000-point milestone. Just last week, the exchange celebrated the index touching 35,000.

“Now we will celebrate after the index touches 40,000,” said an official when asked if the exchange would have the celebration on Tuesday.
