Trends Observed - Sectors continuing momentum in the past 6 weeks are - Automobile, Auto Banking, Finance General Industries Textiles and Aparrels Sectors where momentum is seen to increase - Cement & Construction Consumer Durables Metal & Mining Sectors where momentum is slowing down - Chemicals FMCG Hotels Sector In Discussion - Consumer durables -  It has been one of the beaten sectors for the past 2 years, as a question of discretionary spending came to light.
