Downs in the D - Street: Engulfed by bears in weekly chart
 

The Nifty traded lower for the major part of the day on Friday and closed in the red for the second consecutive session on December 6, dragged by selling pressure across sectors. A weak economic growth outlook, expected higher inflation, and a likely slip in fiscal path dented the sentiments.
 

A bearish candle suggests that the bears were able to regain control after the index moved in a narrow range for the past few sessions. It is usually seen as the end of an uptrend but if the index breaks below its crucial support level of 11,800, selling pressure could accelerate. The Nifty opened higher at 12,047.35 and hit day's high of 12,057.05, but after an initial hour of positive trade, it lost ground and traded lower for the rest of the session to hit an intraday low of 11,888.85. It closed 96.90 points lower at 11,921.50.
