Old economy stocks ONGC (3.81 per cent at Rs 901.60) and Tata Steel (down 4.40 per cent at Rs 334.40) were also among notable losers, with the declines in these two counters amounting to a 15-point drop in the index.  HDFC was the biggest contributor to the index. The stock gained 11.01 per cent to close at Rs 843.75, pushing the index up by 18.59 points. NTPC (up 2.76 per cent at Rs 85.55), ICICI Bank (up 3.73 per cent at Rs 407.10) and Reliance Industries (up 2.50 per cent at Rs 566.75) were the other big gainer of the past week.  Most of the sectoral indices showed declines last week, with the BSE FMCG Index and the BSE Metal Index being the worst affected. Declines in the FMCG index were mainly account of losses suffered by FMCG heavyweights ITC and HLL.  Among metal stocks, Tata Steel, which has the highest weightage in the index, proved to be the big drag. On the contrary, the BSE Consumer Durables Index and the BSE Bankex were the main gainers.  The former was buoyed by gains in leading index stocks like Titan Industries, Blue Star and Videocon International , while the bankex posted gains on the back of advances in leading counters like SBI, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank.  US indices endured mixed fortunes last week. While the Dow Jones Industrial ended the week up 51.66 points at 10,512.63, the technology index, Nasdaq fell 8.43 points, closing Friday at 2,063.00. The worries were mainly account of the impact of high prices and their impact on US trade deficit.  Oil imports rose to the second-highest level on record, which raised concerns that high oil prices would weigh on consumer spending as well as business costs.  Intel Corp' bullish sales forecast prompted some profit-taking in technology counters, which have been rallying in the past month on expectations of strong sales growth. In currency trading, the dollar rallied versus the euro and yen.
