It was a good day for the midcaps and smallcaps, but the largecaps seemed to be a bit tired after yesterday's run-up. The BSE benchmark Sensex closed at 19,784, down 144 points from the previous close. Nifty shut shop at 5912, down 25 points. But BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices ended the day on a good note, up 1.6% and 1.9% respectively. The CNX Midcap index closed over 2%. Market breadth was positive throughout the trading session today.
