Stock Market HIGHLIGHTS: Indian equity benchmarks Sensex and Nifty50 ended a weak session in the red on Friday though recovering more than half of their intraday losses. Globally, equities saw largely negative mooves as a spike in US bond yields overshadowed earnings optimism, and concerns about hawkish major central banks continued to worry investors.

Here are key things to know about the February 10 session on Dalal Street:

1. Both headline indices finished the day with a cut of 0.2 per cent. The Sensex lost 123.5 points to end at 60,682.7, having declined as much as 304.5 points during the session, and the Nifty50 settled at 17,856.5, down 37 points from its previous close. The 50-scrip gauge moved broadly within the 17,800-17,900 band in intraday trade. 

2. A total of 27 stocks in the Nifty50 basket ended in the red. Adani Enterprises was the top laggard, closing 3.8 per cent lower. HCL Tech, Hindalco, Tata Steel, Coal India, Reliance and ITC were the other top blue-chip losers, falling around 1-3 per cent each. On the other hand, Tata Motors, UPL, Cipla, Hero MotoCorp, HDFC Life, Tata Consumer and Larsen & Toubro were the top gainers, rising between 0.6 per cent and 1.8 per cent.

3. Among heavyweights, Reliance, ICICI Bank, HCL Tech, Infosys and ITC were the biggest drags on the 50-scrip index, whereas Larsen & Toubro, Tata Motors, the HDFC twins and Bharti Airtel brought the maximum support. 

4. Broader indices Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Smallcap 100 rose 0.2 per cent and 0.5 per cent respectively. The BSE 500, however, inched 0.1 per cent lower with almost 280 of its constituents rising for the day. 

5. Overall market breadth was skewed in favour of the bulls, with an advance-decline ratio of 6:5 as 1,861 stocks rise and 1,594 fall at the close on BSE. 

6. LIC shares ended 1.1 per cent higher at Rs 620.1 apiece on BSE, a day after the state-run life insurance giant reported a 35.5 times jump in its quarterly net profit.

7. Paytm shares suffered their worst single-day fall since November 22, 2022. 

8. Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) shares slipped into the red, ending 0.5 per cent lower for the day at Rs 1,365.2 apiece on BSE, after the auto major's quarterly net profit fell short of analysts' expectations.

9. The rupee finished barely stronger at 82.50 against the US dollar. 

10. European markets retreated on Friday, mirroring their Asian peers, as traders gauged the prospects of a prolonged global monetary policy tightening. The pan-European Stoxx 600 index was down 0.6 per cent at the last count. S&P 500 futures were down half a per cent, suggesting a weak start ahead on Wall Street. On Thursday, the S&P 500, the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq Composite dropped around one per cent each.
