Market Moves:
Sixteen - Not so Sweet !!!
Weak overnight US cues, tension in Korean peninsula and further worsening of debt crisis in Europe were villains of the day. Stocks were sold off as fear gripped the bourses. All the sectoral indices ended in the negative. Sensex slipped below level of 16,000 for the first time since February 11, to marginally recover and end the session a tad above the sweet-spot.
