Correction took a back seat today as bulls returned in the market but with a cautious view providing a healthy support to the otherwise sagging market.The market, which had slipped for last three sessions, remained firm as hectic buying action was witnessed since early trades that lasted through the session. The Sensex received a major boost from the firm US and Asian markets and resumed with a huge positive gap of 370 points at 14,512. The relentless buying in index heavyweights, banking, metal, oil and capital goods stocks propelled the index to an intra-day high of 14,680, up 538 points over its last close. However, the profit bookings amid Sensex pivotal stocks saw the index shed 273 points to touch the day's low of 14,407 towards the close. But, the buying interest thereafter kept the Sensex stable and the index finally ended the session with the gains of 286 points at 14,428. The broad based Nifty surged 101 points at 4209.
