Sensex slides further; mid-cap, small-cap shares up

Mumbai, November 20: The benchmark Sensex recovered part of its early losses after tumbling by 222 points in the initial trade on weak global cues, while the mid-cap and small-cap indices continued to be firm on sustained investment buying support.

The Bombay Stock Exchange barometer later recovered partially and was quoted at 19,550.55, down 82.81 points from Monday's close of 19,633.36.

The broader S&P CNX Nifty of the National Stock Exchange was also down by 38.30 points at 5,869.35 from previous close of 5,907.65.

Asian Markets were sharply down on Tuesday’s morning following a fresh meltdown on Wall Street on Monday night due to concerns of more mortgage losses.
