complete understanding on the issue..
see firstly the stock market going upto 22k was never justified.
if u talk about development of economy then the market should have ideally reached a maximum of 16-17k.
but it reached a astonioshing figure of 22k, majorly because of FII's. FII's funded alot in INDIA and CHINA in last 2-3 years. A big reason for their investing was that new rules were passes by INDIAN GOVT. which allowed better participation of these FII's in INDIA MARKET.
now with a lot of money entering into the INDIAN economy, the companies started expansion plans and all. so infrastructural development and hiring of new staff etc started.
this had a positive impact on the market image of the companies. it is a well known fact that "90% MARKET WORKS ON SENTIMENTS". so with all this development, the market sentiments for these companies grew and their share prices also increased like anything.
this was the major reason for the market going to 22k.
NOW THE DOWNFALL:-
market came back to 9k because of the following events:-
1) US market crashed because of housing bubble, so most of the banks over there went bankrupt, and market sentiments in US were bad.
2) US is an economy which has huge impact on other economies of the world. so when US economy crashed, all other economies trading with it also felt the stress.
3) but the major reason is the withdrawl of funds by FII's, which all of a sudden took away all the money companies had got due to investment of FII's. now when the moeny went away, all the developmental work stopped.
4) the market sentiments about the companies went bad in INDIA, due to this outflow and market crashed and ended at below 8k...
