Stock Traders expected market to panick and make new low as the news from ongoing Greece crisis arrived. The Greece ruling party law makers called for the resignation of existing PM George Papandreou, whose government has agreed to tight measures as suggested by EU, and IMF in turn for a bail out.

The Greece markets and European markets fell 1-2% on the news and recoverd later on. However Indian market maintained ground and rose in last hour despite this bad news which has again reinforced the bullish undertone in the market persisting through out the beginning of this present derivatives expiry. Media reports suggests the market inched up as European markets showed strength and hopes that the Greece referendum will not happen. Some global experts are also contending that a Greek default might in fact be welcomed by the markets and not responded with a panick.
