Bourse closes week on upbeat note
The Colombo bourse closed the week yesterday on an upbeat note with tidy gains in both indices on what brokers called a ``decent'' turnover of Rs.2.36 billion, down from the previous day's Rs.2.8 billion, with 125 gainers comfortably outpacing 71 losers.
A nasty way to end the week, as the indices closed sharply lower, not far off the session lows, but they did rally in the last hour, sharply, although giving it back towards the end of the day.
