Sensex is an indicator of the performance of the stock market of a country as well as its economic development.  Stock market index reflects the movement of share prices.  But, what determines the share prices of a company has always been a matter of debate among the investors. An investor aims to buy stocks at low and sell at high and thereby earn returns.  But once an investor decides to buy a share, it will be very difficult to predict whether the price will go up or down.  Stock prices perform well if the fundamental of the firms are strong.
