Despite a further drop in India's annual inflation rate to 6.61%, the Indian stock market continued its downward trend on Friday with the Sensex falling 239.8 points. The market has already factored in that inflation will remain in an acceptable range but investors still lack confidence in the economic system and more declines are expected. Most sector indices also declined with the exceptions of the healthcare sector which rose and Maruti Suzuki and Tata Power which increased slightly.
