Jaiprakash Associates Ltd: Beautiful Chart
After relaxation of the FDI Norms for the construction sector, the National Democratic Alliance government is planning to exempt public-private partnership (PPP) projects from the need to obtain consent of affected families and the mandatory social-impact assessment, through amendments to the land acquisition law. This is going to another, good news for the stocks in the construction sector--the scrips like J P Associates Ltd (Rs.33.15), IVRCL Ltd (Rs.19.70), etc.would be one of the biggest beneficiaries. 

Moreover, today, eight metals shares fell by 0.76% to 2.79% on BSE on weak Chinese economic data. The S&P BSE Metal index had underperformed the market over the past one month till 3 November 2014, rising 4.20% compared with 4.86% rise in the Sensex. The index had also underperformed the market in past one quarter, falling 7.61% as against Sensex's 9.34% rise. 

However, low price of Steel (or metal) is positive for the construction sector. China is the world's largest consumer of steel, copper and aluminum.
