What is sensex?
Sensex, in simple words, is the combined value of stocks of 30 specific companies listed on Bombay stock exchange (BSE). BSE can revise this list of 30 over the time. So, if Sensex fluctuates, it shows on the economy as well. For example, if Sensex goes up people become more intrigued in buying stocks because they believe that economy is going to grow. But, if Sensex goes down, people tend to stop investing in economy.
