December's first trading session saw a somewhat unusual situation. While the last trades of the day in DDL and DIH both ended higher than the previous session, the average price at which DDL shares traded actually ended one tic lower at 7.2.

Since the index is based on the average of prices recorded during the session this pushed the index down 3.7 index points or 0.33% to close at 1,128.9.
