November 17, 2021 (MLN): The capital markets on Wednesday opened on a negative note as the benchmark KSE-100 index dipped more than 470 points in early hours before settling the day with the loss of 348.49 points or a 0.75 percent decline to close at 46,194.42.

The market was knocked down by the hike of interest rate fear in SBP’s out-of-schedule MPC meeting set for Friday 19th Nov 2021, a market closing note by Aba Ali Habib cited.
