Market Roundup

The KSE-100 Index lost nearly 382 points during the departed week and settled at 40,187-mark, i.e. down by 0.94% as compared to the previous week’s closing of 40,569 points.

According to the report by AKD Securities, surge in COVID -19 cases (avg. positivity rate of 6.7% vs. 5.6% previous week) and announcement of smart/micro lockdowns in major metropolitan centres dampened market sentiments.

Furthermore, elections in Gilgit-Baltistan that took place over the weekend also added to the uncertainty in the bourse despite the decisive victory or ruling party.
