Historic Surge: PSX's Record-breaking Rally Amid Eased Tensions

  • On Monday, the Pakistan Stock Exchange recorded its largest one-day increase in 26 years, with the KSE-100 index jumping by more than 9,900 points to close at 117,104.11 in Karachi.
  • This surge followed easing geopolitical tensions between Pakistan and India, marked by a ceasefire agreement and an approved IMF loan tranche that boosted investor confidence.
  • Trading was briefly suspended as a circuit breaker due to extreme fluctuations amid strong buying activity driven by improved geopolitical and economic outlooks.
  • The KSE-100 index experienced a historic intraday increase of 9.26%, closing at 117,297.73 points—surpassing by more than twice the magnitude of its previous largest single-day gain from November 2024.
  • Although Monday saw a strong rally, the PSX ended the previous week largely with losses due to escalating Pakistan-India tensions and bearish market conditions, indicating that investors may remain cautious moving forward.
