Karachi: The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) has made history today, with its benchmark KSE-100 Index crossing the psychological barrier of 130,000 points and reaching an all-time high.
The stock market opened with a strong bullish trend, as the KSE-100 Index gained a remarkable 2,212 points in early trading, pushing the market to over 130,412 points. This surge continues a record-breaking rally that has seen the PSX consistently achieve new highs in recent sessions.
The sustained upward momentum is attributed to a combination of factors, including easing inflation, positive macroeconomic indicators, and renewed investor confidence following fiscal reforms announced in the federal budget for FY26. Analysts note that a sharp decline in June’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) to 3.2% year-on-year has significantly bolstered market sentiment.
This historic performance reflects growing optimism in Pakistan’s economic outlook and underscores the market’s resilience and potential for further upside, as economic indicators stabilize and reforms gain traction.
