KARACHI: Due to extreme caution in front of the FATF verdict on Pakistan and restive political undercurrents, stocks managed to stabilise on the borders of the green on Tuesday, but they were unable to advance much farther, according to dealers.The KSE-100 Shares Index, the primary indicator of the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the nation’s premier exchange, increased 84 points or 0.20 percent to close the day at 41,839 points. After fluctuating between a day high of 42,007.23 and a day low of 41,755.45, the market finally settled at that value.
In a post-market report, Topline Securities stated that the encouraging US State Department statement on Pakistan’s nuclear programme and the nation’s expected inclusion on the FATF annual review whitelist gave stocks a cause to remain upbeat.
