KARACHI:
Bulls dominated trading at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) during the first trading session on Monday after the week-long Eid holidays amid renewed optimism.
Market players took cue from a host of positive developments during the week. Investor sentiment, which kept on fluctuating on the last trading day (May 6) before the long break, settled down due to clarity on the economic front.
A drop in Covid-19 cases coupled with positive expectations about the upcoming budget kept the investment climate attractive.
Lending further support to the rally, Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) on Wednesday (May 12) conducted a semi-annual review to recompose its global indexes.
