KARACHI:
The stock market bounced back on Friday and recouped more than half of the huge loss of nearly 900 points that the benchmark index suffered in the previous trading session.
During the day, the Sensitive Price Indicator (SPI) for the week ended March 4, 2021 was released, which recorded an increase of 15% year-on-year, generating investor interest in bank stocks.
Meanwhile, the international crude oil prices jumped more than 2%, hitting their highest in nearly 14 months, which also lent support to optimism in the stock market.
