KARACHI (Dunya News) - The Pakistan Stock Exchange witnessed a strong recovery on Tuesday as bullish momentum returned to the market, pushing the benchmark KSE-100 index back above the 170,000-point level during intraday trading.
At the start of the trading session, the market saw a sharp surge, with the index gaining more than 2,000 points, reaching an intraday high of 171,006 points. Investor confidence remained visible throughout early trading hours as buying activity dominated key sectors.
Although some profit-taking was observed later in the session, the overall positive trend persisted, and the market closed on a strong note. The KSE-100 index settled at 170,330 points, recording an increase of 1,376 points compared to the previous close.
The positive performance marked a significant rebound after the preceding trading day, when the index had declined by 1,525 points to close at 168,953 points.
