Karachi: In an unprecedented surge, the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) reached a milestone, hitting a 52-week high with an index level of 50,271.69 and a market capitalization of Rs 19,162.20 billion. This remarkable achievement underscores the robust performance and investor confidence in the market.

The day’s trading witnessed a significant rise in volume and value, with total turnover recorded at 1,285.64 million shares, valued at Rs 65.77 billion. This surge in activity marks a 1.10% daily increase in the index and a year-to-date growth of 38.94% in calendar year 2025.

Notable performers included AIRLINK, which saw a 10.00% increase, and FABL, which rose by 9.64%. However, not all participants shared in the success. NPL and NCPL experienced losses, with declines of 9.04% and 9.03%, respectively.

On the global stage, the performance of regional markets varied. Korea’s KOSPI led with a 1.3% increase, while the Philippines’ PSI lagged with a 0.5% decrease. Despite these mixed results, the PSX’s robust performance remains a standout in the region.

Investors and analysts are closely watching these developments, as the PSX continues to exhibit resilience and potential for further growth in the coming months.
