During early trade, the KSE-100 index jumped by more than 700 points and touched 189,427. Heavy buying was seen in key sectors including banking, energy and cement.

Market experts say improving economic indicators played a major role in this rally. Gradual easing of inflation and positive expectations about interest rates lifted investor mood.

Progress on the IMF programme also supported the market. Analysts added that stable exchange rate conditions and renewed foreign investor interest further strengthened confidence.

In the previous session, the KSE-100 index had closed at 188,621 points. Today’s strong rally helped the market set a new all-time record.

Investors are actively focusing on profitable and fundamentally strong stocks, showing optimism about near-term market direction.

Economic analysts believe the upward trend may continue if economic stability holds. However, they advise investors to stay cautious and plan investments carefully due to market swings.

The market is reacting to better economic signals. Confidence is improving slowly. If stability continues, buying interest may stay strong. Still, sudden changes can happen, so careful decisions remain important.
