Weekly Market Roundup
The benchmark KSE-100 Index closed the week at 170,884.59 points, gaining 372.73 points or 0.22% on a week-on-week basis from 170,511.86 points recorded on September 11, 2026. The weekly gain was supported by improved investor sentiment following a moderation in global crude oil prices, easing concerns over potential supply disruptions, and growing expectations of renewed diplomatic engagement between the US and Iran. The decline in oil prices and reduced supply-side risks provided some relief to market participants, while hopes for de-escalation in regional tensions encouraged risk-taking and triggered buying interest across the Pakistan Stock Exchange.
