The Pakistan Stock Exchange concluded today with a negative trend, as the KSE-100 Index declined amid selling pressure in heavyweight stocks.

The benchmark index closed at 152,740.38 points, down by 1,551.88 points. The trading session remained volatile, with the index moving between a high of 153,322.97 points and a low of 150,728.18 points.

The session began at 152,698.52 points, but sustained selling pushed the market into negative territory. The -1.01% change reflects weak investor sentiment during the day.

Trading activity remained moderate with 147.44 million shares, while FYTD returns stayed positive at 21.58%. However, CYTD performance remained negative at -12.25%, indicating continued pressure.

Stocks like HBL and FATIMA provided support, while losses in ENGROH, UBL, and PPL weighed heavily on the market.

The PSX concluded today with cautious sentiment as investors continue to monitor economic developments.
