Earlier on Wednesday, the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) reached a historical maximum, reaching almost 118,000 points, since the market extended its winning streak, winning more than 950 points.

This increase was promoted by a robust local institutional purchase and the possible resolution of the problem of long -standing circular debt in the electricity sector.

Positive expectations around the approval of the first review of the IMF under the installation of extended funds of $ 7 billion also increased investor confidence.

The potential approval of the IMF of the government’s circular debt management plan and the elimination of pending fees for independent energy producers (IPP) relieved concerns in the energy sector.

The key sectors, which include cement, commercial banks, oil and gas, fertilizers and energy, saw a strong purchase, which led the index to a maximum of 118,244 per day.

However, companies such as Fauji Fertilizer CO, Gen Fertilizers and Pakistan Oilfields slightly dragged the index down.

The negotiation volume increased to 544.2 million shares, with a total value of RS32.3 billion. In particular, Pakistan’s international bulk terminal was the volume leader, followed by Pak Elektron and WorldCall Telecom. Foreign investors sold shares worth RS963.9 million.

Analysts are optimistic, predict the continuous bullish impulse, with expectations of greater progress in the IMF review and the resolution of the circular debt.
