The business day commenced with stability in the interbank exchange rate of the American dollar, holding steady at the same rate as the previous day.
At the interbank market, the value of the dollar remained constant at 279 Pakistani rupees and 60 paisas. This rate mirrors the closing rate of the dollar in the interbank market at the end of the previous business day, indicating a lack of significant fluctuations overnight.
However, the situation in the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) presents a mixed trend as trading begins. The PSX’s benchmark 100-index experienced a slight increase of 14 points, reaching 61,573 points. This marks a modest rise compared to the closing figure of 61,559 points recorded the day before.
While the interbank exchange rate of the dollar remains stable, the stock exchange is witnessing some fluctuation at the start of the trading day. Despite this, the overall sentiment seems relatively stable, with investors closely monitoring developments in both the currency and stock markets.
The slight increase in the PSX index suggests cautious optimism among investors, as they navigate through the early stages of the trading session. Continued monitoring of both the interbank exchange rates and stock market trends will be essential to gauge the direction of the day’s trading activities and market sentiment.
