On August 12, 2025, the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) experienced a modest increase in the KSE-100 index, rising by 75.48 points, or 0.05%, to close at 147,005.32.

Analysts observed a cautious sentiment among investors, with selective buying in banking stocks being counterbalanced by profit-taking in the fertiliser and energy sectors. Trading volumes rose to 691.7 million shares, up from 611.2 million, while the total traded value increased to Rs 44.6 billion, compared to Rs 44 billion the previous day.

In today’s trading session, mixed sentiment was observed, with the KSE-100 fluctuating before ultimately settling slightly higher, maintaining the 147,000 level. Bank Alfalah, HBL, Systems Limited, Meezan Bank, and National Foods collectively gained 417 points, while Fauji Fertiliser, Mari Petroleum, Oil and Gas Development Company, Pakistan State Oil, and Bank AL Habib collectively lost 527 points. Yousuf Weaving Mills led in trading volume with 46.3 million shares, closing at Rs6.09, which is an increase of Rs1.

Positive developments included progress on a trade deal between Pakistan and the United States, along with Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb’s indications of significant U.S. investments. Barrick Gold’s pursuit of a $3.5 billion loan for the Reko Diq project, supported by U.S. institutions, has increased optimism. Najib pointed out that resolving circular debt could lead to further gains, although a mild correction is possible. Support is seen at 145,000, while resistance is noted at 150,000

Of 482 traded companies, 208 gained, 242 declined, and 32 remained unchanged. The market’s consolidation reflects cautious optimism amid mixed macroeconomic signals, including a widened trade deficit and declining reserves. Continued policy advancements could sustain upward momentum, impacting investor confidence and economic stability.
