The Pakistan Stock Exchange closed almost flat on Wednesday after a sharp recent rally, with the benchmark KSE-100 index adding 118 points in a volatile trading session.
Investor sentiment remained mixed as market participants opted for profit-taking following strong gains in previous sessions, while others stayed cautious amid uncertainty over near-term economic and policy direction.
Trading activity saw swings between gains and losses throughout the day, reflecting a lack of clear triggers to sustain the earlier momentum.
Despite the subdued close, analysts said underlying sentiment remains supported by recent bullish trends, though investors are now waiting for fresh cues to determine the market’s next direction.
