The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) hit a historic milestone on July 14, 2025, as the KSE-100 Index surged beyond the 135,000-point mark for the first time. By midday, it stood at 136,119.27 points — a 1.37% increase — continuing a strong upward trend fueled by robust investor sentiment, economic stability, and favorable government policies.
The bullish momentum follows a 6.1% gain the previous week, supported by positive indicators such as record remittances of $38.3 billion in FY25, a 43% year-on-year rise in auto sales, and improved foreign exchange reserves, which climbed to $14.5 billion — a 39-month high.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif praised the PSX’s performance, calling it “a reflection of the business community’s growing confidence” and emphasized the government’s focus on pro-business reforms. Analysts credit structural reforms, easing inflation, and Pakistan’s recent $1.3 billion IMF Resilience and Sustainability Facility for restoring investor confidence.
While experts foresee continued gains, some caution that profit-taking may cool off the rally. Still, as corporate earnings season kicks in and macroeconomic indicators remain strong, market optimism persists.
