Institutional investors led the rally amid portfolio rebalancing and optimism about the economic direction set by the newly approved budget.<br \/>\nInvestor sentiment was further buoyed by robust Roshan Digital Account (RDA) inflows, which reached $10.38 billion by May 2025. Monthly inflows rose 13% to $201 million while the number of accounts climbed to 823,224, reinforcing confidence in Pakistan\u2019s external account stability. Key index movers included Fauji Fertiliser Company, Lucky Cement, Meezan Bank, Pakistan Oilfields and Engro Holdings, which collectively contributed 866 points to the day\u2019s gains.<br \/>\nMarket breadth remained strong, with 773 million shares traded valuing at Rs37.6 billion. Bank Makramah led the volumes chart with 79.7 million shares changing hands. The benchmark index posted a weekly gain of 3.63%, or 4,356 points, over five sessions.<br \/>\nAfter opening at 118,272, the index touched a high of 125,285 and a low of 115,887, closing well above the key 120,000 psychological mark. Market analysts view the KSE-100\u2019s ability to hold above the 122,000 level as a sign of strong momentum.<br \/>\nA sustained stability above 120,000 could pave the way for a fresh rally towards 130,000, driven by improving macroeconomic indicators and rising investor confidence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KSE-100 index surges 2,333 points as strong RDA inflows, budget approval drive rally Karachi The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) closed at another historic high on Friday as investor confidence soared following the approval of federal budget for FY26.
