Karachi, June 30, 2025 – In a dazzling display of investor confidence and bullish momentum, the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) roared to an all-time high level on the final trading day of fiscal year 2024-25.
The benchmark KSE-100 index surged to a record-shattering level of 125,627 points, capping off the fiscal year with a bang.
The PSX said good-bye to FY25 in sensational style, registering a massive gain of 1,248 points from Friday’s close of 124,379. During intraday trading, the index even touched an astonishing level of 125,748, before settling just below at 125,627 — marking a phenomenal one-day leap of 1%.
According to market experts at Topline Securities, the PSX carried forward its fiery momentum from last week, fueled by powerful fiscal year-end flows and a critical macroeconomic boost: China’s rollover of $3.4 billion in commercial loans. This external inflow enabled Pakistan to meet the IMF’s tough foreign reserves benchmark of $14 billion — instantly energizing investor sentiment and lifting the PSX to a historic level.
Leading the charge on this euphoric day were index heavyweights such as FFC, HBL, UBL, BAHL, POL, FABL, and PKGP, who collectively added a staggering 724 points to the index. Their performance not only pushed the PSX to a new level, but also reinforced expectations of strong corporate earnings and economic stability ahead.
Trading activity was equally explosive, with over 1,141 million shares changing hands and total turnover hitting a jaw-dropping PKR 35.1 billion. Volume leader WorldCall Telecom (WTL) saw an eye-popping 139.8 million shares traded. In terms of traded value, major players included PABC (PKR 1.50bn), FABL (PKR 1.22bn), NATF (PKR 1.10bn), OGDC (PKR 957.92mn), PPL (PKR 789.47mn), PSO (PKR 736.85mn), and FFC (PKR 659.95mn).
With the PSX now sitting at its highest-ever level, analysts believe the market is well-poised to continue its upward trajectory into the new fiscal year. Backed by robust fundamentals, improved liquidity, and global support, the PSX has signaled to the world that it’s entering FY26 with unmatched momentum and a new level of investor confidence.
