Pakistan's KSE-100 rises 0.3% to 153267.40 after open
The Pakistan Stock Exchange (KSE) 100 index closed at 153,267.40 on September 2, 2025, marking a 0.3% increase from the previous session's close. This rise comes on the heels of a robust performance over the past month, with the index climbing by 6.28% [1].The index's performance has been driven by strong gains in banking and cement stocks, with major players like Bank AL Habib Ltd. (BAHL), United Bank Ltd. (UBL), Lucky Cement Ltd. (LUCK), Meezan Bank Ltd. (MEBL), and Engro Corporation Ltd. (ENGRO) contributing significantly to the rally [2].
The KSE-100's recent surge has been attributed to improved investor confidence and macroeconomic stability. The country's economy has shown signs of stabilization following the IMF bailout and upgrades by international ratings agencies. Inflation has eased from a peak of 38% in 2023 to 4.1% in July 2025, while the rupee has stabilized against the dollar [2].
Looking ahead, the KSE-100 is expected to trade at 146,715.47 points by the end of this quarter, according to Trading Economics' global macro models and analysts' expectations. In the next 12 months, the index is forecasted to trade at 141,157.17 points [1].
