KARACHI, November 6, 2026: Pakistan’s benchmark KSE-100 Index ended Friday’s session at 173,886.68 points, a decline of 1,493.18 points, or 0.85%, from its previous close of 175,379.86, according to official Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) data.
How the market performed
The index traded between 172,809.89 and 174,369.19 during the session. The closing level remained below the previous day’s finish as the market gave back part of its earlier gains.
These figures describe the benchmark index rather than the performance of every listed company. Individual shares and sectors can move in different directions even when the overall index falls.
What does a 1,493-point fall mean?
A points-based decline can sound large when an index trades at a high numerical level. The percentage change offers additional context: Friday’s fall was 0.85% compared with the previous close.
Daily moves may reflect changes in investor expectations, company-specific developments, market liquidity and broader economic conditions. Although the session was widely described as profit-taking, exchange closing data alone cannot establish the motives behind individual trades.
