(Web Desk): The buying rally continued at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Monday, fueled by optimism over the IMF deal. The benchmark KSE-100 Index gained 663 points, closing at 116,199.59, marking an increase of 0.57%. The index reached an intra-day high of 116,626.82 during the session.
Positive momentum was observed across key sectors, with notable buying activity in automobile assemblers, commercial banks, oil and gas marketing companies (OMCs), and other index-heavy stocks like MARI, OGDC, PPL, PSO, SNGPL, MCB, MEBL, and NBP.
