Practical example: What this means for a portfolio today

If you held 100 shares each of Indus Motor (2,109.36) and Thal (570.49) and 200 shares of Atlas Honda (1,380.64), today’s moves imply paper gains on Indus and Thal and losses on Atlas Honda; actual portfolio change depends on your weightings and whether positions were intraday or held overnight. Use PSX volume & last price columns to calculate exact P&L. :contentReference[oaicite:16]{index=16}

Why KSE-100 rose while KSE-30 fell

KSE-100 is broader and includes large cap performers that advanced enough to lift the index (+0.13%), while the KSE-30, with different weightings, showed -0.22% due to weakness in its constituent stocks. This divergence highlights index composition risk and the importance of checking the constituent list before comparing indices. :contentReference[oaicite:17]{index=17}

What to watch next (data driven triggers)

  • Price & volume on major scrips (Indus Motor, Thal, Atlas Honda, EMCO, Sazgar) high volume confirms conviction. :contentReference[oaicite:18]{index=18}
  • Sector rotation between banks, autos and energy check PSX sector pages for intra day momentum updates. :contentReference[oaicite:19]{index=19}
  • Macro headlines (Rupee moves, SBP statements) these can flip sentiment quickly; always cross check PSX data with real time newsfeeds.

Conclusion
