The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) benchmark KSE-100 index climbed nearly 500 points on Friday, extending a multi-session rally driven by persistent buying interest.

The index hovered around the 184,992 level, maintaining momentum from the previous day's surge past the 185,000 psychological mark.

This marks the fourth consecutive day of gains for the Pakistani benchmark, following a three-day winning streak that saw the index break through key resistance levels.

The sustained upward trajectory reflects growing investor confidence and targeted value buying across the market, according to local reporting.

The rally in Pakistan mirrors broader positive sentiment across South Asian equity markets.

Indian benchmarks have also posted steady gains in recent sessions, with the Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex recording modest increases as regional investors maintain a constructive stance on emerging market equities.
