BAPLR1, a rights line, fell Rs 0.59 to Rs 0.03, or 95.16%, on 687m, down in each of the ten sessions since its Rs 9.62 close of 23rd October and now 99.69% below it, and accounted for almost half of the tape.

Foreign (FIPI) net
−PKR 481.20m (−$1.74M)
Local (LIPI) net
+PKR 481.20m
Source: NCCPL FIPI/LIPI · settled 6 Nov 2026
Foreign investors were net sellers of PKR 481.20m (USD 1.7m); local investors were net buyers of PKR 481.20m. The internals read as a weak, heavy session: 277 decliners against 190 advancers, 949m traded in declining names against 526m in advancing ones, though 687m of that was BAPLR1, and 18 of 33 sectors lower. It was the thirteenth straight foreign net sell, taking the total to PKR 15.91bn from 21st October.
Outlook
- •The index slipped 0.85% to 173,886.68, ending a four-day run of gains with its steepest daily fall since 23rd October, but it still closed the week 4.49% above last Friday, 7.09% above the 23rd October closing low and 1.68% above the 24th July low of 171,021.20, and above every close from 7th September to 4th November.
- •Breadth turned negative, 277 decliners against 190 advancers and 18 of 33 sectors lower after 364 advancers on Thursday, and the 1,480m tape, the heaviest in more than two months, was dominated by 687m in the BAPLR1 rights line, leaving 793m in the rest of the board.
- •PASL rose a fourth straight day, 14.37% on 25m, to more than double its 2nd November close, and TISL and WTL gained on 141m and 72m, while Cement, Commercial Banks and Technology and Communication all closed lower on the average, by 1.22%, 0.47% and 0.54%.
What to watch
- •Whether the index recovers toward Thursday's 175,379.86 - that close was 0.86% above Friday's 173,886.68
- •Whether the BAPLR1 rights line, down 95.16% to Rs 0.03 on 687m, keeps taking a large share of the tape
- •Whether foreign selling continues - Friday's PKR 481.20m was the thirteenth straight net sell, PKR 15.91bn in all from 21st October
- •USD/PKR, SBP rate signals and the global crude tape
