The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) plunged by 6,560.82 points, or 5.78%, on Wednesday due to heightened military tensions between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack. The KSE-100 index dropped from 113,568.50 to 107,007.68 before a brief recovery. Analysts attributed the decline to fears of military escalation, with cautious optimism that the conflict may remain short-lived. The market was briefly suspended due to the sharp fall, marking the second-largest intraday loss in points.
