A few attempts made to reverse direction of the market proved futile and the day ended on a negative note.<\/p>\n<p>At close, the benchmark KSE-100 index recorded a decrease of 196.01 points, or 0.44%, to settle at 44,863.11 points.<\/p>\n<p>Arif Habib Limited, in its report, stated that the market dropped further with a decline of 278 points during the session. It ended down by 196 points.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSelling was evident across the board, but had the most impact on cement, fertiliser and steel sectors,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n<p>Financial results failed to generate the usual interest among investors, perhaps due to the upcoming budget right after Ramazan and a long \u201chibernating period\u201d before the next financial results would be announced, it said.<\/p>\n<p>JS Global analyst Muhammad Mubashir said that the market came under pressure amid the current rollover week.

The value of shares traded during the day was Rs13.6 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Shares of 375 companies were traded. At the end of the day, 137 stocks closed higher, 230 declined and eight remained unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>Hascol Petroleum was the volume leader with 43.9 million shares, gaining Rs0.77 to close at Rs9.58.
