Resultantly, the stock hit its lower circuit.<\/p>\n<p>Selling pressure was observed across the board with UBL contributing to the losses among banking sector stocks with the exception of HBL that maintained its level above last day\u2019s closing price.<\/p>\n<p>Sectors contributing to the performance included technology (-133 points), cement (-60 points), exploration and production (-50 points), oil and gas marketing companies (-46 points) and banks (-42 points).<\/p>\n<p>Individually, stocks that contributed positively to the index included Bank AL Habib (+19 points), HBL (+14 points), Standard Chartered Bank (+6 points), Shifa International Hospitals (+6 points) and AGP Limited (+5 points).<\/p>\n<p>Stocks that contributed negatively were TRG Pakistan (-105 points), Hubco (-30 points), Systems Limited (-28 points), NBP (-24 points) and National Refinery (-23 points).<\/p>\n<p>JS Global analyst Muhammad Mubashir said that bears dominated the market as the KSE-100 index lost 601 points to close the session at 44,262.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe market opened on a positive note, but could not breach the intra-day resistance level of 45,100 as rising Covid-19 concerns shattered investors\u2019 confidence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Overall volumes were recorded at 294 million shares. Ghani Global Holdings (-4.2%), TRG Pakistan (-5.4%), Telecard Limited (-6.3%), WorldCall Telecom (-4.8%) and Hascol Petroleum (-7.4%) led the volume charts as they cumulatively contributed 37% to the aggregate volumes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe expect the market to remain volatile due to Covid-19 concerns and recommend investors to book profits on the higher side and wait for sharp dips to accumulate value stocks in cement, refinery and steel sectors,\u201d the analyst said.<\/p>\n<p>Overall trading volumes rose to 293.7 million shares compared with Thursday\u2019s tally of 280.7 million. The value of shares traded during the day was Rs13.8 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Shares of 367 companies were traded. At the end of the day, 84 stocks closed higher, 273 declined and 10 remained unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>Ghani Global Holdings was the volume leader with 34.8 million shares, losing Rs1.7 to close at Rs38.68.
