Pakistan Stock Exchange Halts Trading As KSE-30 Falls 7% Amid Tensions With India.
Pakistan temporarily suspended trading on its stock market after the benchmark KSE-30 index plummeted 7.2%, marking a second straight session of steep losses. The selloff follows Indian military strikes on multiple terrorist targets across Pakistan under the operation codenamed Operation Sindoor.
In contrast, Indian equity markets remained largely stable. Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty traded flat, showing resilience despite escalating geopolitical tensions with the neighboring country.
